Abstract

Background: Vertical jump performance is a crucial factor in many sports, as it directly influences
athletic abilities such as sprinting, agility, and power. Plyometric training (PT) and progressive resisted
exercises (PRE) are widely used methods to enhance lower limb strength and explosive power.
However, there is limited comparative research on their relative effectiveness among college sports
students.
Objective: This study aims to compare the effectiveness of plyometric exercises and progressive
resisted exercises in improving vertical jump performance among college-going sports students.
