Abstract Recently, there has been a proliferation of published articles on the effect of plyometric jump training, including several review articles and meta-analyses. However, these types of research articles are generally of narrow scope. Furthermore, methodological limitations among studies (e.g., a lack of active/passive control groups) prevent the generalization of results, and these factors need to be addressed by researchers. On that basis, the aims of this scoping review were to (1) characterize the Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-018-0870-z) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

main elements of plyometric jump training studies (e.g., training protocols) and (2) provide future directions for research. From 648 potentially relevant articles, 242 were eligible for inclusion in this review. The main issues identified related to an insufficient number of studies conducted in females, youths, and individual sports (* 24.0, * 37.0, and * 12.0% of overall studies, respectively); insufficient reporting of effect size values and training prescription (* 34.0 and * 55.0% of overall studies, respectively); and studies missing an active/passive control group and randomization (* 40.0 and * 20.0% of overall studies, respectively).
