  1. Abbreviations ordered alphabetically
  2. AH ankle hops, BH box (or similar) height (cm) used during PJT exercises, BJ box jump, CMJ countermovement jump, Comb the PJT was combined with another lower-limb training type, such as RT, DJ drop jump, Dur duration (weeks) of the PJT intervention, Freq frequency of PJT sessions (days per week), Int intensity of the PJT exercises. For those using maximal intensity (i.e. denoted as Max in the column), the intensity index varied depending on the exercise (e.g. height; distance; RSI; power output; time contact; impact force; load for the loaded jumps; percentage of one repetition maximum), Mod moderate intensity, NA not applicable, NR no reported, NTJ number of total jumps completed during the PJT intervention, PJT plyometric jump training, PO progressive overload applied during the PJT intervention, Recov recovery time between sets (in seconds, unless stated otherwise), repetitions (seconds), and training sessions (hours), respectively, Repl replacement of a given portion of the regular sport-specific training schedule (i.e. load) with the PJT intervention, RPE rating of perceived effort, RSI reactive strength index, RT resistance training. Usually involving squat, split squat, leg press, or similar exercises for the lower limbs, T technique-type overload (e.g. the exercises varied across time), Tply type of PJT exercises, with “Mix” denoting a combination usually between three or more PJT exercises involving vertical, horizontal, unilateral, bilateral, repeated and/or non-repeated PJT exercises, Tsurf type of surface used during PJT, V volume-based overload (e.g. from 90 jumps per session at week 1, the overload involved 100 jumps per session at week 2), Vert vertical, VT vibration training
