Much of what we programme to make athletes faster, reactive, elastic, agile also builds and maintains the same properties as we age.

⚡ Want to help your athlete get faster?
Single-Leg Pogo Hops improve:
✅ Speed
✅ Balance
✅ Explosiveness
✅ Coordination
The goal: spend less time on the ground and more time moving.
3 sets of 15-20 hops per leg before training.
Train smart. Get faster. ⚡
#SpeedTraining
Progress your strength, mobility and utility in end of range positions.
The process of improving movement quality in difficult positions enables us to move more freely, remain agile and functional as we age. Painful conditions may improve.

We really don't need much space, time or equipment to remain agile as we age. Just the will.
At your own level, hop and pop around in different planes, at angles. Be dynamic.
The older you will move younger 🤸

This is a Monday morning Slow Flow with a body that feels about 78 not 58
ROM is reduced, there's discomfort. It's filmed in one go, not socials smooth, it's what I can do atm.
But we keep moving. We feel better and move better for it. Motion is indeed lotion.

Feeling the best I ever had in this skinbag...
right about the time I'm supposed to be whinging and complaining about all the pains of old age!
Skater jumps develop explosive lateral power, balance, coordination, agility and stability. They strengthen your legs, glutes, hips and trunk.
The single-leg, controlled eccentric landing and loading improves neuromuscular motor control and reduces the risk of injuries and falls as we age.
Simple and quick to perform, they come in different flavours and levels of difficulty, from easier steppers to plyometrics that have hops and dynamic max-distance returns

Slow Flow 🐌
The focus here is stability, using (often small) muscles that support joints and maintain posture by controlling motion and maintaining structural integrity.
True mobility requires transition from position to position in different planes
#AGEility
I felt a full 58 year's old this morning but a quick agility and mobility mix later and I feel 35ish again
