About

Volleyball is one of the famous games which is used in order to enhance and increase physical and game oriented skills in athletes and players. The main goal of athletic training and sports participation is to enhance athletic performance. Different types of training regimes (Pilates and Plyometric) are used on athletes to increase their physical performance. As volleyball is the game of power agility as well as speed. Physical fitness is one of the important parameters of this game. So, Pilates training strengthens the deep core muscles and improves movement, efficiency and muscle control. And plyometric training is to increase the power of subsequent movements using both natural elastic components of muscle and tendon and the stretch reflex. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of Pilates and Plyometric, on physical performance of volleyball players.
