Brief Summary

This study will help to understand the effects of plyometric training on endurance and explosive strength in cricket players.

Conditions

Sports Physical Therapy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Jump Height

  Vertical jump tests is used to measure lower limb explosive power by measuring the height a client is able to jump in centimetre (cm). Attempt to touch the wall at the highest point of the jump. The difference in distance between the standing reach height and the jump height is the score. The best of three attempts is recorded.

  6-8 Weeks

• Endurance

  This test is used to measures endurance

  6-8 Weeks

• Ballistic push up test

  This test is used to measure explosive strength for upper extremity.

  6-8 Weeks
