Summary:Plyometrics for the Strength-Power Athlete presents an overview of how to incorporate plyometric training into a basic strength and conditioning program. The video discusses why plyometric exercises are not meant to be conditioning drills, rather they are designed to improve the power- performance level of athletes. How and why plyometric exercises should be selected that have the greatest similarity to the movements of strength-power athletes in the competitive arena is also detailed. Among the topics covered: scientific basis for plyometric training; preparation for plyometric training; plyometric exercise prescription; and plyometric exercise demonstrations for various levels of intensity (low, low-moderate, moderate, moderate-high, high).
