Another off-season finished for and it was his best yet. Prior to him leaving for another season in the .league_official, Yoeli hit a personal best in just about every force plate metric we collect. When it comes to our force plate testing we not only collect and analyze outputs, but also a number of strategy based metrics that tell us how an athlete is achieving those specific outputs.
Coming off a MVP and player of the year season would satisfy most, but not Yoeli. If you were to talk to him he would contribute much of his success and overall health to prioritizing a “true” off-season here at OPZ.

Good luck this year Yoe! 👊

Coming off his best NBA season of his career Sam Merrill is spending his first off-season here at OPZ. With a very specific skill set, Sam is one of the best 3-point shooters and off-ball movers in the league. Sam is both a pro on and off the court with the willingness to spend adequate time to his off-season work.

Dedicating time in the off-season to develop overall athleticism, certain physical qualities, individual work capacity, resiliency and efficient movement skills will allow Sam to play at his peak even deep into playoffs, similar to what he did this past season in the eastern conference finals.

As with any athlete sometimes the best ability is availability. With that being said, a main emphasis for Sam this off-season is to build resiliency and durability in preparation for the 82+ games to come. Here’s a little look into his day 1 workout!🔥😤

We love to see having a solid season with after a successful off-season with us. Since last summer, Easton has consistently shown up and worked hard, and it’s been showing.

He has started every game, is batting over .300 and has 11 home runs including a walk-off.

Keep up the good work Jonesy! 💪

Good luck to Avery as she travels to Spain with the U-16 Girls’ National Team to play in a International Friendly Tournament ⚽️ 🔥

Here is a workout she recently went through in preparation for the U-16 Girls’ U.S. Soccer YNT April Camp. Just a little glimpse of how Avery trains off the pitch. Improvement comes around every corner for Avery, but only because she shows up and consistently puts in work. Development is the objective. 📈

Stick around for the end for some burn 🔥🔥

Through his internship experiences he has learned valuable coaching skills, not only in the weight room, but on the field as well.

Chandler played lacrosse in high school and is passionate about all sports, athletic development and human movement. He’s excited to be back at OPZ and help our athletes achieve their goals.

Can’t wait to see first-hand what Chandler is able to achieve here!
