Plyometric Training Progression and Volume
When progressing plyometric training, it differs from resistance training by focusing on movements that are fast and involve the stretch shortening cycle. The volume and frequency are key considerations when planning plyometric workouts. Beginners may start with 30-50 jumps per session, progressing to 80-100 foot contacts for beginner-level athletes two times a week. Intermediate and advanced athletes can handle higher volumes to continue their progression.
