Abstract

Introduction: Jumping ability is a strong indicator of an athlete's physical parameters in many sports disciplines. Trainers are continuously on the lookout for the most effective approaches for improving the parameters of vertical dance. The research for methods to improve vertical jump capacity (VJC) is linked to the expectation of success, and as a result, the vertical jump is linked to success in a lot of sports. The aim of the study was to compare changes in jumping parameters under the effect of different strength training methods. Methodology: This literature was selected by different research sectors that are based on the internet and books. The study was conducted with 80 subjects, all students of the "Sports University of Tirana". Students were separated into four groups. The average age of the participants was 19–20 years old. In our study, we involved three experimental groups and one control group. To collect data for contact time and vertical jump height, the Leonardo Mechanograph® GRFP standard variant of STD is used. Results and conclusion: The results of the jump indicators have changed under the effect of the training programs used, compared to the control group for 12 weeks. Through the analysis, changes in the values of the indicators of vertical jump height and ground contact time reaction were identified. All three training models have shown effects on improving jumping ability, but based on the significance of the results displayed, the method of maximum strength and plyometric exercise showed greater impact in our study.
