In-Season Strength Maintenance for Baseball

Expert Discussion Strength Training
1

I have 7 weeks left in my season. I performed GPP to prepare, and have since been using Mark Verstegen’s “Core Performance” to maintain core strength. I would like a change in what I’m doing. Does anyone have a valuable program for maintaining strength and speed levels throughout a season?

Thanks,

Damn! That’s a great many games per week. What state do play in? Here in Texas high school baseball games are played only 2-3 times per week. Are those days you listed game days or do they also include practice.

Yes, that many games per week. Let me know what you can come up with.

Thanks,
