1. What are Plyometrics?
(Latin origin means “measurable increases”)
Plyometrics is a series of hops, skips, jumps and foot movements
that originated in Europe (Russia). I have personally trained
over 15,000 athletes the past five years and I guarantee you
as a parent nothing your son or daughter ever does as an athlete
will improve their foot speed, quickness, explosiveness and
vertical jump like plyometrics.
2. What are the age limits for
plyometrics?
Ages 7-40. Plyometrics under qualified teachers is highly
recommended for athletes 7 – 13. See "Don’t
wait to make the kids weight train and Plyometrics"
articles.
3. How long should my son or daughter
do plyometrics?
Plyometrics should become a year round training support
system.
4. How often should my son or daughter
do plyometrics?
Off season 2 -3 times per week. Pre-season 2 times per week.
In season 1 time per week. Please note all athletes need 48
hours rest in between each plyo workout.
5. Can an athlete plyo and then
go to practice or practice and then plyo?
Absolutely. In fact many of my soccer girls and my own son
have commented that their best practices are after they plyo
first.
6. How does Plyo City(Stationary
Facility) compare to Intense City and Fast Twitch?
Intense City (Irvine)
3 months (22 sessions) $649 + $99 per month = $950
5 months (44 sessions) $1049 + $99 per month = $1550
Yearly (92 sessions) $1800 + $99 per month = $3000
Fast Twitch (Brea/Yorba Linda)
3 months (24 sessions) $650
6 months (48 sessions) $1150
Yearly (92 sessions) $2275
PlyoCity
4 months (48 sessions) $75 + $125 per month = $575
6 months (72 sessions) $75 + $125 per month = $825
Yearly (144 sessions) $75 + $125 per month = $1575
($75 one time processing/testing fee)
As you can see, Plyo City rates are far less than either
Intense City or Fast Twitch’s rates and Plyo City offers
twice as many sessions. When you consider that our workouts
include stretching, medicine ball work and mental visualization,
Plyo City is also giving you more for each workout session!
7. Can plyometrics help prevent
injuries?
Over the past 8 years Plyo City has trained sons and daughters
of 12 orthopedic surgeons. Every single doctor has said that
the mat drills Plyo City does has a tremendous impact on developing
strength in the knee joint and thus helps prevent knee injuries
(ACL, MCL etc).
