Purpose: This study investigated the effects of a reinforced plyometrics training program and a 40% IRM fast strength training program on the vertical jump and footwork drill performance of amateur table tennis athletes. Methods: The subjects, 16 male college-level non-PE major table tennis athletes, were randomly assigned into two groups. One group received reinforced training consisting of three exercise movements, 7RM, and 5 set with a one-minute rest period; the other group was given fast strength training consisting of three exercise movements, 40% IRM, 7RM, and 5 set with a one-minute rest period. Results: The results were analyzed by paired t-test to obtain the differences between the pre-training and post-training data. Also, an independent samples t-test was conducted to examine the differences between both training programs. The results indicated that there was a significant difference (p<.05) between both training programs in their effects on the subjects' vertical jump and footwork drill performance. While there was no significant difference (p>.05) between both training programs on the subjects' footwork drill performance, there was a significant effect between both training programs on the subjects' vertical jump performance, which indicates that the reinforced plyometrics training program was more effective than the fast strength training program. Conclusions: Overall, it was found that both training programs were effective on the subjects' vertical jump and footwork drill performance, but the reinforced training program was better in enhancing the vertical jump performance of the subjects.
