Content: Aerobic Routines
Aerobic exercises are the quickest methods for improving the athletic performance of individual athletes. Regular aerobic exercises such as athletic drills and sports practice can greatly improve your stamina while improving the amount of activity you can maintain on the field. Maximize the aerobic activity level in your sports practice by having your team run five or more laps at the beginning and end of each practice session as you deliver instructions through a megaphone. Plyometrics
Jump training or plyometrics is a technique used by coaches to encourage explosiveness. Olympic athletes from eastern Europe started using plyometrics in the 1970s. By stretching and contracting muscles through depth and drop jumping, athletes can increase their hamstring strength by 44 percent according to the American Council on Exercise. Every coach will run their player through drills specific to their sport and their position within that sport. The drills are aimed at improving skill as well as overall speed, agility and quickness. These techniques should only be taught by a qualified coach and to those in excellent physical condition. The Motivational Speech
