Dynamic Strength Index-based Intervention in Basketball.

The intervention consist of modifying the ongoing resistance exercises. Those with low DSI values will perform ballistics, explosive exercises. Those with high DSI will perform heavy-load training. The resistance training program will consist of 2 sessions per week for 5 weeks (10 sessions in total). The sessions will be separated by a minimum of 48 hours. The strength training group will consist mostly of exercises with high load, whereas the ballistic training group will perform ballistic exercises with low load or without any additional load. The training principle will be the same for both subgroups, consisting of 3 exercises per training session and a total of 6 exercises per week, with four of the exercises being bilateral, one unilateral, and one quasi-unilateral (Bulgarian split squat and scissor jumps).

The participants will do a general training program (not based on DSI values). The resistance training program will consist of 2 sessions per week for 5 weeks (10 sessions in total). The sessions will be separated by a minimum of 48 hours. The strength training group will consist mostly of exercises with high load, whereas the ballistic training group will perform ballistic exercises with low load or without any additional load. The training principle will be the same for both subgroups, consisting of 3 exercises per training session and a total of 6 exercises per week, with four of the exercises being bilateral, one unilateral, and one quasi-unilateral (Bulgarian split squat and scissor jumps).
