Offseason DEFENSE GROUP TRAINING SESSIONS
Class Description: This class is going to be a group training session, to help each participant develop to become a consistent and well-rounded defensive threat. The instructors of these sessions are former collegiate baseball players that have experience playing in the multiple College World Series as well as having nationally accredited training certifications.
- SKILL SPECIFIC Training: The first portion of this DEFENSIVE session will be spent working on the general as well as position specific skills that will set each class participant up for repeatable success on each and every play. Some of the specific skills, which will be worked on will be bio-mechanically efficient movements to increase throwing velocity and decreasing the risk of injury, as well as glove-work, footwork, tagging, and situational awareness.
- PERFORMANCE DEVELOPMENT Training: The second portion of this DEFENSIVE session will be spent in the weight room developing each participant’s performance capability by increasing their speed, strength, power, explosiveness and tissue integrity (to prevent injury). This will be done with the use of force development training, jump training, lateral and linear movement development, as well as using resistance training.
