The athletes programs vary according to specific needs, and weight training sessions may last anywhere from a half hour to an hour and a half. Plyos, sprint training, agility drills and nutrition are also addressed. In-season training offers three training periods to choose from: morning, afternoon and evening. Usually only the players who know they are not playing that day will train right before a game; however, it s not uncommon for players to train immediately after a game.<br><br>The Pro Challenge<br><br>Alejo stresses that training at the pro level is very different than college ball.  In college you re accountable for your guys lifting or not lifting, he says.  In the pros, the players are accountable for themselves it affects their paycheck directly. But that doesn t mean you re baby-sitting or telling the guys,  Come on, come on. You have to work out, please, at least not in our organization. We believe in letting them sink or swim, and it works out pretty well. Everyone is treated like an adult, like a pro. <br><br>The Athletics weight room is a serious place to train, but also a good place.  Let sd to take advantage of two processes: 1) the reflex increase in muscle tension caused by the sudden impact stimulus, and 2) the release of elastic energy stored in the tendons and muscles developed during the eccentric phase energy that can be refocused to help an athlete jump higher and farther and run faster. As illustated in Figure 1, a delay as long as .25 seconds would prevent the athlete from being able to use that energy, and the activity would have to be regarded as low- or medium-level plyometrics. Says Siff,  A useful visualization of shock training is to imagine that the surface being touched by the hands or feet during the plyometric contact phase is red hot, so that any prolonged contact would be dangerous. Verkhoshansky s research has revealed that shock training is the most effective type of plyometrics. In one 12-week study, Verkhoshansky divied track and field athletes into two groups. The first group performed 1472 low-and medium-level plyometric activities, including squats. The other group performed 475 jumps using the shock training method. Although the shock training group performed a third less work, these athletes showed greater improvement in reactive ability than the group using traditional methods.<br>Again, this is why you should regard weight training (including the Olympic lifts) and most forms of commonly used plyometrics as valuable  readiness activities for shock training. <br><br>Shock training is a powerful tool for athletic training, but because it places such high levels of tension on the muscles and stress on the nervous system, it must be approached with caution. This entails first developner you can establish the proper motor patterns in lifting the better. The toughest athletes to teach are the kids who are maybe 16 to 18 and have done a lot of bodybuilding exercises it gets very frustratng for them. I think that especially for a kid who s pretty bright and has an appropriate attention span, the younger you can get them started the better.<br><br>BFS: You were one of the firstcoaches to train athletes twice a day. Did you encounter criticism from other weightlifting coaches for training that frequently?<br><br>Schnorf: Certainly. The accepted practice was generally to tr
