Well done to this group who were open to learning and trying anything that’s was thrown at them.
5 weeks included;
✅ Fitness
✅ Striking
✅ Blocking
✅ Body awareness
✅ Environment awareness
✅ Mock attacks
We are all capable of minding ourselves more than we think. 💪🏻

Resisted Plyometrics, WHY?
👇
1️⃣Increased Force Production
Adding resistance (bands, sleds, weight vests) increases the force demands of the movement.
This improves an athlete’s ability to generate higher ground reaction forces — essential for sprint speed, change of direction, and vertical jump performance.
👉 Greater force = greater performance ceiling.
⸻
2️⃣ Improved Rate of Force Development (RFD)
Resisted plyometrics challenge the neuromuscular system to produce force rapidly under load.
This enhances Rate of Force Development, which is crucial in sports where ground contact times are short (e.g., sprinting, Gaelic football, swimming starts).
The athlete learns to apply force quickly against resistance, making unloaded movements more explosive.
⸻
3️⃣ Enhanced Tendon Stiffness & Elastic Strength
Resistance increases eccentric demand, improving:
• Tendon stiffness
• Elastic energy storage
• Reactive strength
This improves stretch-shortening cycle efficiency — allowing athletes to become more reactive and resilient while reducing injury risk.

It was my pleasure to deliver a performance workshop with the U18’s women’s team
Plenty of lessons learned, cohesive communication and what can we do to elevate our performances.
Looking forward to seeing
“The Next Win” will be for the team.
