THE EFFECTS OF SIXWEEKS PROGRAM OF PLYOMETRIC TRENING ON VOLLEYBALL JUMPING

With goal to examine effects of plyometric training program on development of jumping strength for volleyball players, it was organized an experimental research on pattern of 23 volleyball players from cadet team and 23 students from high-school. Guided by general principles for plyometric training, individual plans for training were made. For estimating the effects of sports training on development of jumping, eight variables were used. For needs of this research four tests are valid for estimation, jump in block with left and right leg and jump in spike with left and right leg. Experiment has been realized in the second part on conditional preparations, and lasted for six weeks with two or three trainings per week. Control group had physical education lessons at their schools twice a week. Data were processed by in variant, multivariate analysis and analysis of covariance. On the results of research and discussion we can say that the model of training we used for development of jumping as a basic factor in experimental group brought statistically bigger difference in improving jumping that it brought in control group.
