This Acceleration program includes 4 daily routines as well as a list
and description of Ballistic, Plyometric, and other sport specific
acceleration routines all custom made by Kinetic Excellence Inc.
Whether you are a professional athlete or working your way toward a
goal of performing better, this program is definitely a step in the
right direction.
Acceleration power is the ability to achieve peak acceleration.
Sprinting speed and acceleration depend on the power and quickness of
muscle contractions to drive the arms and legs to the greatest stride
frequency, the shortest contact phase (least time foot on ground) when
the leg reaches the ground and the highest propulsion when the leg
pushes against the ground for a powerful drive forward. The capacity of
athletes to accelerate depends on both arm and leg force. Specific
strength training for high acceleration will benefit most team sport
athletes from wide receivers in football to wingers in rugby or
strikers in soccer and is of great benefit to basketball and baseball
players as well. As the application of force depends on, the amount of
force an athlete can apply as well as how fast they can apply it, both
the Maximum Strength program as well as the Power training program
would be a great compliment to any speed or agility routine.
Remember the saying “train smarter not harder” well at Kinetic
Excellence we advocate “training harder by training smarter”, never
compromise the intensity.
