Performance (Leg focused):

Tip: HIP EXTENSION TWO WAYS

In the Speed Strength section today, you will experience a combination of plyometrics and Olympic lifting. Both exercises require a forceful hip extension to complete each respective movement. Both exercises work on power output at high speeds but at different points along the speed-strength continuum. To become a well-rounded and powerful athlete, you must work on all aspects of speed and strength.
