ECCENTRIC-POWER PROGRAM:
- During this phase the goal adaptations are to improve the athletes eccentric strength and power output, by utilizing specific concentrated training for these two end goals.
- To improve eccentric strength at a fast rate the program utilizes supraximal eccentrics to overload the system maximally by using load that can only be trained with eccentrically, not concentrically. These eccentric lifts are performed through accentuated eccentrics and hand assisted lifts.
- To improve power output at a fast rate the program utilizes unilateral plyometrics primarily from a deep joint angle, that will carry over to higher/faster outputs from shallower joint angles during future speed training. Also the banded exercises are performed unilaterally and using the rebound method, which requires a great deal of eccentric strength to reverse the limb back into the band.
