Association of strength and plyometric exercises with change of direction performances

Abstract: The change of direction (COD) ability is an important task-specific skill for success in team sports, dependent on both strength and reactive strength. The sprint approaching the COD and degrees of the turn are factors influencing the specificity of the COD. Thus, CODs have been suggested to be categorized as force-(> 90˚) and velocity-dominant (< 90˚) dependent on the degree of the turn. When training programmes fail to provide a significant increase in COD performance, it is often due to neglecting the task-… Show more

“…The strength tests of the current study were similar to an earlier similar study by Falch, Rædergård, and van den Tillaar [ 29 ], but in men. It consisted of a bilateral back squat, a unilateral quarter squat performed on a Smith machine, and a lateral barbell squat.…”

“…Contradictory to earlier research [ 16 , 29 , 53 , 54 ], the correlation between plyometrics and COD performance was limited. Balance might also account for this finding, because instability may decrease the ability to express power [ 55 , 56 ].…”
