Neuro-musculoskeletal and performance adaptations to lower-extremity plyometric training.
Markovic G, Mikulic P. Markovic G, et al. Sports Med. 2010 Oct 1;40(10):859-95. doi: 10.2165/11318370-000000000-00000. Sports Med. 2010. PMID: 20836583 Review.
Furthermore, short-term PLY (i.e. 2-3 sessions a week for 6-15 weeks) can change the stiffness of various elastic components of the muscle-tendon complex of plantar flexors in both athletes and non-athletes. Short-term PLY also improves the lower-extremity strength, power …

Stretch-Shortening Cycle Performance and Muscle-Tendon Properties in Dancers and Runners.
Rice PE, Nishikawa K, Zwetsloot KA, Bruce AS, Guthrie CD, Nimphius S. Rice PE, et al. J Appl Biomech. 2021 Dec 1;37(6):547-555. doi: 10.1123/jab.2021-0094. Epub 2021 Nov 17. J Appl Biomech. 2021. PMID: 34788742
The purpose of this investigation was to elucidate whether ankle joint stretch-shortening cycle performance, isometric and isokinetic plantarflexion strength, and maximal Achilles tendon force and elongation differ between dancers, endurance runners, a …

Chronic Adaptations to Eccentric Training: A Systematic Review.
Douglas J, Pearson S, Ross A, McGuigan M. Douglas J, et al. Sports Med. 2017 May;47(5):917-941. doi: 10.1007/s40279-016-0628-4. Sports Med. 2017. PMID: 27647157
RESULTS: Eccentric training elicits greater improvements in muscle strength, although in a largely mode-specific manner. Superior enhancements in power and stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) function have also been reported. Eccentric training is at least as effe …

From Tissue to System: What Constitutes an Appropriate Response to Loading?
Gabbett TJ, Oetter E. Gabbett TJ, et al. Sports Med. 2025 Jan;55(1):17-35. doi: 10.1007/s40279-024-02126-w. Epub 2024 Nov 11. Sports Med. 2025. PMID: 39527327 Review.
Although the response to training stress follows a predictable time course, the recovery of individual tissues to training load (defined herein as the readiness to receive a similar training stimulus without deleterious local and/or systemic effects) varies markedly, with as litt …

Measurements of tendon length changes during stretch-shortening cycles in rat soleus.
Fukutani A, Hashizume S, Isaka T. Fukutani A, et al. Sci Rep. 2023 Apr 3;13(1):5381. doi: 10.1038/s41598-023-32370-5. Sci Rep. 2023. PMID: 37009784 Free PMC article.
The muscle force attained during concentric contractions is augmented by a preceding eccentric contraction (the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) effect). At present, tendon elongation is considered the primary mechanism. ...However, the changes in Achill …

Stretching and injury prevention: an obscure relationship.
Witvrouw E, Mahieu N, Danneels L, McNair P. Witvrouw E, et al. Sports Med. 2004;34(7):443-9. doi: 10.2165/00007256-200434070-00003. Sports Med. 2004. PMID: 15233597 Review.
Sports involving bouncing and jumping activities with a high intensity of stretch-shortening cycles (SSCs) [e.g. soccer and football] require a muscle-tendon unit that is compliant enough to store and release the high amount of elastic energy that bene …

Unlocking the benefit of active stretch: the eccentric muscle action, not the preload, maximizes muscle-tendon unit stretch-shortening cycle performance.
Goecking T, Holzer D, Hahn D, Siebert T, Seiberl W. Goecking T, et al. J Appl Physiol (1985). 2024 Aug 1;137(2):394-408. doi: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00809.2023. Epub 2024 Jun 27. J Appl Physiol (1985). 2024. PMID: 38932683 Free article.
Stretch-shortening cycles (SSCs) outperform shortening contractions preceded by isometric contractions in terms of enhanced force/torque, work, and power production during shortening. ...To elucidate the effects of preload level and preload moda …
