Program Goal:
Build an athlete's structural integrity, increase force production, and bolster against injuries for the upcoming season. The program is split into two phases; hypertrophy and strength.
During the hypertrophy phase the goal is to improve muscle mass and density of bone, tendons, and ligaments to prepare for the following phase. In the strength phase the goal is to improve force production through higher intensities with lower reps and longer rest periods than the previous phase. Introductory speed and power work will also be added into the strength phase to prepare the athlete for upcoming season power needs.
Sport injury risk will be mitigated through the athlete working in all 3 planes of motion, maintaining a balanced push-pull ratio through the phases, and having a variety of bilateral and unilateral movements. Every day starts with movement prep that is specific to the day's training session and end with mobility to improve functional range of motion.
