11 Vocab-plyo Intro

Question 0

What is plyo training

Answer 0

Ability of muscle to excerpt maximal force output in a min amount of time
Aka rate of force production

Question 1

Principles

Answer 1

Explosive movements such as bounding, hopping, jumping for muscular power
Known as reactive training
Refers to reaction stimulus/ground surface
Need adequate: core strength, joint stability, range of motion, balance efficiently

Question 2

Plyometric (reactive) training definition

Answer 2

Quick, powerful movements generated involving explosive concentric muscle contraction proceeded by eccentric muscle action
“Cocking/loading” is eccentric

Question 3

Integrated performance paradigm

Answer 3

Forces must be dampened (eccentrically) stabalized (isometric ally) and accelerated (Concentrically) to move with efficiency

Question 4

Phases

Answer 4

Eccentric (potential energy is stored):
Deceleration,loading,yielding,cocking phase
Amortization(end if eccentric/begin of concentric):
Electromechanical delay
Transition phase
Muscles switch from overcoming force to imparting force in a direction
Concentric (unloading):
Releasing a rubber band after it was stretched

Question 5

Goal of plyo

Answer 5

Decrease reaction time of muscle spectrum, eccentric deceleration isometric stabilization concentric acceleration
