Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah Internatinal University, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A \& B through random number generator by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive plyometric training. Group B will receive general training.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of the study is to determine the effects of plyometric training on vertical jumps and dynamic stability in volleyball players with chronic knee pain.

The study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah Internatinal University, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A \& B through random number generator by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive plyometric training. Group B will receive general training.

The outcome measures will be assessed by Vertical jump test, Hop test and Y balance test

The data will be analyzed by SPSS, version 25. Statistical significance is P= 0.05.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Plyometric training

Jumps in place. Standing jumps. Multiple hops and jumps. Box drills. Depth jumps.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Plyometric training

Intervention Type OTHER

Jumps in place. Some examples include multiple vertical jumps while reaching an overhead object, squat jump, pike jump, or tuck jump.

* Standing jumps. Examples include the single leg jump, maximal vertical jump ,standing long jump or lateral long jump.
* Multiple hops and jumps. Examples would include multiple long jumps or cone hops performed in succession, such as 5 hops in a row
* Box drills. Examples of these drills include box jumps ,repeated box jumps, and single leg box jumps.
* Depth jumps. Examples include stepping off the box and landing, stepping off the box and jumping vertically immediately after landing, or stepping off the box, landing, and sprinting.

General exercises

Dumbbell Squat, Dumbbell Alternating Bench Press, Straight Arm Pulldowns, Dumbbell Front Raises, Reverse Flyes, Overhead Tricep Extensions, Dumbbell Bicep Curls, Jackknife Crunches, Oblique Crunches, External Rotation
