Overview

Experimental plyometric training improved lower-limb explosive power in 40 sprinters, indicating lasting performance benefits after detraining.

Key Points

  • MAIN FINDING: Plyometric training significantly enhanced lower-limb explosive power in sprinters over 6 weeks.
  • KEY EVIDENCE: The plyometric group increased squat jump power by 28.5% and improved 30 m sprint times significantly.
  • APPROACH: Forty male sprinters underwent plyometric or traditional strength training, followed by a 2-week detraining.
  • SIGNIFICANCE: Gains in explosive power from plyometric training were retained better than traditional strength training post-detraining.
