Analyzing the study to evaluate the efficiency of the specific plyometric training programme for increasing accelerations power in high jump and long jump players.

INTRODUCTION : Players have explored a multitude of methods designed to enable them to jump higher, to achieve such goals, power is essential. Speed is considered as players best friend, the common question raised by almost all players and coaches is can speed and power be increased? Studies have shown that speed and power can be increased by 10% in most players. To achieve such goals through one of the most successful power training method called plyometric exercises. Long Jump, Sprinting is the products of three factors namely stride frequency, stride length, and anaerobic endurance. High jump, volley ball is a game of vertical jumping and lateral movements. It is important that the players work to improve their abilities in these areas to increase their performance by plyometric exercises jumping can be broken down in to three phases: preparatory, Propulsive and Flight Phase. There are several variables that need to be trained in Improving both high jump a long jump players. Some of the very important components are strength, power, flexibility, co-ordination etc. AIM : To evaluate the efficiency of the specific plyometric training programme for increasing acceleration power in high jump and long jump players. OBJECTIVES : 1. To evaluate the efficiency of low impact jumps in increasing accelerations power in high jump and long jump players. 2. To evaluate the efficiency of low reactive jumps in increasing accelerations power in high jump and long jump players. 3. To evaluate the efficiency of bounding exercise in increasing accelerations power in high jump and long jump players. BACKGROUND : Many athletes and coaches have reported that the specific plyometric training on high jump shows more power and strength output then in long jump players. This study focuses on the effectiveness in the high jump players, METHODS & MEASURES : Total 40 subjects were selected for this entire study and they were randomly allotted into the experimental group and control group consisting 20 subjects in each group. Parameters were measured initially and the end of 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th week of the plyometric program schedule. RESULTS : In this study, the results showed a significant increase in jumping performance in the experimental group. This improvement is due to the elastic energy storage and release, as appears the results from the changes in the level of neuromuscular activation and motor coordination, in response to plyometric training. CONCLUSION : From this study it is concluded that any training program will be successful only if sufficient time is allowed for adaptation to occur. The gain in power was noted by the increase on jumping performance of sergeant jump and standing broad jump.
