Q
plyometric training
A
exercises that generate quick powerful movements involving a quick explosive muscle contraction preceded by an explosive eccentric muscle action
3
Q

A
to move with efficiency forces must be dampened (eccentrically), stabilized (isometrically), and then accelerated (concentrically)
