Under Mourinho, Chelsea became the fifth English team to win back-to-back league championships since the Second World War (2004â05 and 2005â06), in addition to winning an FA Cup (2007) and two League Cups (2005 and 2007).
The Fosbury flop, the most widely used high-jump technique, requires lots of flexibility so the jumper can stay as close to the bar as possible to clear the greatest height. A big back arch allows the jumper to literally wrap herself around the bar before flipping her legs and feet clear.
Flexibility is required both for injury prevention and to enhance the effect of the stretch shortening cycle. In fact, some advanced training methods combine plyometrics and intensive stretching in order to both protect the joint and make it more receptive to the plyometric benefits.ince then, the shock method of plyometrics is still being practiced for improvement of athletic performance by what appears to be a relatively limited number of athletes. These athletes still do depth jumps, the key exercise in the shock method, according to the guidelines established by Verkhoshansky.
