# Plyometric & Static Training

Physical Education: AQA GCSE, topic 4.1.3

## Plyometric Training

Plyometric training is used to develop a performer's power (speed x strength).

### Activities

![Activities](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/7c68f8fa-f11c-4e55-ad51-ac51e118d58b/shutterstock_696587908.jpg)

- Activities include bouncing, hopping or jumping but can also include activities such as clap press ups. The idea is to use body weight and gravity to work the muscles. 
- This produces an eccentric contraction (muscle lengthens) followed by a concentric contraction (muscle shortens).

### Box jump

![Box jump](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/2901fe90-068c-4662-88a3-0844224ad735/shutterstock_426807445.jpg)

- For example, during a box jump, the performer jumps off the box. 
- The quadriceps eccentrically contracts as the performer lands.
- This creates an ‘elastic energy’ in the muscles. 
- This energy is released in the second jump as the performer jumps back onto the box.

## Static Stretching

A static stretch is when a stretch is performed and the position is held (isometric contraction). This type of stretching increases the flexibility of a joint.

### Stretching

- To perform correctly, a performer must stretch to their limit and hold the stretch (isometrically) for 30 seconds. It is important to use the correct technique and to avoid over-stretching.

### Dancers and gymnasts

- This type of training is commonly used by dancers and gymnasts to increase flexibility.

### Advantages of static stretching

- This is good for increasing flexibility. This means that it is useful for athletes who want to improve their range of motion at a joint.
- It is very easy to do and can be done anywhere at any time.

### Disadvantages of static stretching

- It can take a long time to stretch the entire body.
- Some muscles are easier to stretch than others.
- Over-stretching leads to injury.
