6+ Jump & Sprint STABILISATION DRILLS. ENHANCE YOUR POWER

Video Timeline
Into: I explain why you should include stability and balance exercises in your training. This is something that I do every week - 2-3 times. Doing this will increase power and reduce injury potential. We are looking at protecting the knees, the hamstrings, the Achilles tendons and the core.
0.31min: Many of these exercises utilise a bar.
Stand in sprint posture and transfer bar from one hand to the other
You are integrating your whole body into the movement
0.58sec
Other bar stability variants
1.00min: Eccentric squats with bar overhead
This is a great exercise for stability and for knee health
1.25min Using a bar can also teach you to better recruit certain muscle group
Reverse hamstring lift 1.148min
More dynamic bar stabilisation drills
Foward and backward and lateral movements
2.20min: How many reps
2.32min: Blocking drills
Swing and block bounds
Speed skater with block
3.16min: Further Thoughts
Why you need to add stability exercises into your workouts. You don’t want to be a “cannon in a town boat” i.e. have lots of power and be able to use it effectively.
"You need to be synergistic between your big power producing muscles and your smaller stabilising muscles."
Some of the new to my group have poor control over these type of movement and this can show up in their actual jumping and sprinting and also in their potential for injury.
