Journal Title: CITIUS ALTIUS FORTIUS - JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORT - Year 2009, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
The students of the modern civilization allocate more and more spare time to sports that has become a must of their daily existence. With a view to obtaining better results, the school population must not oversee the practice of a sportive activity, either an individual or a collective one, by respecting a certain program, all throughout their school classes. Although less known, the notion of plyometrics is well present inside the school and extra-curricular activities, starting from the very first years. One must not forget that the first contests of this nature were organized in the Carpathians: long jumps over several horses, contests for which the participants trained intensively and exclusively.
