What is it about?
We assessed the correlation between body composition, multiple repeated sprint ability (MRSAB) tests, and vertical jump performance. The MRSAB test consisted of 2 repetitions of 4 movements (4x3m) separated by 30 seconds of passive recovery. The best time (BT), meantime (MT), total time (TT), and fatigue index (FI) were measured. Body composition was evaluated through dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). The Squat jump (SJ) test for explosive power and countermovement jump (CMJ) test for elastic power were used.

Why is it important?
Changes in body composition are important issues for the physical performance level of badminton players as regional excess body fat may cause deterioration, especially in repeated-sprint ability and jumping performance.

The formation of the manuscript was a long way requiring a solid collaboration and teamwork.
