Try this execise to test how fast and explosive you are - if you can manage it you probably don't need plyometrics

never done any plyometrics and recently tested my vertical jump at 1.05m, can do a standing high jump over my own height (1.80m), standing long jump over 3.50m, 40 yard dash 4.28s etc etc... funny how all those big heavy slow power lifts make you slow and muscle bound isn't it. Dunno if plyometrics would help my athletic performance, but I somehow doubt it, I rate heavy deadlifts over anything else for any kind of speed/power development

Whilst I see your point, many of the top sprinters and sprint coaches seem to think they have some value. They also tend to do the quick lifts. Not that they are right, but you would think they knew a thing or two about sprint training?

Depends how long you've been doing them. A muscle will only work as it's trained to work. Another 5 years of slow heavy lifts without any athletic training may see a change to your original viewConfused

yes, I should mention that I've always done them alongside sprint training and maintained my bodyweight. just making the point that I'd always been told i was wrong to lift the way I was doing, yet my sprint pb's have always coincided with a deadlift pb Confused

I'm sure you're right, if I did no track work things wouldn't be the same, but there are definitely other options than doing specific plyometric work to get the same training effect. I personally think just being as explosive as you can on all your warmup sets goes a long way
