What are advantage and disadvantage of plyometric training?

Answer 1

There are not necessarily any "disadvantages" to training with plyometrics - meaning it will not make you weaker or lessen performance in other areas.

However, there are "opportunity costs" to any training method. What I mean is that if you choose to focus on plyometrics you may not be able to focus as much on strength or weight training. Properly phasing strength and plyometrics training will help you yield the greatest benefit from both.
