“…Athletes undertake various physical activities to strengthen their technical and physical potential (1) .In this regard, plyometric exercises positively affect physical fitness https://www.indjst.org/ indicators such as muscular power, strength endurance, speed, and flexibility while being safe (with no documented injuries) (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8) These exercises can help improve muscle function by allowing muscles to stretch quickly while making an explosive muscle movement (9) . Plyometrics use the stretch-shortening cycle, which involves two quick, alternating movements.…”

“…In an exhaustive meta-analysis of studies performed on male and female volleyball players, Ramirez-Campillo et al (30) showed that plyometric jump training is safe and effective in improving physical fitness. Khan et al (31) examined the effect of plyometric training on various physical aspects of university students and reported significant development in their improving motor ability. Extensive research has also proven the positive effects of yoga in multiple sports, including volleyball.…”

Background: Athletes' flexibility and strength endurance improve through regular yoga practice. If plyometric exercises combine with yoga asanas in training programs, it may enhance performance in sports that demand these fitness components. Objectives: To determine the effect of eight weeks of plyometric training alone and in combination with asanas on adolescent volleyball players' flexibility and strength endurance. Methods: Forty-five male adolescent volleyball players were randomly selected for two experimental groups and a control group for eight weeks. An ANCOVA was used to compare the modified post-test means to the initial test means. Findings: The study's findings indicate that plyometric exercise, both alone and in combination with asanas, has a substantial effect on flexibility (F = 15.90, p = 0.00) and strength endurance (F = 2.366, p = 0.0027). Furthermore, the paired means of plyometric combined with asanas and plyometric (0.743, p = 0.03), plyometric combined with asanas and control (1.268, p = 0.00), and plyometric and control (0.525, p = 0.029) had a statistically significant mean difference in flexibility. Among the paired means, the differences in strength endurance between plyometric combined with asanas and plyometric (0.276, p = 0.853); plyometric combined with asanas and control (2.911, p = 0.055); and plyometric and control (2.635, p = 0.082) were not statistically significant. Novelty: Plyometric training alone improved the players' flexibility by 14.25%, and plyometric training combined with asanas improved it by 28.64% compared to the control group. The combined exercise was 16.78% more effective than plyometric training alone. Post-testing data on strength endurance demonstrate an improved trend, despite the absence of statistically significant differences.

The low achievement of long jump athletes and the limited virtual-based aquatic plyometric exercises to increase lower extremity muscle strength are the gaps in this study. This study aims to increase lower extremity muscle strength of long jump athletes through virtual-based plyometric aquatic training. This research adopted a mixed methods research. This study involved participants from long jump athletes at the University of Tanjung Pura in Indonesia (n = 20). Participants were divided into two groups, namely an experimental group (n = 10) and control group (n = 10). The quantitative instrument involved a leg dynamometer for measuring lower extremity muscle strength. While, the qualitative instrument used in-depth interview. Quantitative data analysis was carried out through IBM SPSS to calculate descriptive statistics and normality, while the paired sample t-test to test differences in lower extremity muscle strength values in the experimental and control groups. Qualitative analysis was carried out through recording, describing and coding stages, which categorized into three themes. Based on quantitative results, it showed that virtual-based plyometric aquatic training was proven significantly increase lower extremity muscle strength (ps0.05), but there was no significant effect in the control group (p & 0.05). Qualitative results found out that most of the participants gave a positive opinion regarding virtual-based plyometric aquatics. Thus, this study confirms that virtual-based plyometric aquatic training can be used to increase lower extremity muscle strength.
