How to calculate
Estimate peak jump power using body mass and jump height.
Sayers estimate: peak power = 60.7 × jump height(cm) + 45.3 × mass(kg) − 2055
Worked example
Body mass (kg): 75; Jump height (cm): 45.
Estimated peak power: 4,074 W; Power per kilogram: 54.32 W/kg.
Assumptions and limits
This empirical equation is population-dependent and does not replace force-platform measurement. Technique and measurement method matter.
Results are rounded for display; calculations use unrounded values. Read our calculation methodology.
Understanding the result
Estimate peak jump power using body mass and jump height. Every assumption remains visible so the result can be checked or changed.
When this tool is useful
Use the vertical jump power for an initial estimate, comparison, or classroom calculation.
