In this study we present the progress of the development team VO2max "Partizan-Basket" during the preparatory period of the training process. A total of 20 basketball players involved in this study, with their desire. The data presented are related to some anthropometric measurements (age, weight, height, body mass index, BMI etc.) and measurements of Vo2max on the ergo-metric "Monarch" bicycle. The mean age was 21.0 years old with SD ± 3.55; weight 85.6 kg with SD ± 11.6; height 188.9 cm with SD ± 6.21; body mass percentage 85.65% with SD ± 11.06 and BMI 23.95 with SD ± 3.03 As for maximum oxygen consumption (Vo2max) at the first measurement with an average of 3.98 l/min and with SD ± 0.65 and (Vo2 max) 47.45 ml/kg / min and SD ± 6.96. These data were taken at the beginning of the training process of the preparatory period to determine the level of current sports situation, which from the data obtained was relatively low. For this purpose, a genuine program for increasing the level of Vo2max was designed, where basketball players would train for 12 weeks with 2 training sessions per week, with 45-60 minutes with aerobic fitness exercises and mostly running in nature. At the end of the period, a significant improvement was observed from the first measurement to the second and mainly to the Vo2max indicators and specifically: Vo2max in l/ min with an average of 4.34 l/min and an improvement margin of 0.35 l/min. Vo2max in ml/kg/min with an average of 52.15 ml/kg / min and improvement margin 4.69 ml/kg / min. Undoubtedly, the above changes with an increasing improvement in aerobic level indicators constitute a sound basis for the continuity of physical training (engines) in general and other types of training component components in particular, which together converge to the performance of game and consequently on the technical results of the games.

This study aims to evaluate and compare the effects of the plyometric training method of force, in improving the ability of basketball players. In this study participated 20 basketball players of the "Partizani-basket" team participating in the Albanian Basketball Championship for adults . Participating basketball players of this activity were made aware of the purpose of this study and the invitation to participate in it. They were involved in this study with their own desire. The team would be trained for 12 weeks, according to a defined physical fitness program for the preparatory period, focusing twice a week on plyometric exercises in addition to other elements of physical preparation as a whole. All the basketball players taken in this study were measured before and after the 12 week period of conditioning in the off season on vertical jump, long jump, and parameters associated with these tests. The data subjected to statistical processing using the IBM SPSS Statistics software 22 method. The overall team at the end of the preparation period had a significant improvement in propensity (p < 0.05) in the vertical jump (< 14.3 cm) on the longest (< 15.8 cm). The results of this study showed that the effects of the plyometric training method of the force increased with significant indicators especially in the motors of ability performance in the basketball team of the "Partizani-basket" team.
