Making summer workout efficient

A new video has been posted from a NSCA presentation. It includes some ways of working in speed mechanics and techniques while grouping with warm up and flexibility movements as well. May times young athletes will get bored with mechanic and technique work and will lose their focus quicker than normal. Hopefully pairing the movements will help maintain focus and be efficient during workouts. Also towards the end are some DB & BB complexes as well as ab routines. Hope this will help in your training as we gear up for summer training!

Westside Barbell Visit - Max Effort Lower

What a great trip to Westside Barbell! Louie Simmons hosted a seminar that included Paul Childress (University of Buffalo- S&C coach, John Sayer - expert in martial arts and Louie himself). Not only was their lectures regarding developing strength - best of all we got to see a maximum effort lower body workout in person. Box squats with 900+ are on the video as well as a 680+ female squat.
