Download or read book Effects of Strength and Plyometric Training on Vertical Jump written by Jake Landon and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to generate lower body power is crucial for success in many sports. This is especially true with sports that contain sprinting and jumping. Training is a key component in generating and enhancing explosive power. PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to examine the effects of strength training and plyometrics training on the vertical jump. A five week program demonstrating the effects of strength training over that of body weight plyometrics will improve vertical jump performance for NCAA soccer athletes. METHODS: Subject were ten female NCAA division II athletes (soccer) volunteering. The study design was divided randomly into two groups. One group performed strength exercises (weighted) and the other group performed body weight plyometric drills. All groups were tested on the vertical jump before and after (pre/post) a five week training period. Both training groups attended a total of three sessions per week. All subjects were highly active and had previous experience in performing various jumps and drills from past sport activities. All subjects have had at least one year of experience in strength and plyometrics training, but had not systematically undergone consistent strength exercises and jumps. RESULTS: Subjects pre-means (SD)/post-means (SD) were the following: weight 64.5 (5.4)/65.5 (5.0); Height 168.7 (4.4) cm; vertical jump (cm) 46.8 (5.4)/49.5 (6.1); power (w) 3713.3 (240.1)/3896.7 (307.0). The WT group increased from pre/post by 3.8 cm. and the PT increased by 1 .5 cm. The findings of this study indicate there were no significant differences in the individual groups (WT vs. PT) but combining the two showed significant differences in vertical jump height.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of plyometric training on vertical jumping ability. The subjects consisted of the 14 non-injured players age (x age= 19.9 ± 1.4yr, x height = 185.4 ± 4.9cm, x mass = 78.5 + 5.4kg) on the Springfield College Men's Volleyball Team. All subjects took part in their regular two-hour in season volleyball training session 5-6 times per week for 8 weeks. The subjects were randomly assigned into control and experimental groups. The control group participated only in volleyball practice while the experimental group participated in a plyometric training program twice per week following the regular volleyball training sessions. The plyometric program consisted of depth jumps, box drills, high knee bounding drills and repetitive vertical jumps. Vertical jump height was measured, using the Vertec, pre- and post-training. A 2 X 2 repeated measures ANOVA showed no significant difference (p>.05) in mean vertical jump height between the control and the experimental groups. A significant difference (p

Download or read book Effects of Unilateral and Bilateral Lower Body Plyometric Training on Jump Ability and Agility Performance of Young Female Volleyball Players written by Tsz Yeung Kong and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 8-week unilateral and bilateral plyometric training program on jump ability and agility performance of young female volleyball players. Secondary school female volleyball players (N = 62, age = 14.56 ± 1.45 years, height = 159.14 ± 6.57 cm, weight = 53.55 ± 9.03 kg) were randomized and divided into three groups: the unilateral plyometric training group (UP), the bilateral plyometric training group (BP), and the control group (CON). For the UP and BP, the subjects completed 15 unilateral or bilateral plyometric training sessions over 8 weeks in addition to the regular volleyball training. For the CON, the subjects performed the regular volleyball training only. Pre-test and post-test were performed by all subjects before and after the intervention. The jump ability and agility performance were assessed by countermovement vertical jump (CVJ: double legs, right leg, and left leg), squat jump (SJ), 5 repeated block jumps (RBJ), standing long jump (SLJ), and T agility test. 2-way ANOVAs with repeated measures (3 groups x 2 times) were used to analyze the data. The results indicated that CVJ (right leg and left leg), RBJ, SLJ, and T agility test performance significantly increased (p .05) after 8 weeks for both unilateral and bilateral training, but there were no differences (p .05) between groups. Interaction effects (p .05) existed for the CVJ (right leg), RBJ, and T agility test, indicating that from pre-test to post-test the UP had greater improvement than the CON. The CVJ (double legs) and SJ did not differ (p .05) among types of training or from pre-test to post-test. It can be concluded that both unilateral and bilateral training are effective on improving most of the performance outcomes, but one program is not significantly better than the other in improving the jump ability and agility performance.
