Brief Summary:
This randomized controlled trial aims to assess the effectiveness of a 12-week plyometric training regimen on improving power speed and agility among boys aged 10 to 18 years who are actively engaged in sports and exhibit differing levels of biological maturity The study seeks to determine how maturation affects the responsiveness to the training program potentially influencing future sports training approaches for young athletes
Detailed Description:
The main objective of this project is to assess the impact of a plyometric program on power speed agility reactive strength index and stiffness in male athletes of different levels of maturation The study takes the form of a short-term experiment 12 weeks involving 30 young athletes with a minimum of two years of experience in systematic sports training Participants are divided into an experimental group and a control group The experimental group undergoes a 12-week plyometric training program implemented twice a week within training sessions immediately following warm-ups The control group engages in technical-tactical exercises The program is developed by the authors of the research project based on current knowledge and requirements for creating an effective and safe plyometric program Randomization is performed using a computer random generator Participants undergo two testing sessions one prior to the training intervention and the other one week after its completion Age height weight and body composition are measured using a personal scale with an integrated stadiometer Tests include a 30-m sprint countermovement jump broad jump unilateral triple jump drop jump reactive strength index 20 submaximal vertical jumps lower limb stiffness BlazePod reaction test and 505 agility test The maturity status of the participants is evaluated using the Mirwald method and is used as a covariate in the subsequent statistical analysis Findings of this research may provide crucial insights for targeted integration of plyometric methods during the developmental and maturation phases of young athletes
