Plyo = plyometrics = jumping on things, like my coffee table. I usually do core workouts on top of these.

Similar to box jumps? Are there single power exercises in there as well?

Ive found that single leg plyo work has more carry over to riding than using two legs. The reason being that you use one leg to generate force/power in the bike. So, single leg squat jumps, split jumps that kind of thing.

Very nice, "To The Max" is a great endurance athlete strength book. I'd recommend it quite a bit.
