Gannon Hampton

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.

Rotational Power
Rotational Athlete guarantees athletes will increase their throwing velocity and striking power by increasing proper biomechanics and plane-specific power development. All rotational sports will benefit from the program tremendously.
benefit-image-1
Shoulder Health
Rotational Athlete focuses on posture, increasing scapular stability, and strengthening the rotator cuff to allow the humerus to move smoothly within the shoulder joint, increasing performance and decreasing injury rate.
benefit-image-2
Conditioning
Rotational Athlete uses appropriate conditioning methods for athletes to transfer to the field, court, or cage. In addition, Rotational Athlete will increase movement efficiency and develop a robust aerobic system allowing athletes to recover between explosive bouts.
benefit-image-3
Lower Back Health
Rotational Athlete focuses on balancing rotation with anti-rotational concepts to keep the core strong and lower back healthy. We understand rotational athletes get a ton of extension and rotation, so we use proper exercise selection to combat this.

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.

FAQs
Do I need to complete all 5 days?
No. Five days is for the athlete that is currently in their off-season and can dedicate the time and energy to completing 5 days. MWF or MW will still help the athlete crush their goals.
Is there an age limit on this program?
No. If the athlete is capable of following directions and is mature enough to weight train by themselves they can perform Rotational Athlete. If the athlete has no experience we recommend they have a professional with them when performing the program.
