Many athletes can reach a very high level of performance simply by jumping and sprinting maximally, and doing so often. Although doing only one’s specific movement is a wonderful way to train, eventually the brain and nervous system need even more overload to push the body to a new level, at least with most athletes. There are a gifted few out there who can just jump and sprint, and never do a plyometric in their life, and be just fine. If you were one of those gifted few, chances are that you would be busy right now doing between the legs dunks over whatever volunteers you can find, rather than reading a book on how to properly implement plyometrics into your regimen. Students participating in high school athletics are more connected to school and community life which results in better academic results and engagement at school. Students say that playing sports has helped them to develop a sense of work ethic and has increased their motivation to succeed. I believe this will help my student become more marketable and could improve their chances for a scholarship.
