The
aim of this study was to determine the effects of 8-week plyometric training on
amateur footballers on some physical and physiological parameters. 24 male
amateur football players aged 21.5 ± 2 years, height 182.1 ± 8.84 cm and 82.5 ±
12.4 kg participated in the study. In addition to the regular team training,
the experimental group had standardized plyometric training for 8 weeks.
VO2max, legs strength, vertical jump, Wingate anaerobic, standing long jump,
and 30 meters speed tests were applied to the study group. Intergroup and
intra-group parameters were analyzed with Two-Way Manova for Repeated
Measurements. Post Hoc comparisons of significant values were determined by
Bonferroni Test. There was a statistically significant difference in the
pretest and posttest values of the experimental group in terms of vertical
jump, standing broad jump, 30 meters speed, legs strength and anaerobic power
parameters of plyometric training (p <0.05). As a result, it was determined
that 8-week plyometric training had positive effects on the performance values
of the subjects.
