Features & Benefits

Plyometric training is among the most intense types of fitness training you can participate in and it is because of this high intensity that you need to take extra care when setting up your drills and stations that there is nothing near by that can get in the way of your jumps.

Safe areas to execute plyometrics include grass or other types of game playing fields, outdoor tracks, plyo mats and gym room floor. Avoid concrete to reduce the risk of injury.

Working out with the Plyo Hurdles™ will improve your speed and neuromuscular efficiency. The stronger you become from explosive training the better you will become at vertical jumps which are useful in many sports.

POWER JUMPS:
Prepare your Plyo Hurdles at a position you can clear with some effort (32” to 40”). Give yourself ample room in between hurdles to jump and take off again, three to five feet should be sufficient. Execute the jumps using both feet at the same time.

Jump quickly through the hurdles and only high enough to get over them. Keep your toes pointing up while in the airfor quicker take off on the next jump.

More Info

When you get ready to train with the Plyo Hurdles you need to be sure you are mentally and physically ready. Plyometrics are intense and require that you be rested, injury free and ready. Be sure to do plyo drills before any other workouts like speed or agility drills, aerobic conditioning or weight lifting.

Give yourself 48 to 72 hours in between plyometric training sessions to allow your body to recover.
