Coach's Plyo Playbook

A Complete System for Developing Explosive, Reactive Athletes… Without Guessing Which Plyometrics to Use

The Problem

Most coaches don't actually know how to develop explosiveness.

They know strength.

They know conditioning.

They know how to make athletes work hard.
And they know that jumping is important.

But when it comes to actually developing an athlete's ability to produce and absorb force quickly...

They're often left piecing together random plyometric drills from YouTube, social media, or whatever they learned years ago.

The result?
Lots of jumping.
Lots of intensity.
Very little progression.
That's exactly why I created Coach's Plyometric Playbook.
Not to give you another collection of jumping exercises...

But to give you a complete system for developing explosive athletes through plyometric training.

A system you can understand, teach, and repeat with confidence.
The Truth

Explosiveness Isn't Just Jumping. It's a SKILL.

Great athletes aren't simply able to jump high.

They're able to produce force quickly, absorb force efficiently, and transition from eccentric to concentric action with speed and precision.

That's what makes plyometric training so powerful.
But simply putting an athlete through a bunch of jumps doesn't guarantee they'll become more explosive.

The athletes who consistently improve are trained with intention.
  •  They learn how to land.
  • They learn how to absorb force.
  • ​They improve their stiffness and reactivity.
  • ​They learn to produce force quickly.
  • ​And they're progressed through the right exercises at the right time.
That's exactly what you'll learn inside this course.

Instead of guessing which plyometric exercises MIGHT WORK...

You'll understand why each exercise works, when to use it, and how to coach it.
The Curriculum

Inside This Course You'll Learn…

1

The Real Drivers of Explosiveness

Before you prescribe plyometrics, you need to understand what you're actually trying to develop.

You'll learn the physical qualities that contribute to explosive performance so every exercise has a purpose.

You'll understand the role of force production, rate of force development, eccentric strength, reactive strength, stiffness, and the stretch-shortening cycle.

So you're not just making athletes jump.

You're developing specific qualities.

How to Build Plyometric Ability From the Ground Up

Plyometrics aren't one-size-fits-all.

A young athlete learning to land shouldn't be doing the same exercises as an advanced collegiate athlete.

Inside the Playbook, you'll learn how to progressively develop plyometric ability from foundational movements...

To landing and force absorption...

To jumping and hopping...

To more advanced reactive and explosive movements.

You'll know what comes next—and why.

3

Landing Mechanics & Force Absorption

One of the most important—and overlooked—aspects of plyometric training is the ability to absorb force.

Before an athlete can effectively produce force...

They need to be able to control it.

You'll learn how to coach landing mechanics, force absorption, body control, and the positions athletes need to successfully progress into more advanced plyometrics.

4

The Exact Exercises We Use

You'll get the exercises we use to develop explosive athletes.

Not random jump variations.

Not exercises chosen because they look impressive on Instagram.

Purpose-driven plyometrics with clear coaching objectives.

You'll know what to coach...

What to look for...

And why each exercise belongs in your program.

5

How to Identify and Fix Common Mistakes

Every coach has athletes who collapse on landing...

Spend too much time on the ground...

Can't control their positions...

Lose stiffness...

Or simply don't understand how to produce force quickly.

The problem isn't recognizing that something looks wrong.

The problem is knowing why it's happening and how to fix it.

This course teaches you how to identify common technical errors and match them with the appropriate exercises and progressions.

No more guessing.

No more hoping athletes eventually "figure it out."

6

How to Progress Plyometrics

More advanced doesn't always mean better.

A good plyometric program progresses athletes based on their ability—not simply their age or training experience.

You'll learn how to progress exercises by manipulating variables such as:
  •  Direction
  • Amplitude
  •  Complexity
  • ​Speed
  • ​Ground contact time
  • ​Unilateral vs. bilateral demands
  • ​Reactive demands
So you can continually challenge athletes without simply throwing harder exercises at them.

7

How to Build an Entire Plyometric Session

Perhaps the biggest challenge coaches face isn't finding exercises.

It's putting everything together.
How many jumps?
How much volume?
Which exercises come first?
When should you use bilateral versus unilateral work?
How much recovery do athletes need?
How do plyometrics fit alongside strength and speed training?
I'll show you how to structure plyometric sessions so every piece has a purpose and your athletes continue progressing week after week.

This Isn't Just Random Information...
It's a Coaching System.

By the end of this course, you'll know how to:
  • Understand the physical qualities that drive explosive performance.
  • Evaluate an athlete's plyometric ability with confidence.
  • Coach proper landing and force-absorption mechanics.
  • Develop the stretch-shortening cycle.
  • Improve reactive and explosive qualities.
  • Select the right exercises instead of random jump variations.
  • Select the right exercises instead of random jump variations.
  • Progress plyometric exercises appropriately.
  • Build organized, effective plyometric sessions.
  • Develop athletes who produce and absorb force more effectively.
Most importantly…

You'll stop wondering whether you're doing the right thing.

You'll know.
