The analysis of individual tendencies in the development of achievements of top athletes (triple jumpers)

Sažetak
During the period of at least eight years we have been analysing the results of 20 athletes (triple jump) through the graphic representation of result curves and by the polynomial regression analysis executed in the statistical package STAGRAPHICS. We have concluded that it is not necessary to specialize in triple jump too early and that it is better to do it at around 16 years of age, because of the increased risk of injuries. It is because of the late selection that the results of triple jumpers take unpredictable turns and the results are subject to high oscillations. Some other factors, like injuries and the specific quality of the technique, can be responsible for oscillations of results in jumping events. These factors, together with the late specialization in triple jump, can be the limiting factors in keeping up the results on the high level over a longer period of time (five to ten years).
