Ramírez-Campillo, R, Gallardo, F, Henriquez-Olguín, C, Meylan, CMP, Martínez, Álvarez, Caniuqueo, A, Cadore, EL, and Izquierdo, M. Effect of vertical, horizontal, combined plyometric training on explosive, balance, endurance performance young soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 29(7): 1784–1795, 2015—The aim this study was to compare the effects 6 weeks or vertical horizontal muscle endurance, balance performance. Forty players aged between 10 14 years were randomly divided into control (CG;...
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects different volume and training surfaces during a short-term plyometric program on neuromuscular performance. Twenty-nine subjects were randomly assigned 4 groups: control group (CG, n = 5), moderate (MVG, 9, 780 jumps), hard surface (MVGHS, 8, high (HVG, 7, 1,560 jumps). A series tests performed by before after 7 weeks training. These measurement maximum strength (5 repetitions [5RMs]), drop jumps (DJs) varying heights (20, 40, 60 cm), squat...
The aim of the study was to compare effects bilateral, unilateral, or combined bilateral and unilateral plyometric training (PT) on muscle power output, endurance, balance performance adaptations in young soccer players. Four groups players (age 11.4 ± 2.2 years) were divided into control group (CG; n = 14), (BG; 12), (UG; 16), + (B UG; 12). Players measured countermovement jump with arms, 5 multiple bounds test, 20-cm drop reactive strength index, maximal kicking velocity, sprint agility...

Intersession intrasession reliability validity of the My Jump app for measuring different jump actions in trained male female athletes. J Strength Cond Res 30(7): 2049-2056, 2016-The purpose this study was to analyze concurrent iPhone named height 40-cm drop jumps (DJs), countermovement (CMJs), squat (SJs). To do this, 21 athletes (age,...
Integrating specific training methods to improve explosive actions and endurance in youth soccer is an essential part of players' development. This study investigated the efficiency short-term vertical plyometric program within practice both young players. Seventy-six players were recruited assigned either a group (TG; n = 38; 13.2 ± 1.8 years) or control (CG; group. All trained twice per week, but TG followed 7-week implemented practice, whereas CG regular practice. Twenty-meter sprint time...
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect a short-term plyometric training program on explosive strength and endurance performance in highly competitive middle- long-distance runners. Athletes were randomly assigned control group (CG, n = 18, 12 men) an (TG, 10 men). Drop jump (DJ) from 20 (DJ20) 40 cm (DJ40), countermovement with arms (CMJA), 20-m sprint time, 2.4-km run time test carried out before after 6 weeks training. Also, combined standardized (CSP) analyzed. After...
In a randomised controlled trial design, effects of 6 weeks plyometric training on maximal-intensity exercise and endurance performance were compared in male female soccer players. Young (age 21.1 ± 2.7 years) players with similar load competitive background assigned to (women, n = 19; men, 21) control groups. Players evaluated for lower- upper-body exercise, 30 m sprint, change direction speed before after training. After intervention, the groups did not change, whereas both improved jumps...
Our purpose was to investigate the effects of low-volume, high-intensity interval training (HIT) on cardiometabolic risk and exercise capacity in women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Sedentary overweight/obese T2DM (age=44.5±1.8 years; BMI=30.5±0.6 kg/m(2)) were randomly assigned a tri-weekly running-based HIT program (n=13) or non-exercise control follow-up (CON; n=10). Glycemic control, lipid blood pressure levels, endurance performance, anthropometry measured before after (16...
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects maturation on power and sprint performance adaptations following 6 weeks plyometric training in youth soccer players during pre-season. Sixty male were categorized into 3 maturity groups (Pre, Mid Post peak height velocity [PHV]) then randomly assigned group control group. Vertical jump, standing long 20-m (with without ball) tests collected before- after-intervention. After intervention, Pre, Post-PHV showed significant (P ≤ 0.05) small...
Abstract Ramirez-Campillo, R, Alvarez, C, García-Pinillos, F, Sanchez-Sanchez, J, Yanci, Castillo, D, Loturco, I, Chaabene, H, Moran, and Izquierdo, M. Optimal reactive strength index: is it an accurate variable to optimize plyometric training effects on measures of physical fitness in young soccer players? J Strength Cond Res 32(4): 885–893, 2018—This study aimed compare the drop-jump using a fixed drop-box height (i.e., 30-cm [FIXED]) vs. optimal (OPT) 10-cm 40-cm: generating OPT index...
Our aim was to investigate the effects and prevalence of nonresponders (NR) high-intensity interval training (HIIT) resistance (RT) in women with insulin on cardiometabolic health parameters. Sedentary overweight/obese insulin-resistant (age = 33.5 ± 6.5 yr; body mass index 29.9 3.7 kg/m 2 ) were randomly assigned a triweekly HIIT program (HIIT; n 18) or (RT; 17). Anthropometry (body mass, fat muscle waist circumference, skinfold thickness), cardiovascular (blood pressure), metabolic...
