HOW TO IMPROVE SPEED ON A TENNIS SERVE.

Image
The following is a very useful exercise to improve the tennis serve. In order to perform the exercise is recommended to have a rubber at least at one end has a comfortable grip for the hand, although it can be done without meeting this requirement with another type of rubber, although it will be more uncomfortable. The objective of this exercise is to use the rubber to apply resistance to movement. To do this, the way to place our body in the initial position will be the position we have when taking a serve. The starting point begins with the shoulder of the dominant hand below the non-dominant line. Once there and start the movement in which we will perform all the movement of body and arm, trying to simulate the point of impact advanced and high that has to be in a good serve. Thanks to the elastic band we will obtain that the point of greater tension is in the highest point reason why the gain of power in the last phase of the hit will be greater and the transference to the ser

BEST 4 EXERCISES TO IMPROVE THE JUMP.

BAND GOOD MORNINGS Using a 41 inch band, stand on one end, spreading your feet a small amount. Bend at the hips to loop the end of the band behind your neck. This will be your starting position. Keeping your legs straight, extend through the hips to come to a near vertical position. Ensure that you do not round your back as you go down back to the starting position. BAND VERTICAL JUMPS Step 1: If you do not have access to vertimax or bands/belt then skip this exercise and move on to the next exercise Dumbbell Squat Jump. Step 2: For this exercise you will need 2 bands, a belt, 2 carabiners and 2 heavy dumbbells (70 lbs minimum) to anchor the bands. Step 3: Stand in the middle with tension on the bands and jump as high as you can. Aim for max height on each jump but also try to get off the floor as fast as possible BAND PULL THROUGH To do Resistance Band Pull Throughs, anchor the band around a pole, furniture or in a doorway.

HOW TO IMPROVE HOCKEY PERFORMANCE USING ELASTIC BANDS

Continuing with the post related to performance improvement in some sports, we bring you a video that we believe can greatly help those who practice ice hockey. Next we show you how we can train some aspects of hockey with elastic bands. In the next link you can see some videos related to the training with elastic bands for hockey. 📹RESISTANCE BAND TRAINING FOR HOCKEY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZoRIJRMrOM 📹HOCKEY AGILITY STEP OVER DRILL | HOCKEY SPEED | HOCKEY LEG RESISTANCE BANDS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmx3Z6V70WE 📹TRAIN LIKE A PRO: ON-ICE TRAINING WITH RUBBER BANDS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivKsqegvwuw 📹 TRAINING FOR HOCKEY: 3 EXERCISES FOR A STRONGER TORSO (AND HARDER SHOT) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRN11tJRUwg 📹HOCKEY STICK SPEED DRILL USING BANDS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BR5Yx7mJ9c Hockey is a sport that in some countries is not well known so if you have come to this post and would like to know more about hoc

HOW TO IMPROVE THE PADEL DEFENSE WITH ELASTIC BANDS

When we are in the defensive position it is very important to keep the center of gravity low, as most ball come at a low height. An example would be an opponent's volley, with a cut-off effect that slides on the court and reaches below the knee. A common mistake is to have a high center of gravity, which makes our shots imprecise. Normally this occurs because the armed when we are with the center of gravity are made above the ball producing that many times we hit the ball with cut effect. To hit with cut effect is very unadvisable since it is necessary to be very precise to avoid that the ball gets up. For this reason we have designed the following exercise. In the we can see how it is using the elastic bands that go from ankles to the belt, coa that makes that when the position of the player is very high the bands exert more tension, so the player will notice a relief of tension if it lowers its center of gravity.   The material us

CORDINATION WORK WITH RESISTANCE.

Next, we expose a proposal of exercise for the work of the coordination of the paddle player adding the complexity of the addition of an elastic band to make difficult the movements. We can say that this would be a hybrid work between coordination and work of resistance force. It is very important to know the level of the athlete to be able to choose correctly the time and the exercises that are going to be presented. An example is that we are not going to work with the same intensity or difficulty of patterns with a child or with an adult. This type of exercises present a large number of variations with which we can go playing to achieve our goals. As there are many possibilities, a large number of exercises can be designed that will give eta a great variability (an aspect that is highly valued by students).

PHYSICAL PREPARATION IN PADEL WITH THE USE OF ELASTIC BANDS.

With the growth that has experienced the paddle in recent years, the increase in professionalism has increased, ie there is a greater number of people who take a step further this sport and make it their profession, is also seeing lately an increase in amateur players who start in semi-professional and amateur competition. In the moment that the word competition appears there is always the intention to improve the performance for this, so every day there are more people interested in improving their level of paddle. Now comes the question, how can I improve my level of paddle? The solution is very broad, but we can face the question by saying that the performance can improve by increasing the level in the main components existing in this sport, this in my opinion are broad outlines: Hitting technique. Tactics when playing. Psychology of the subject with respect to the game. Physical abilities of the subject. Knowing this, I can tackle the problem of improving by attacking diff

TIP TO IMPROVE THE RIGHT VOLLEY WITH AN ELASTIC BAND.

In this post we are going to perform an exercise to improve one of the key aspects when making a good right volley. we are going to work the hit keeping the elbow of the dominant arm near the body. In the paddle all strokes are made close to the body because, in this position is where we find greater control in our blows, in the volley the elbow of the dominant arm is very important because in amateur players is difficult to learn and mechanize the technical gesture, as the tendency is to hit with the arm separated from the body as this gesture can come to noticeare more comfortable than the other. It is important to be clear that in this exercise we will apply tension in the elbow to try to bring it closer to the body so it can be somewhat uncomfortable. It is important to place the elastic band over the elbow joint to allow slight freedom of movement. Next we can see an image of how it would be well placed and badly placed.
