Silas working the hill with plyometric one legged jumps. This exercise aids in giving the athlete the ability to perform more dynamic change of direction movements. Thus allowing the player to perform with more energy, strength, stamina, agility and with better balance on the pitch.

Grande laburo, Silas!!

Charlie and Ella working together with plyometric exercises designed to improve balance, strength, speed, agility and endurance. Working with a teammate or friend is a great way to challenge yourself and also have fun while working with a friend.

Great work, Charlie and Ella!!

What kind of work can you put in, in under a minute and 45 seconds?

This plyometric approach to getting better is designed to help every player no matter the level of athlete. If you’re an experienced advanced athlete, your gains will be greater with more consistent output.

These exercises will give you gains in speed, agility, strength, balance and endurance.

While working with a player, there has to be a trust factor between both parties. Trust that the process will allow them to gain the confidence and skills needed to be successful on la cancha.

Silas asked me to take a “trust” pic, so this is what we did! Trust, one of the most important aspects of 1-on-1 training.

With the season being over, we have now moved to the off-season portion of our training that will focus primarily on the body. In season I try to have a 80/20 focus; 80% on technical game, 20% on the body/mind/psychological aspects of the game. In the off-season that flips to 80% body/mind/psychological and 20% technical game. This allows a balance in the development of the athlete from the beginning of the season to the off-season and into the pre-season.

Plyometrics are one the best ways for young players to develop the ability to balance and change direction with either foot/leg while in motion.

Great effort by Ella and Max!!
