Effect of unilateral and bilateral plyometric training on jumping, sprinting, and change of direction abilities: a meta-analysis

UNI and BI plyometric training offer modality-specific benefits for enhancing single-leg jumping, sprinting, and COD performance, whereas BI is more effective for optimizing bilateral jump performance. The LGCF protocol significantly enhances vertical jump performance.
