“…However, taking into account a dropout rate of 15%, we included 42 Male university-level cricket players, having at least 5-6 years of cricket playing experience, in this study in the age group of 18 to 26 years. Pre-intervention (or baseline) measures were taken after the familiarization period, and post-intervention readings were taken after four weeks of respective training [2,17] (Fig. 1).…”

“…The control group (CG) performed routine training (not allowed to add new exercise), while the other two training groups (CTG and PTG) trained twice weekly for four weeks [2,17]. Before initiating the training periods, the subjects in both groups were instructed about the proper execution of all exercises to be used during the training period for all training regimens.…”

“…Cricket is a team event that demands the players to assume different activities like throwing, bowling and batting, bowling, fielding, batting,.and wicket-keeping in the same game [1]. Due to its intermittent nature, this game imposes a considerable load on the physiological and neuromuscular systems [2]. It requires individuals to execute a range of movements with varying intensities, such as striding, sprinting, turning, and jumping.…”

“…Muscle strength has been put forth as an important factor in enhancing the effectiveness of cricket-related activities, Bowlers benefit from upper body and leg strength to enhance their deliveries, batsmen rely on arm and core strength for powerful shots and balance, fielders utilize upper body strength for precise throws, and wicketkeepers depend on strong wrists and forearms for catching and stumping. Leg strength is crucial for running, striding, sprinting, making rapid turns, and jumping [2]. Improvements in strength gains have been observed following alterations in various dosage parameters of resistance training [3].…”

Background Complex training is found effective in improving physical performance in various sports. There is a paucity of research evidence comparing the efficacy of complex vs. plyometric training in cricket players. The study aimed to compare the efficacy of complex and plyometric training on physical performance parameters in cricket players. Methods Participants (n = 42 Male; age group = 18–26 years) were randomly allocated into three groups, complex training group (CTG) (n = 14; BMI = 20.51 ± 2.23), plyometric training group (PTG) (n = 14; BMI = 20.57 ± 2.82), and control group (CG) (n = 14; BMI = 20.51 ± 2.23). CTG and PTG received their respective training twice weekly, and CG received routine training for four weeks. Pre and post-intervention assessments of core muscle strength (CM), multistage fitness (MF), push-up (PU), lateral cone jump (LCJ), and stationary vertical jump (SVJ) were performed. This study has been registered in clinicaltrials.gov (ID: NCT05646914, on 05/12/2022). Results A significant difference was observed between CTG vs. CG for CM (p ≤ 0.01), LCJ (p < 0.05), and SVJ (p ≤ 0.01), similarly in PTG vs. CG for CM (p-value), LCJ (p ≤ 0.05) and SVJ (p ≤ 0.01). However, No significant difference was found between PTG vs. CTG for any variables (p ≥ 0.05). Also, No significant difference in MF and PU was found between the groups (p ≥ 0.05). Conclusions Complex training has been found to have effects similar to plyometric training alone. Therefore, either of the two strategies can be used to improve the performance of male cricket players.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of a complex versus a contrast training regimen with steroid hormones and the performance of soccer players. Methods: Thirty-six professional male soccer players were randomly divided into 3 equal groups: complex training (n = 12; body mass index [BMI], 22.95 ± 1.76 kg/m 2 ), contrast training (n = 12; BMI, 22.05 ± 2.03 kg/m 2 ), and control (n = 12; BMI, 22.27 ± 1.44 kg/m 2 ). Players from the complex and contrast groups were trained for 6 weeks (3 d/wk). The complex group performed 4 different exercises, each composed of strength (80% of 1 repetition maximum [RM]) and power components alternately. The contrast group performed the same strengthening exercises alternately at different intensities (40% and 80% of 1 RM). All players were tested for free testosterone, cortisol, vertical jump, 20-m sprint, and agility T-test at the baseline and after 6 weeks of training. Results: A 3 × 2 mixed analysis of variance revealed a significant difference in time effect (P ≤ .05), whereas a nonsignificant difference was found in the group effect for all outcome variables. group × time interaction was significant in all the variables (P b .01) except cortisol (P = .28). Conclusion:Complex training showed greater improvement in physical performance and free testosterone concentration compared with contrast training, whereas both types of training decreased cortisol concentration in a similar fashion.
