Baseball - running and agility
Running is generally thought of as a natural thing with speed being mostly determined by effort but it really requires much more than that. Running speed requires excellent running technique and optimum training of the
muscles necessary to maintain that technique even if tired. Many people have never been told that they should work on their running form in order to get faster. Well, we are telling you now. And, it helps to also train all the muscles necessary to run with good form. Wouldn't it be nice if every member of the team were fast enough to be a base stealing threat? Check out our running form video that talks about running form and how PowerCranks can help. Further, agilit
y requires excellent core mechanics and good independent leg control. PowerCranks can help with this also. PowerCranks can be used to develop your core strength, coordination and running mechanics more efficiently and better than any other training method. 10-20 minutes 2-3 times a week (alternating between very high cadence leg speed workouts and high cadence power workouts drills and adding in some one leg forward, one leg backwards drill) is probably all that is necessary for most people for this baseball purpose. If you want to increase your speed and agility in order to make more close plays you should consider adding PowerCranks to your trainng regimen.
One more thing. If one is injured PowerCranks is a great way of facilitating full rehabilitation and maintaining great run speed during the rehabilitation process.
