Locomotive Plyometric Training on Your Own
I’ll send you a plyometric workout to perform on your own. Locomotive Plyometrics are movements like Power Skips, Gallops and Bounds that help develop overall athleticism. If you can, I’d suggest you do these drills on a grassy area outside but first and foremost be safe and comfortable!! I’ll have alternatives if you do not feel comfortable going outside.
