Hello Friends,
If you care about succeeding in your sport, then in-season training has to be a staple for you during your competitive season.
See
In-season training is one of the most neglected aspects of training my athletes & coaches of all levels.
They limit how much they train in-season because they fear it will make them sore and negatively affect them on game day.
Or
They train for "maintenance", never chasing adaptation & doing the bare minimum, hoping that it helps keep all the progress they made in the off-season.
This couldn't be any further from the truth.
You must chase adaptation in-season.
Here's how to do it:
1) Low Dose Sprint Work
Sprinting is the foundation for any strong athletic developmental program.
Training acceleration and max velocity in-season will help improve speed while making the body more resilient to injury.
2) Low Dose Jump Work
As important as sprint work is to developing athletes, jump work is just as crucial.
Jumping in different planes of motion will not only build force and power, but it will build resiliency throughout the entire system
3) Total Body Strength Work
2-3 days a week of total body lifting is enough to promote strength adaptations in-season.
A steady dose of explosive, lower & upper movements will help you continue to build strength, helping in acceleration & reducing the risk of injury.
Using these methods, we have seen our volleyball team speed average improve from 7.34 m/s (16.51 mph) to 7.47 m/s (16.99 mph) with only 5 weeks of training.
Get an advantage on your opponents by training hard & smart in-season.
It will make a world of difference in having success in your sport.
P.S.
If you are looking for a remote in-season program to improve your speed, power & strength
Respond to this email with "SPEED" & I will share more details about my remote training program.
I am currently looking to take on 1 more client for the month of October, so make sure you respond quickly before the slot is filled.
Thanks
