The differents areas of work to be improved
-
Endurance
It is essential, as in the majority of sports, to establish the aerobic bases which will allow our athletes to digest the load of the summer preparation but also that during the whole season. To do this, it is advisable to carry out sessions that are not very intense but which last over time by using the aerobic system (jogging, fartlek, split, intermittent, etc.). These sessions can be performed with the Sportbeeper Pro
-
Explosiveness
Explosiveness is an important area to improve. Cela permet notamment de réagir plus rapidement et d’effectuer un mouvement sur un temps assez court.
In order to improve explosiveness, your athlete must perform complex movements in a relatively short period of time. Examples include push-ups, medicine ball throws or even punching bag work.
-
Power
Finally, we will recall that power is equal to speed multiplied by force.
Working on plyometrics is fundamental. Indeed, this type of work makes it possible to improve relaxation during jumps, to increase the capacity to change direction, to gain strength endurance and thus to prevent possible injury.
Strength training should also be carried out. The latter will make it possible to withstand the many shocks. The abdominal belt as well as the arms should be major elements to work on.
