We call this plyometric training or, “jump training.” Plyometrics use explosive movements to build strength and to condition the muscles and heart.
The exercises themselves are forms of jumping. In essence, you perform an explosive move where your feet leave the ground and each time you land, the muscles get a stretch—allowing you to jump with even more power the next time. At one time, plyometrics were primarily used by athletes to improve power for their sport, but now they are definitely part of the fabric of the fitness world! Fitness professionals and enthusiasts everywhere use plyometrics as either a stand alone workout or in parts of other workout programs.

Plyometrics boost muscle power, strength, balance and agility and help you burn calories. Plyometric exercises train your muscular system, decreasing the time it takes to go from rest to maximum force.
This can greatly increase your performance in activities which are heavily dependent upon speed, such as jumps, punches, swings, or sprints.
