Pylometrics

[Laborn]

Hi i've looked on the internet about pylometrics, and they tell you what to do, but does anyone know a website where i can them do them on video clips?? I dont want to jump into something before looking it up, and i'd like to know that im doing the excersise right lol.

Century Martial Arts at www.centuryma.com has videos on plyometrics to sell. I prefer books so I got a book on jumping: "Explosive Power and Jumping Ability" from them. It has a lot of technical detail. TW

www.ringside.com has a few videos on pylometric exercises as well.

Thanks, both of you

Funny tho, plyometric is...jumping? that's it? lol

 

[Marginal]

It's more about explosive movement. Jumping around with a medicine ball etc just happens to be a really good one.

Or doing push-ups with claps.

Marginal and Adept have mentioned some good examples. Here's one which combines what each said to a certain extent: we hold the medicine ball (8lb) while doing pushups-try to get the ball off the floor when pushing off.

Good luck!
