Here’s a bandwagon to jump on: If you’re just starting to work out, plyometrics (explosive jumping exercises) may be as effective as lifting weights. When people who don’t normally exercise trained for 12 weeks, those who did only plyometric exercises gained as much muscle and strength in their lower bodies as the ones who did traditional weight training. But don’t completely ditch deadlifts: Plyometric exercises didn’t work the hamstrings as well as weights do, the researchers found.
