“The Tune-Up” aka Preseason Prep

This is a 2 day, 4 week program for the recreational team sport athlete focused on preparing commonly injured muscles & joints for upcoming season. You don’t need to be cripplingly sore after a game or constantly worried about blowing a hammy because you haven't moved in 8 months.

Focus on developing the resilience and tolerance of hamstrings, ankles, groin, low back, knees and shoulders using isometrics, progressive overload and plyometrics

Build with the Basics
Use basic strength training movements like squats, pushups, and rows to build strength, gain joint stability, and prepare for the demands of competition.

Isometric Strength
This program utilizes isometrics (holding a specific position for a given amount of time) to gain strength in specific positions and build up tissue tolerance to large volumes of activity.

Be strong... fast
Plyometric movements like jumps, hops, skips, throws, and landings are the bridge between weight-room movements and sport. Prepare your body to absorb and produce force rapidly with 4 weeks of plyometrics progressions.
