Explosive Medicine Ball Training – Explosive Athletic Strength Training Workouts
Guest Video from John Cortese www.CortesePerformance.com Strength Training http Benefits: Great for teaching proper acceleration mechanics for novice and youth athletes. Can be done outdoors on grass or sand. Teaches triple extension of the foot, knee, and ankle in body positions specific to horizontal/vertical jumping and sprint starts. Teaching time is minimal- just throw the ball as fast and far/high as possible! Activates CNS prior to speed/strength training.
Love the throw and scramble drills! Awesome video and post!
I just bought a medicine ball too, perfect timing, thank you!
Great ideas
Thanks guys! I love these drills. A must have in your training programs in my opinion! Thanks for watching.
