WSSC basketball athlete James being coached by performance coach jay on landing mechanics = eccentric strength both double leg and single leg working on body awareness and postural control with linear and lateral jumps = multi plane! Field based sport athletes must be able to control landings from their jumps and activate muscles that stablizer the joint eg VMO, glutes etc. Athletes need to be coached on this to increase capacity and become more efficient! Landing sticks like this combined with a holistic and well rounded physical preparation program that includes; strength, ballistic, speed, conditioning and injury prevention work will lead to better prepared and performed athletes. Prevention is better than cure ...prepare better and you will not have to rehab that injury! Contact WSSC now for a science based approach! Coaches tip; athletic base landing...hips, knees and ankles flexed...knees out! Jumping and landing is a motor skill meaning you have to coach athletes for efficiency and mastery! Contact WSSC now for a science based approach! Info@woodfordssc or PM. #wssc #changingthegame
