Servis Strength

Gradual return to heavy lifting after being pregnant!

Well done Angela!

Achilles and I were so proud!

Find a way to do what you love and this girl likes kicking ass (boxing video next week) and chucking iron about.

Happy birthday to Max!

His last day of being 14! In this session he squatted 4 sets of 5 repetitions at 120kg

Then finished the strength element of the session with some singles at 130kg!

This man should be so proud of the journey he has been on after we started working together to fix some shoulder issues.

He has turned himself into a beast.

4 weeks post sugery had a small set back with some hamstring spasms mid to late last week so haven't been overly aggressive with the rehab.

From next week I will be taking easy and won't be pushing progress, as sometime around week 5 - 7 the graft is at its structural weakest.

Ok so enough of my rehabilitation has been shown to last untill next week. Here is Toby showing continuous improvement in his training.

The story continues:

Left: knee, ankle and hip stability progression form Toby's last video. I had to shorten the video, but he completes 2 pistol squats then lateral jump and landing practice on both sides.

Right: Plyometric progression; the single leg hops are half a foot futher apart and the double leg hurdles are 2 notches higher.

7 days post op. It took me 7 weeks post injury to do this

Pretty happy with progress and my knee feels stable.

This is Toby, the newest addition to the Servis Strength youth development team!

He has an incredible base level of athleticism, so has progressed quickly.

Plyometric progression 6

Great work Toby!

In 2 weeks the team will be out learning sprint mechanics, video to follow.

Some sled work from Kiah.

Great news from Tyrone, the monster up in Scotland! He is killing his training, playing like an absolute animal and loving life.

It was a pleasure to be a small part of his journey.

Fantastic work mate, follow your dream

Working on the basics: Hip, Knee and ankle stabilisation after lateral motion.

The basics of prehabilitation work in young rugby players and athletes that need large amounts of lateral force to change direction.

As an S&C coach it is our duty to protect and bullet proof athletes from soft and conective tissue injuries.
