Study on the Weight of Jumping Exercises in the Development of Explosive Force in Volleyball Players

Abstract

We highlighted aspects related to the different ways of using jumps to achieve goals aimed at developing explosive force in female volleyball players. We administered a questionnaire to 64 volleyball players registered with different teams in the Romanian championship to determine their opinions regarding the importance of jumping exercises in the development of explosive strength in volleyball players. The data presented in the research results highlight the fact that some types of jumps are used in a greater proportion in the parts of training intended for the development of explosive force, compared with other types of jumps. Referring to the type of strength pursued as a training goal, we found that the weight of the use of jumps is different, with a significant increase in their use in the parts of training aimed at speed strength/explosive strength.
