Plyometric exercises are explosive. You use your power to move your body fast through movements like jumping or skipping. This causes the number of fast-twitch muscle fibers to grow, which can enhance your sprint speed. Incorporating plyometrics into your running workout can make you faster and enable you to run up hills with greater ease. Here are some plyometric running exercises to try: Box jumps, which improve lower body power and speed, Jump squats, which enhance explosive strength in the legs for faster sprint speeds, Bounding, which increases stride length and power for better overall running efficiency, Skipping drills, which improve coordination, speed, and leg strength
