Session OVERVIEW:
This is what we have done. We select a muscle group, then super set it with a three peat process (3 times through). This method will overload the muscle group and will also provide a well rounded, functional athlete as it mimics the efforts and ever changing energy systems which is required throughout a game of polo.
Exercise 1: Create and generate strength via LOADED TRADITIONAL MOVEMENT
Exercise 2: Transition that strength into UNLOADED EXPLOSIVE EXERCISES
Exercise 3: Help promote that strength and power into MOBILITY Via functional exercises
