Pre Workout Exercise Bike Warm Up for Athletes

Series Summary

Physical fitness training is one of the key factors in building a high performance sports team. Whether the sport is football, soccer, basketball, or hockey, the ability of the individual athletes to perform with more strength, speed, or agility than the other team can mean the difference between a play made and a play missed, a game won or lost. Often times, coaches will implement a well-thought-out fitness training plan for their team, using up half of a regular practice time with exercises aimed at bringing his or her athletes to the next level.

Often, the more intense and competitive the sport, the more responsible the athlete is to continue to train outside of the regular practice regimen. Profession athletes have personal trainers and highly individualized schedules of exercise that help to target specific weaknesses in their performance.

In this free physical fitness video clinic, learn how to train yourself, or your team of athletes, for increased flexibility, endurance, speed, agility, and strength. Our expert, a former NFL player, will show you exercises and field drills to address many areas of athletic conditioning. Clips include extensive stretching and muscle warm up exercises, techniques for using the medicine ball to build core strength and balance, and field drills using ropes, hurdles, and cones.
