In this video I take a look at what are known as partial plyometrics. This term generally applies to the degree of knee bend which is very shallow. A partial hop would thus be performed from a virtually straight leg as opposed to a power hop where the degree of knee bend would be greater.
Partial plyos are great for developing leg stiffness also known as joint stiffness. This is crucial for sprinting and jumping. We include these and many other types of plyos throughout the training year 3-4 times a week during normal training times.
These partial variations are less intense than power hops for example but have a big part to play in making an athlete ready for these and as a training means in in their own right.
In the video you'll see numerous types of partial plyos and also other exercises such as drop jumps (which should be performed from a near straight leg.
At the end of the video you can find out more about Channel Memberships - where you can take your knowledge to a higher level with exclsuive content.
