If your season starts in September, then you better be working on your off-season training by now or in the VERY near future.
The thing I am not sure you realize is that your first phase of the off-season must be focused on building a foundation – a better foundation than you had a year ago at this time. After all, your goal is not to finish this off-season just as strong, just as stable and just as fast as you were last year is it?
Hell no! Your goal is to be more stable, stronger and faster than last season. Well, in order to do that, you need to bolster your foundation. It is simple physics. If you were going to add another level to your house, would you just start building away from the roof up? I hope not. You would have to create a foundation upon which to build that next level. Your off-season training is exactly the same.
So I have put together a video to show you what you should be doing at this point in the season. Don’t worry if it looks a little easy – do the workout, build the foundation over the first 3-4 weeks and then go from there.
If you want the more advanced version, then just click HERE and check out the program I put together for those Future Pros or even the BABLs who still want to train like a pro.
How often to do each element…
Do one set of the flexibility exercise.
Do three sets of the strength exercises and you can pair them up into supersets and alternate between the two exercises, so you do not have to sit around the water fountain resting after each set.
Do the energy system workout 2-3 times per week.

Here is the video showing you exactly how to do each exercise, how many sets and reps to do and even the tempo for the strength exercises – make sure you do not cheat on the tempo – I know some of them are really slow – they are supposed to be right now.
Enjoy and happy training!
