Plyometric training is very productive to any triple jumper.
However, you must start this type training at a low intensity to prevent any injuries. Start out by using weight training to get you body stronger to withstand the punishment of plyometrics. You will notice in the chart above that there are various types of plyometrics. When beginning, use only about 40-50 contacts per session and increase every week, by 10 contacts. Soreness will be a result of this type of training.
