Plyometric exercises to improve explosive strength in fencing

The present research is carried out in the EIDE Pedro D az Coello in the province of Holgu n, in which a problem is faced related to the low results obtained by the school category fencing athletes in national events due to the incidence of physical performance in the bouts, as a result of the insufficient capacity of explosive strength to attack and retreat. This work presents the proposal of a set of exercises that allow the increase of the aforementioned capacity, which contributes to the improvement of competitive performance; checking the feasibility of the proposed exercises through the application of theoretical and empirical methods in order to validate the research. The research also aims to provide sports coaches in this discipline with a sample of how to make this work possible with the particularities of age in this fencing category.
