No. bodyweight exercises are a great way to define this exercise. it is very helpful and safe, but it does not fit the description of a plyometric exercise. This is because while plyometric involves eccentric contractions followed by concentric ones, it also is supposed to activate the myotatic reflex. However, reflexes are involuntary. they are in response to a stimulus. but these exercises are under voluntary control. the reflex is overridden. they are simple bodyweight exercises only.

Is there any difference between plyometrics & bodyweight exercises?
