Abstract :

 The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of plyometric training on muscular strength among Nagaland  university students. To achieve this purpose of the study, thirty men students were selected as subjects who were from  the various faculties, Nagaland University, Lumami. The selected subjects were aged between 19 to 24 years. They were divided into two equal  groups of fifteen each, Group I underwent plyometric training and Group II acted as control that did not participate in any special training  apart from their regular sports and games practices. The subjects were tested on selected criterion variables such as muscular strength prior  to any immediately after the training period. The selected criterion variable such as muscular strength was determined through using Leg  dynomometer. The analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to find out the significant differences if any, between the experimental group  and control group on selected criterion variable. The 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the significance, which was considered as an  appropriate. The result of the present study has revealed that there was a significant difference among the experimental and control group  on muscular strength.
