Progressing Exercises is a super important and effective method that we utilise with all of our athletes. In the videos it can be seen by starting off basic then transitioning movements to incorporate an extra component.
.
Movements don’t have to be always new and improved, allow athletes to become comfortable and an expert at one set of desired movements before trying to make it too complicated! 🏆

⚠️ Importance of In-Season Training ⚠️
.
There’s definitely some sort of “stigma” around in-season strength training, particularly from younger athletes who are worried they’re overtraining or will too fatigued for training/games. Bottom line is if you’re not using it you’re losing it (strength/power), not to mention the importance of injury prevention strength training provides. There’s always ways around in-season training, we’re qualified to program and periodise based on athletes training phases/stages of season. If you’ve dropped your workload due to being worried about overtraining or being flat for training & games, reach out to a qualified professional. If the elite are in the gym multiple times a week during season, why can’t you be?

Shout out to @mtaylor_sportscience who inspired this post from a chat a few weeks back.

Building strength while keeping a high level of focus on technique is important for all athletes especially youth!
.
The Trap Bar Deadlift is a super beneficial movement if done correctly. James is demonstrating correctly all the key elements of the lift that have to be done such as, hinge through hips then locking out glutes, chest pushed high with shoulders locked back and head tracking with back.
.
Our elite cyclist @jimmy._anthony has continued to progress really well through the first phase of this year with the plan of competing in Italy over the next few months! 🏆

Both Single Leg & Double Leg jump and land movemen

Both Single Leg & Double Leg jump and land movements are crucial to most field based athletes!
.
With so many movements occurring that incorporate these actions in Kensley’s footy games it is important for us to work on her jump & land mechanics at the beginning of the session to ensure a decrease of injury on the weekend.
.
We start our athletes off with the basics and then slowly transition them into more advanced progressions! We are always looking out for basic technique such as, foot ground contact positions and ability to generate power for the body to propel either vertically or horizontally!
.
Get in touch with us if you think you’ll benefit from learning the correct jump & land techniques!

Big shoutout to our athlete @mmasonsmith on winning another pro fight over the weekend, taking his record to 3-0.

With last year being a tough one for all athletes, Mason’s preparation began 16 weeks before the fight. Powering through his program coach @michaelculliver put together which focused on strength initially then transitioning into power as the fight neared.

Why do we regularly test all of our athletes? 🤔
.
@melbourneathletic we strive to offer a premium service to all athletes who trust in us to help them achieve sporting success!
.
Testing days are included in our service to ensure that our athletes are progressing not only in the right direction but also at the right pace. We make it our aim to test our athletes Strength, Power & Speed regularly!
.
Another advantage is we identify a baseline for athletes in the unfortunate case of injury. The testing provides us data to allow for us to understand the level they will need to be at post injury testing!

This morning our rugby boys were in with coach @michaelculliver using the @trainwithpush power band!
.
There are so many benefits to using this technology especially when a focus on power is being prioritised. It’s gives our coaches another dimension to look at and analyse while our athletes are completing certain exercises.
.
With benefits such as increased Power, Strength & Speed it’s a no brainer for us to use it as it will only benefit our athletes! Let us know if you want to take your training to the next level with us!🏆
