Abstract

The effect of different frequencies of plyometric training on explosive power parameters was assessed on sixty college women players studying undergraduate course. Their age was ranged from 18 to 25 years. The subjects were divided into two groups of twenty five each (n=30).Group I underwent plyometric training for 3 days a week, Group II underwent plyometric training for 5 days a week. The duration of the training period was restricted to twelve weeks. Upper body explosive power was assessed by seated medicine ball throw (3.6 kg) and lower body explosive power was assessed by sergeant jump. The data was collected from the experimental groups were statically analyzed with using t-test and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA).The analysis speculated that both 3 days plyometric training and 5 days plyometric training produced significant changes over upper body explosive power and lower body explosive power of college women players.
