"Athletes move better, seem stronger and act more

"Athletes move better, seem stronger and act more confidently on the field."
.
We genuinely appreciate when coaches trust us with their players. We're all working toward the same goal: seeing that player succeed in life, on and off the field. We also appreciate when an organization shares similar values to ours. @evobaseball3n2 president Phil Price has worked hard to establish a culture of dedication, accountability and consistency, and we're proud to train EVO athletes.
.
"The Strength House trainers seem to care for their athletes in ways other trainers don't. From holding athletes accountable for their training absences to the graduation platform of athletes moving from group training to individualized training, Strength House puts care into how their athletes progress under their care. EVO athletes who have consistently stayed active with The Strength House move better, seem stronger and genuinely act more confident when performing on the field and in practices."

A huge advantage of working in groups for the firs

A huge advantage of working in groups for the first half of our sessions is that we can utilize several different movement preparation schemes every week, and make subtle changes week to week.

This keeps a level of challenge, and combats boredom. Nobody wants to do the same pre training routine for 4 weeks in a row, 4x per week. It isn’t needed, and it’s just monotonous.

So here’s today’s movement prep which preceded Multi Directional Work, Med Ball and Upper Body Weights.

Series 1:
- Lateral Shifts w/ KB Switches (get the feel of tension and relaxation plus getting into the hips laterally): 40sec
- Ankle To Hamstring Rocks w/ Rotation (control knee travel while keeping arch in foot, feel hamstrings, work on contra-lateral movement: 40sec/side
- KB Shoot The Moon - (Feel hips drive rotational movement, groove sequencing): 40sec / side

Series 2:
- Lateral Med Ball Chops (more violent progression from lateral shifts with ballistic component): 40sec / side
- Crawl w/ Perturbations: (progress the contralateral movement, with littered in need to organize stability from outside feedback) : 40sec
- Forward Lunge w/ Rotation - (explore bigger ranges at the hips and t-spine before rotational med ball work): 40sec/side

Series 3:

- Partner mirror side shuffle to chase through constraints: 3 each
- Partner 5-10 drill w/ Med Ball Run Down: 3 each
- Run and Gun w/ Turn and Burn: 3 each

Chest-Supported Lat Pulldowns
.
Here's a movement

Chest-Supported Lat Pulldowns
.
Here's a movement we love to build the lats. This will add size to your upper back, as well as vital support for a strong bench press. Plus, if you don't have a dedicated lat pulldown station, this is a solid substitute.
.
Set up a 90-degree bench between two separate cable stacks. Using separate handles (we love the @angle90.grips.official ones) gives you more freedom to rotate your wrists in whatever way feels best to you. Make sure you're close enough to the stacks that your arms stay fairly vertical. Also, you may want to place a heavy object (we use our 44kg kettlebell) in front of the bench so it doesn't scoot around.
.
Sit with your entire torso flush against the bench, and when you're ready to start the movement, lift everything ABOVE your belly button off of the bench. This teaches you to extend your upper back instead of your lower back, which is the "chest up" we're looking for with squats and deadlifts. Plus, your lats will contract harder in this position.
.
Pull the handles toward you and drive your elbows as far DOWN (not as far back) as possible. Focus on squeezing your lats hard, everything from your armpits down toward your hip pockets.
.
As you let your arms lift up again, lean your torso back toward the bench pad and REACH up high to get a nice lat stretch at the top. Don't sacrifice range of motion here in order to use more weight, as this big stretch at the top can help lead to more muscle growth AND promote better shoulder mobility.
.
Give these a try on your next upper body day and let us know what you think!

Here’s another look into our approach to movemen

Here’s another look into our approach to movement preparation. As stated before movement prep should:

- explore movement
- couple perception and action
- be open and closed chain in terms of afferent and efferent feedback
- allow creative expression, competition and fun.

Reductionist approaches to movement are elementary. Coaches need to place requisite movement within stronger contexts. You don’t need to go joint by joint, unless that keeps you warm at night.

Here’s what we did today:

Series 1:
- Split Squat hold with creative hand to hand KB switches - 40sec / leg
- 90/90 Heel Clicks x 40 sec / leg
- 2-Point Leg Sweeps x 40 sec / leg (thanks for the inspiration @vernongriffith4)

Series 2:
- Push Up Hold, Hands In Front of Shoulders: 40sec
- Supine Y’s: 40sec
- Standing Y To RDL: 40sec

Series 3:
- PVC Drop, Go, Catch: 60sec Continuous (thanks for the inspiration @bbaperformance)
- Ball Bounce Get Up and Catch: 6/athlete
- Vertical Jump w/ Nudge and 1-Leg Stick: 3/side

Hope this opens some doors for other coaches - get creative while covering your bases!

Here’s a great drill for our throwing athletes.

Here’s a great drill for our throwing athletes. However, single leg stability while rotating into the front side is really applicable to most all athletes.

You can use a plate, med ball, or aqua ball. This really depends on what provides the right failure rate. Try and choose an implement that knocks you off balance at least 1/5 attempts.

Lateral jumps are solid, maybe most of all because of the deceleration component. Adding the pull down simply creates more need to organize stability throughout the body, and directs forces more specifically to how they may be dealt with when throwing, swinging etc.

Are athletes are a big fan of these for the “feel” transfer they have as well.

Give them a try!
