Synopsis
The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of plyometrics on two different types of surfaces using volleyball players. The study examined specifically sand versus ground. Twenty-one participants joined in the study where they were divided into two training groups. There was a sand plyometric training group and a ground plyometric training group. The participants trained twice a week for 6 weeks. Each participant performed a vertical jump height test with a vertec measuring device for a pre-test and a post-test. On average the sand group increased their vertical jump heights as well as the ground group. The analysis indicated that there were no significant differences between the sand or the ground group when it comes to increasing their vertical jump height. The results of the study show that both sand and ground plyometric training can be a good way to train volleyball players. Both the sand group and the ground group increased their vertical jump heights, which can help them to play the game at a higher level.
