Resumen
Abstract
In a randomised controlled trial design, effects of 6 weeks of plyometric training on maximal-intensity
exercise and endurance performance were compared in male and female soccer players. Young (age
21.1 ± 2.7 years) players with similar training load and competitive background were assigned to
training (women, n = 19; men, n = 21) and control (women, n = 19; men, n = 21) groups. Players were
evaluated for lower- and upper-body maximal-intensity exercise, 30 m sprint, change of direction speed
and endurance performance before and after 6 weeks of training. After intervention, the control groups
did not change, whereas both training groups improved jumps (effect size (ES) = 0.35–1.76), throwing
(ES = 0.62–0.78), sprint (ES = 0.86–1.44), change of direction speed (ES = 0.46–0.85) and endurance
performance (ES = 0.42–0.62). There were no differences in performance improvements between the
plyometric training groups. Both plyometric groups improved more in all performance tests than the
controls. The results suggest that adaptations to plyometric training do not differ between men and
women.
