VRDL’s Kitty Decapitate doing Power Cleans at Advanced Athletes Performance
Link Below on YOU TUBE of Kitty Decaptitate Power Cleaning
Lots of VRDL Roller Derby players now training at Advanced Athletes Performance in Preston. The first stage with many of the girls was simply to do some basic screening, fitness testing and then generic squatting and deadlifting plus some core and rotational work. Warmups have involved mobility, proprioception training and low level plyos.
Some of the girls have started doing some Power work, sleds, med ball throws, hurdle jumps etc. IE Just getting the concept across of converting to power.
The next stage will be to become very specific to what players need and this could involve power training, stair jumping or even high level ergometer work to develop speed repeatability. But the base is always general conditioning.
In the pic above we see Kitty Decapitate doing a Power Clean for the second time only. She did some light front squats, some cleans, snatches then some medball granny throw complexed with hurdle jumps. Thats it!
