If the sport itself is specific to plyometric training, as in long, high, and triple jumping, plyometrics can be carried through the in-season cycle. However, for sports dominated by vertical jumping, like basketball and volleyball, it may be advisable to reduce the amount of plyometric training to a level consistent with the development of the athlete. For example, a professional basketball team that plays a schedule of three or more dames a week with constant travel may find it impossible to train plyometrically during the season. On the other hand, the Men’s National volleyball team conducts plyometric training of up to 400 jumps while training during the season because they play a limited match schedule. Common sense must play a role in determining whether the athlete should continue plyometrics in season.
