3-Part Sports Performance Series Video 2 | INCREASING SPEED AND POWER WITH PLYOMETRICS

For a Step-By-Step Sports Performance System that Maximizes Your TEAMS Off-Season Training and Athletic Potential : https://oneightyathletics.com/elite1 The ability to apply a reactive force is the major goal of plyometric training. An increase in power will directly correlate to an increase in Speed and Explosion. We will implement plyometrics on Monday and Thursday during our speed / plyo workouts. We will also implement with complex training with our workouts. Example Squats with vertical jumps. It is extremely important to land properly when absorbing force. Key Cues: Feet under hips, hips above knees, in power position, chest tall, knees over toes, weight on front two-thirds of feet. Broad Jump is different, heal to toe. Guidelines Who – Athletes that can safely squat 1 ½ times their body weight and are in good physical condition. High-level plyometric exercise (repetitive bounding exercises) are not recommended for those that weigh more than 230 pounds. Surface – The plyometric program should be done on a soft, level surface, preferably a synthetic surface that has some give. Avoid doing plyometrics drills on hard surfaces or where the ground may be uneven and unsafe. Warm-up – Always warm-up the body thoroughly before the plyometric workout Off-Season Performance training should set you and your athletes up for next season, which really started the day after last season ended. It should be high tempo, fast paced, and focused on teaching (or re-teaching) technique, injury prevention and improving size, strength, speed, and mental toughness. Sticking with a consistent, well-rounded, scientifically based performance program aimed at keeping athletes healthy, competing in everything they do, and completely changing the body over several months of focused work should be paramount. Those programs who COMMIT to training in the off season are the ones who can dominate the line of scrimmage, run the ball at will, and have a defense that nobody wants to face… All qualities of most championship teams. You have to commit time in order to get results! Coaches who put together a workout during their open period will get minimal results. Coaches who put together a detailed plan in advance, and have exceptionally high standards will get the most out of their time, their facilities, their resources, and ultimately their kids. Let’s break this all down and give you the tools to dominate in the weight room this offseason.
