Everything about jumping and sprinting and how to improve your performance
In my latest YouTube video I show you a multi muscular movement workout which is easy to do. It incorporates eccentric, concentric and isometric exercises. These develop greater power and also resilience - so they are great at combatting injury.
You’ll see box to box jumps, drop and block jumps with added weight, and isometric squats and hamstring bridges, for example. We will often do this workout in season as it does not have a too draining effect on muscles or mind. It’ll often be a part of our Saturday workout when there are no comps. In terms of reps and sets we’re looking at 3-4 x 6 reps of the jump exercises and 3-4 sets of the eccentric ones with some variation (where relevant) with the angles or limbs positions held. Holds are around 10sec. If you’ve any specific questions then let me know. Jargon buster: Eccentric - muscular lengthening Concentric - muscular shortening Isometric - no muscular action
