Jump Training Dose-Response: How Much Is Enough?
A 53-study meta-analysis found 2-3 weekly plyo sessions beat 1 or 4+ for vertical jump gains. Foot-contact volumes and dosing thresholds inside.
Jump Training for Beginners: Complete Starter Guide
Untrained beginners gain 4.7 cm of vertical jump in 8 weeks of plyometrics. This 4-week program covers landing mechanics and the 90% LSI threshold.
Jump Training for Beginners: Start From Zero
The first four weeks of jump training build landing mechanics, not intensity. Most see gains within 4-6 weeks. Here's the weekly structure to use.
