Evaluating Plyometric Exercises Using Time to Stabilization
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2010Plyometric exercises are frequently used in strength and conditioning and rehabilitation programs because the landing phase of these exercises requires dynamic stabilization. This study examined the differences in landing stability of a variety of plyometric exercises by assessing time to stabilization (TTS), its reliability, and sex differences ...

Plyometric Exercise—A Word of Caution
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, 1992Abstract Plyometric exercises fall into the realm of potentially dangerous activities unless certain guidelines are followed. This article presents a brief history and explanation of the physical adaptations associated with plyometric training.

Myoelectric Activation and Kinetics of Different Plyometric Push-Up Exercises
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2011The kinetic and myoelectric differences between 3 types of plyometric push-ups were investigated. Twenty-seven healthy, physically active men served as subjects and completed both familiarization and testing sessions. During these sessions, subjects performed 2 series of 3 plyometric push-up variations in a counterbalanced order according to the ...

A literature overview of plyometrics as an exercise technique
South African Journal for Research in Sport, Physical Education and Recreation, 2007The purpose of this review study was to give a literature overview of the definition of plyometrics to explain the physiological principles that underlie plyometric training, to analyse the literature of the past six years so as to determine the effects of plyometric and combined programmes on a wide variety of performance components and finally, to ...

KINEMATIC RESPONSES TO PLYOMETRIC EXERCISES CONDUCTED ON COMPLIANT AND NONCOMPLIANT SURFACES
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2007Jumping is an important performance component of many sporting activities. A number of training modalities have been used to enhance jumping performance including plyometrics. The positive effects of plyometric training on jumping performance are a function of the stretch-shortening cycle phenomenon.

Current Concepts of Plyometric Exercises for the Lower Extremity
2019Many sport activities require explosive movements of the lower extremities. Athletes are returning back to competition following knee injuries and surgeries faster than anyone could have predicted 10 years ago. However, that has not always been in the best interest of the patient because of reinjury rates and not being able to return to the same ...

The effects of training status and exercise intensity on plyometric exercise volume
2010The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of training status and exercise intensity on the volume of repetitions completed before propulsive force output decreases below 90 percent of maximum force output. We also examined the effect of training status and exercise intensity on the change in eccentric rate of force development (E-RFD ...
