Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

In the abstract it is suggested to replace the term ...nine players with participants or study participants that attended

Abstract and Material and Methods: Concerning anthropometric data (body mass and height) measurement accuracy will not allow to present data with two decimal places.

Measurement procedure for anthropometric measurement has to prescribed in detail im Material and Methods section (and measurement accuray of the individual measurements has to be provided).

In previous studies it was determined that increases in movement velocity and acceleration led to an increase in EMG signal amplitude could you prescribe how movement velocity and acceleration was controlled in the two phases compared.

Reviewer 2 Report

Overall you had a very good paper. Your introduction and methods were very sound. The results section well organized. I would like you to add more to the discussion on the application aspect of this study. How can the results improve the practical application of strength and conditioning and sports rehabilitation professions. Also, there were a few sentences that needed editing due to unclarity or spelling errors (lines 44, 69, 174)

Reviewer 3 Report

The subject of the article is very interesting and suitable for publication in Applied Sciences. However, I suggest you include some minor comments:

Line 17, 18 Page1, I suggests an explanation of the shortcuts used: AD/PD, ESL/RA, ESI/EO, GM/RF, EMG. Shortcuts are explained later on, but this is not clear in the abstract.

Line 277, Page 10, He suggests redrafting the conclusions. In my opinion, there are too few of them and there are no specific results that were presented in the manuscript.
