Plyometric training, otherwise referred to as "plyometrics" or "shock training" is a training modality which often requires athletes to jump, hop, bound or skip.... Plyometric training takes advantage of a rapid cyclical muscle action known as the "stretch-shortening cycle(SSC), "whereby the muscle undergoes an eccentric contraction, followed by a transitional period prior to the concentric contraction. 1, record 1, English, - plyometric%20training
