Explosive Power Training - Anatomy

This guide to plyometric training is an essential part of sports preparation for developing strength, agility, speed, body coordination, balance and overall athletic performance. Thanks to its practicality, high level of expertise and comprehensiveness, it is suitable for professional and amateur athletes and their coaches. The authors share their knowledge and many years of experience from training athletes of all levels. They describe 94 plyometric exercises (along with their 78 variations, which increase the difficulty and allow for continuous development) – bilateral exercises, unilateral exercises, core exercises and plyometric combinations. You will also learn how variations and sequences of exercises can affect the development of strength, recovery and ultimately performance. For each exercise, you will find anatomical illustrations of the muscles currently engaged, which also show you how the muscles interact with the surrounding joints and skeletal system.
