The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of Plyometric Training  and Resistance training on the development of Speed among University Sprinters of Osmania University.The selected University Level Sprinters N=90 were randomly assigned into 3-groups and each group consist of n=30 . 30 Sprinters underwent treatment of plyometric training program, 30 Sprinters experimental group-II resistance training group underwent treatment of resistance training program and control group 30 Sprinters participated only their regular routine of Sprint Training for 12 Weeks. To assess the Speed 50 M Run  were used in the Pre Test and Post Test of the Study.Accordingly, the results obtained showed that the intervention of Plyometric Training (PT) and Resistance Training (RT) on speed significantly improved among treatment groups.
