Effects of plyometric training, resistance training, combined plyometric and resistance training on volleyball players

The purpose of the study was to find out the Effects of plyometric training, resistance training, combined plyometric and resistance training on Volleyball players. To achieve the purpose of this research study, theinvestigator recruited total eighty women volleyball players (N=80) randomly who represented at intercollegiate / district level / zonal level / state level volleyball tournaments from Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh, India. The volleyball players age range from eighteen to twenty five years as per their Andhra Pradesh. The volleyball player’s age range from eighteen to twenty five years, Empirical Group-I acted as plyometric training [PTG=20] which was treated with plyometric exercises, Group-II acted as resistance training group [RTG=20] which was treated with resistance exercises, Group-III acted as combined plyometric and resistance training group [CPRTG=20] which was treated with combined training of plyometric exercises and resistance exercises and Group-IV acted as control group [CG=20]. The subjects were tested on selected criterion variable such as explosive power prior to and immediately after the training period. In all the cases, 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the significance, which was considered as an appropriate. The result of the present study has revealed that there was a significant difference among the experimental and control group on explosive power.
