Purpose: to determine the effect of water plyometric training on such components motor skills as explosive power, agility and speed in young players. Develop practical recommendations for building a process improve athletes.
 Material methods: when divided into groups players was used parallel randomized method with creation experimental control equal 20 each group (age 16.25 ± 1.0 years, ...

Background: Plyometric training is a hybrid between strength and endurance training. This allows musclesexert maximum force in short intervals of time, with the goal increasing power (speed-strength) whichensures better agility police cadets. Agility has been defined by capacity to retain or determine thelocation body shifting its direction rapidly sequence movements. Agility, speed explosivepo...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of eight-week (2 days/week) training periods of plyometric exercises (PT) and neuromuscular electrostimulation (EMS) on jump height in young athletes. Squat jump (SJ), counter movement jump (CMJ) and drop jump (DJ) were performed to assess the effects of the training protocols 98 athletes (100 & 200m and 100m & 110m hurdles) voluntarily took ...

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of 12 weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with the effects of 12 weeks of plyometric exercise combined with HIIT (P+HIIT) on anthropometric, biochemical, and physical fitness data in young obese females. Sixty-eight participants (age, 16.6 ± 1.3 y; body mass, 82.8 ± 5.0 kg; body fat, 39.4% ± 3.3%; body mass index z score, 2.9 ± 0.4) ...

For many sporting activities, initial speed rather than maximal speed would be considered of greater importance to successful performance. The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between strength and power and measures of first-step quickness (5-m time), acceleration (10-m time), and maximal speed (30-m time). The maximal strength (3 repetition maximum [3RM]), power (30-kg ju...

Plyometric training has shown to improve vertical jump height, but the design and implementation of a plyometric programme for adolescents requires consideration several variables as well time season. The purpose this study was implement pragmatic that improves monitor effects 15 week off-season resistance on height in adolescent female volleyball players. Ten players (age: 15.1 ± 0.9 years, he...
