During a 5 week period, sprint-trained athletes continued their conventional training program. The subjects of the Power Plate group additionally performed a Power Plate training prior to their conventional training program three times weekly.

This specific Power Plate protocol of 5 weeks had no supplementary value when compared to the conventional training program to improve speed-strength performance. It is suggested that the intensity and volume of this particular protocol may not have been high enough for these highly-trained athletes.
