Flexibility is required both for injury prevention and to enhance the effect of the stretch shortening cycle. In fact, some advanced training methods combine plyometrics and intensive stretching in order to both protect the joint and make it more receptive to the plyometric benefits.ince then, the shock method of plyometrics is still being practiced for improvement of athletic performance by what appears to be a relatively limited number of athletes. These athletes still do depth jumps, the key exercise in the shock method, according to the guidelines established by Verkhoshansky.
Plyometrics & The Strength Training Program. In order for plyometric training to be at its most effective it should follow a phase of maximal strength training (2,3). The purpose of plyometrics is to improve the athletes capacity to apply more force more rapidly.Logically then, the greater the athletes ability to generate maximal force or strength to begin with, the more of it can be converted into sport-specific power.he purpose of plyometrics is to improve the athletes capacity to apply more force more rapidly.
