crazebear -- you are correct. You have learned well.

Anyone on here discussing the injury factor. What I hate is parents who do not want their kids to play football because they are afraid of the injuries. Latest word I have read about soccer is that recent studies show that long time soccer players have numerous head injuries from heading the ball. Said that their level of cognitive development is lower Don't know that much about it, just what I have read. Anyone know more about it?

JPATS5, Now things could have changed since I did my research in plyometrics. But, they should not be done 3 days a week for an hour a day. Plyos put a huge amount of stress on the nervous system. It takes awhile for the muscles to recover. Plyos should be done 1 day a week and maybe 2 if you are already in great shape. If done correctly they will not help much with strength. A workout should be limited to 150-200 jumps (of various types) per workout. Now as I said it has been a number of years since I did my Thesis on the subject. But I still use this workout schedule today. With great results. Where did I get my info from. A guy named Michael Yessis.
