Heavy resistance training versus plyometric training for improving running economy and running time trial performance: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Key Points 1. Heavy resistance training as an adjunct to running training would be more effective in improving running economy and running time trial performance than plyometric training. 2. Resistance training with nearly maximal load (= 90% of 1RM or = 4RM) would be more effective to improve running economy. 3. Heavy resistance and plyometric training should be conducted over = 10 weeks to better improve running economy.
