Cheerleaders can Train for Higher Jumps

Cheerleading/Gymnastics

It’s important to understand what muscle to train when dealing with each individual sport.  Cheerleading and gymnastics work hand in hand when it comes to training.  To be an elite athlete in this category, an athlete must have a strong core, explosive power in their legs, and hip flexor strength.  The great thing about Kbands is that this is their exact purpose. Lifting your legs with the Kbands on will strengthen hip flexors with every movement. Why strengthen your hip flexors you might ask? Hip flexors are in charge of how much control and power an athlete can lift their leg vertically.  For cheerleading and gymnastics hip flexor strength is the bread and butter of kick height.

Kbands will also make these athletes more explosive and increase jump height.  By adding resistance to the legs while completing everyday cheerleading/gymnastics exercises athletes will find themselves jumping/kicking higher and increasing flexibility each and every training session.

Kbands will make Football Players More Explosive

Football

Football is a sport where god given talent will only take you so far.  Football players must work hard to become the quickest most powerful athletes they can be to get to the next level.  Without proper training an athlete can be left on the sidelines while their competition excels in the sport.

Kbands offer football players the ability to utilize speed camp training year round. Faster, more explosive athletes are not created over night.  They are molded day after day, month after month of hard training. The power needed to get to the next level in football is through strong legs and a core that can utilize this power.  Without a strong core an athlete may be able to pick up the gym, sort of speak, but any sudden movements will leave the athlete on his back.  For example, large linemen that weigh 305 pounds may be able to bench press 485 pounds but can’t seem to move their opponent from the nine of scrimmage. Many things such as technique or leg strength may account for this problem, but more than likely a week core is to blame. All the strength in the world can be wasted if an athlete does not have the means to transfer power from their legs into a sport specific movement.
What I suggest

Like I said before football is a sport of strength, power, and agility. Lift to match those requirements. (2-5 explosive quick reps of three sets. Make sure multi joint movements are the focus of each lifting session.) During this power/strength building phase football players should then begin an agility/core stability training program.  Kbands Speed and Core Training DVD is ideal for these needs.  The bands will increase an athlete’s hip stability, work the glutes, and add resistance to every sprint and agility move.  Resistance to the legs will increase leg power and give athletes’ a feather like feeling when they compete. This DVD is also package with a core strengthening routine that is second to none.
If you are serious about your football future you must work for power, speed, agility, and strengthen your core to put everything you built into action.

Kbands will benefit Baseball players

Baseball/Softball

Baseball is a sport where most every movement is a combination of lateral and rotational movements.  When an athlete has weak glutes they run into many inefficiencies with these particular movements. So when training an athlete it is important to train in a sports specific fashion, as well as a general skill building fashion.  What I mean by this is building an athlete’s speed, agility, and core strength will take an athlete to the next level, but to make this correlate to sports specific movements, individual sports trainings is necessary.

There are many benefits to training with Kbands that will help baseball players improve their game. Kbands will increase a player’s glute strength and hip stability.  Training these muscles will help with center of balance, preventing knee injuries, and explosive first steps.  Hip flexors are used in many baseball movements (leg lift for pitchers/hitters). Stronger hip flexors increase speed, power, and explosion. When reaching maximal speed hip flexors play a major role in continuing to increase an athlete’s speed.

What I suggest.
Baseball/Softball is all about leg strength, core strength, rotational quickness, and hand eye coordination. A simple way to improve an athlete’s performance is to improve in these areas. An athlete should use Kbands Core and Speed Training DVD to become an overall functional athlete. After they have improved their core strength, worked for gains in overall body control, and have shown speed increases its time to start training in a sport specific fashion. This includes: ground ball drills, outfield drop step drills, leg drive training for pitchers…..ect. (All using the bands)
Soon we will offer baseball specific routines but to get a head start of the competition start by building your core and speed with Kbands Core and Speed Training DVD. Also become a member of the site to be notified of all the latest training techniques with the Kbands.
