“…Similarly, Alves et al [1] analyzed the effects of complex training and contrast training on SJ and CMJ performance over six-weeks in male soccer players; they found an increase in SJ performance in both groups, but no significant differences in CMJ performance as well as no significant between-group differences for any of the tests. Juarez et al [18] compared the effects of a complex training program and a conventional training program on CMJ and SJ performance in male sports science students. They reported that significant improvements were seen in both groups in terms of SJ performance, and also that a significant difference in CMJ performance was exclusive for the complex training group.…”

“…although a few studies have examined and compared the effects of different combinations of plyometric and resistance training on dynamic strength in male. One of these studies, Juarez et al [18] evaluated the effects of a complex training program and a conventional training program on strength development in male students, concluding that both programs produced gains in the weight lifted in a 1RM back squat, although significant differences were not found between the training modes. In another study on weight lifted in 1RM back squats, Burger et al [5] reported significant differences between a group which followed a 7-week complex training regime and another group which performed the same training exercises but did the weight exercises first and then the plyometric exercises.…”

“…In addition, the improvements of leg strengths range between 1.1%-11.1% for all training groups in the present study. A plausible explanation for these findings could be due to the fact that the participants had little experience in strength training [13,18]. Moreover, it is highly unlikely that short-term studies would result in significant difference in strength improvement between any weight-training programs because neural factors may override the contribution of other factors in largely untrained people [13,18].…”

“…The results of this study showed that only the complex training group increased vertical jump performance. In another training study, Juarez et al [18] compared the effects of a complex training program and a conventional training program on power and strength development in students. This study found that subjects in the complex training group showed improvement in the counter movement jump and 10 m, 15 m and 20 m run performance, whereas conventional training group subjects achieved performance gains in the 5 m run [18].…”

Similarly, Mathew et al [20] reported a finding that complex training is more effective than conventional training methods for improving linear power.…”

OBJECTIVE: To compare the order effect of a combination of plyometric and resistance training sessions on isokinetic leg strength and vertical jump performance in undergraduate students over the course of a 6-week training program. METHODS: Twenty-four undergraduate volunteers were randomly divided into 3 groups, each group consisting of 3 female and 5 male students. The first group performed traditional combination training (TC; n = 8) involving plyometric training exercises at the beginning of a workout session before resistance exercises; the second group performed contrast training (CT; n = 8) involving alternating resistance exercises with plyometric training from set to set; the third group performed complex training (CP; n = 8), another form of combination training that involves the planning of several sets of resistance training repetitions, followed by plyometric exercises [16]. All groups completed a similar volume and intensity of training. RESULTS: While all programs produced gains in vertical jump performance (p < 0.01) and isokinetic leg strength (p < 0.01, p < 0.05) except for quadriceps 60 • /s for both legs in both genders, no between group differences were observed for any performance value. CONCLUSIONS: The use of plyometric and resistance training within the same training session can be used interchangeably, irrespective of exercise order and gender.

Increases in lower-body strength transfer positively to sprint performance. The magnitude of sprint improvement is affected by numerous subject characteristics and resistance-training variables, but the large difference in number of ESs available should be taken into consideration. Overall, the reported improvement in sprint performance (sprint ES = -0.87, mean sprint improvement = 3.11 %) resulting from resistance training is of practical relevance for coaches and athletes in sport activities requiring high levels of speed.

With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility: Common Errors in Meta-Analyses and Meta-Regressions in Strength & Conditioning Research

Background and Objective Meta-analysis and meta-regression are often highly cited and may influence practice. Unfortunately, statistical errors in meta-analyses are widespread and can lead to flawed conclusions. The purpose of this article was to review common statistical errors in meta-analyses and to document their frequency in highly cited meta-analyses from strength and conditioning research. Methods We identified five errors in one highly cited meta-regression from strength and conditioning research: implausible outliers; overestimated effect sizes that arise from confusing standard deviation with standard error; failure to account for correlated observations; failure to account for within-study variance; and a focus on within-group rather than between-group results. We then quantified the frequency of these errors in 20 of the most highly cited meta-analyses in the field of strength and conditioning research from the past 20 years. Results We found that 85% of the 20 most highly cited meta-analyses in strength and conditioning research contained statistical errors. Almost half (45%) contained at least one effect size that was mistakenly calculated using standard error rather than standard deviation. In several cases, this resulted in obviously wrong effect sizes, for example, effect sizes of 11 or 14 standard deviations. Additionally, 45% failed to account for correlated observations despite including numerous effect sizes from the same study and often from the same group within the same study. Conclusions Statistical errors in meta-analysis and meta-regression are common in strength and conditioning research. We highlight five errors that authors, editors, and readers should check for when preparing or critically reviewing meta-analyses.
