What do you believe you need more of in your training? More rotation? Is the low back super cranky? Pick 1-2 exercises and get started.
Being lean, strong, and healthy are byproducts of moving right. Are you squatting, hip hinging, lunging, pressing, pulling, and carrying?
In this phase, we will focus on developing more stability. We’ll also introduce movement patterns that the athlete will need down the road.
Programming for this age must be based on the understanding that most speed and strength gains in young athletes are due to motor learning, improved motor coordination, and nervous system development/adaptation.
After publication of the Swing Block Method, emails came non-stop from coaches asking how to implement the program in their schools. Here is the answer. The program within will give your team the greatest strength results it has ever seen.
Whether you like it or not, all exercises are NOT created equal.
If you understand simple physics, anatomy, and biomechanics, you can understand movement better.
Active/Dynamic Warm Up Versus Functional Movement Screen…Which is best?
A stable and optimal hip can produce force in all three dimensions of movement—flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, and internal/external rotation.
For many years, speed was considered some mystified aspect of sport performance that was measurable but unchanging.
Somewhere along the line in the past five years or so, the industry and fitness enthusiasts alike have grown crazy over this concept of functional training.
I was fortunate enough to call upon the efforts of Dr. Yessis to help find out the root mechanical cause in Troy’s throwing and come up with a program to improve him.
