1964 study

I’ve never tested any sprinters on their vertical and I don’t know of others doing it, though that doesn’t mean it isn’t done by some.
It is reasonable to assume that the VJ for lifters would be high just as the SLJ for shot-putters is great. Sprinters tend to be good at most tests but not first in most- except speed. SPers, OWL’s and Sprinters should be very close at the start but whether OWLs and SPers can remain close for 25y is debateable.
BTW, why would any test done at the Olympics be in yards??
