Plyometrics are often used to bridge the gap between strength and speed, and are a potent training method for enhancing athletic performance.| Science for Sport
What qualities should be trained and which exercises should be chosen, to maximise power development in athletes?| Science for Sport
The reactive strength index measures the reactive jump capacity of athletes, and how they cope with the stress from plyometric exercises.| Science for Sport
The Rate of Force Development (RFD) is a measure of explosive strength, and higher RFDs have been linked with better athletic performance.| Science for Sport
Force plates are used to analyse the ground reaction force of athletes during walks, runs, or other physical exercises like jumping. But how do coaches and athletes get the most out of them?| Science for Sport
