Abstract:
The Effects of Plyometric Exercises on the Muscular Power, Speed and Agility of the Football players
The plyometric exercises are types of exercises that greatly help enhance the muscular power, particularly that of the lower part of the body, in almost all kinds of individual or team sports requiring a high level of power and speed. Also, the plyometric exercises are part of the resistance training as in those speed-strength exercises or explosive power exercises, which are mainly used to enhance sprinting speed whether in running or jumping. In fact, obtaining such speed and explosive power helps improving the sprint speed in athletics, in general.
One of the key reasons behind this study was the researchers’ perception of an apparent deficiency in the physical performance (e.g. agility, speed and muscular power) of the football players they had examined. In addition, they noticed that trainers, too, had not used plyometric exercises as much as they should have. Therefore, this study comes as an attempt to introduce a comprehensive plyometric exercises training program and to examine its effectiveness on the agility and speed of the football players.
Objectives of the study:
The study aims to examine the effects of the suggested plyometric exercises training program on the enhancement of the muscular power, speed and agility of King Saud University football team players.
The hypotheses:
1- There are statistically significant results differences between the pre and post-training assessment for the experimental group in term of the muscular power, agility and speed.
2- In the results of the post-training assessments, there are statistically significant differences between the experimental and control group, making the experimental group outweighing the control group in the body lower-part muscular power, agility and speed.
Methodology:
The study employed an experimental method that fit the nature of the study, using a pre and post-training assessment for one experimental and another control group.
The study participants and environment:
The program of study was applied on all the football team players of King Saud University, excluding those players who have had an external training in professional leagues or clubs. The participants were divided into two groups; an experimental and a control one. Only two players were dismissed as they stopped attending the program two weeks after its commencement. So the groups we divided as follows:
1- an experimental group, of 14 players, that received an extensive plyometric exercises training program.
2- a control group, of 16 players, that received a traditional training.
Results of the study:
2- The study found that the plyometric training has a positive impact on enhancing both the horizontal explosive power (long jumping) as well as the vertical explosive power (vertical jumping).
2- The plyometric exercises training affects positively the aspect of performance speed.
3- The plyometric exercises training is also found to enhance the body agility, which is greatly related to the muscular power and speed of the lower part of the body.
The purpose of this study was to analyse the kinematic variables of an elite race walker gait technique during the post-competitive period in a World Athletics Championship. The elite athlete…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to gather an anthropometric and fitness dataset for young Saudi footballers and compare their characteristics to other populations.
