CORE STRENGTH & STABILITY

Training the body's midsection is much more than working to get a six-pack stomach. Core training is critical for good performance. The core section connects the body's upper and lower limbs and acts as the body's power regulator. 


In throwing events such as the javelin, the efficient transfer of force determines the acceleration in which the javelin is thrown and subsequently the distance it is thrown.

Three separate core training cards will be used during this program to address core strength, core stability and core rotation.

SPEED WORK

A session to get explosive and fast with speed work. Wind sprints help muscle toning particularly in the glutes and legs as well as adding a key athletic skill to the exercise plan.



As an injury preventing measure, sprint at no more than eighty percent of your top speed. Additionally, ensure that you complete the general and specific warm-ups before sprinting and that you cool down and stretch afterwards.

BUILD A TIGHT BOOTY WITH ATHLETIC TRAINING


Athletes in general have some of the shapeliest and toned backsides on the planet. The glutes are best activated by power and speed movements; such as dashing and jumping. Explosive sporting events such as long and triple jumping, pole vaulting, sprinting, tennis and volleyball rely heavily on powerful glutes. Having super strong glutes is a prerequisite for success in speed and power events. Bodybuilders talk about “glute day or “squat day”, for these athletes, every day is glute day!

Beach volleyball is considered an anaerobic power sport were diving, jumping and sprinting are common activities. Beach volleyball players' power development training program includes two types of activities; plyometrics (jumping drills) and weight lifting. Speed, agility and quickness (SAQ) training gives players the ability to change directions quickly and reduces the chances of injury while conducting drills with the volley ball.

Sprinting and jumping are great ways to tone your derriere and build an athletic physique. Hurdlers do both in a single event. Hurdlers are phenomenal athletes; curvy and strong, fast and fit. Using their training techniques will go a long way in developing physical skills while shaping and toning your entire body.
