Rotational Athlete is our cornerstone program for any sport that involves throwing, serving, swinging, kicking, or punching. Breaking down the mechanics of rotational power you will see that power comes from dissociation of the hips between the upper and lower body. We establish dissociation with our corrective exercises, movement prep, and various exercises specific to increasing rotational movement and power. When we couple our movement series with our strength and conditioning program our athletes find themselves throwing harder, striking with more power, and not gassing out as fast. Our methods have been used time and time again to help athletes receive scholarships, sign pro-contracts, and to play the sport they love at their peak performance.

Lateral Acceleration
When we do our sprint work it has to be done at the highest intensity possible. If it is not at least above 95% then we have turned our sprint work into conditioning. Make sure you take a full recovery between each set so at least 1 minute. Stay low, think about driving through the ground and ripping the arms long and violent.
