A great Day in Training Land. Who wants to run stairs?

Good morning.

Today has started off well. We have finalized the summer schedule and have the trainers in place. We are ready to take on the summer of training. But enough about details of business.
Lets move on to an interesting question?

If you are an baseball, softball, or a player that has a only quick 15-30 sec sprints or no sprints at all, why do you run for 1 mile or more during your training? When does that apply to improving your performance?

Our thoughts are almost never. So why do we do it? Because that's just what we do or I seen some other players doing the same thing, well that is not good enough for you. We would recommend you do a metabolic run. It is a circuit of sprints and drills done for 3-4 minutes with rest in between the circuits. This more closely emulates the game and will greatly increase your conditioning level in a way that you can use.

See you tomorrow.
