Q.
How many times a week should i do plyometrics without hurting my self?
A.
Jump training and Plyometrics Sessions should occur no more than 3 times a week. These workouts are often measured by counting foot contacts, and that might be more important. The recommended number of jumps in any one session will change with the difficulty of the program. A beginner in a single workout in an off-season cycle could do 60 to 100 foot contacts of low intensity exercises. The intermediate athlete might be able to do 100 to 150 foot contacts of low intensity work and another 100 of moderate intensity exercises. An advanced athlete may be able to do 150 to 200 foot contacts of low to moderate intensity in this cycle. Multiple hops and jumps are an example of a moderately intense plyometric exercise. Box drills and depth jumps are a higher intensity and foot contacts should be monitored closely
