Training Female Athletes

At Udistrict we train a lot of high school top level male athletes, at the same time we also train a lot of top high school female athletes. With athletes that are at the top of their class you never want to hold back. Here's a video of a very good sophomore basketball player doing the same vertical jump challenge from a couple posts below. We started with the cone at 24" and built it up to a height that was the highest she could clear at 38".

So the story here is, if you are training a good athlete, don't hold back and find ways of challenging them every day.

Jumping 38" or 3' 2"

3D Med Ball for Throwing

Here is a Med Ball throwing sequence that can be used to increase throwing velocity. The idea is to create power by sequencing movements instead of isolating muscles. Make sure you repeat the throws on the opposite side.

Pushing the Limits in Jumping

At Udistrict we try to push the limits of athletes.

Here are some video's of a couple incredible athletes that trained with us, and to push the limits of their jumping height we set up a box with a couple cones on them with a stick at the top. The final height is 60" or 5' and proof is shown in the profile pic of how high it is, where they are standing next to it.

Working on full explosion here they are Clearing the 5' height with some room to spare
