Squash Stability Intermediate Training Programme

This Squash strength and conditioning training program will focus specifically on stability training systems to:

 

• DS Performance training programs are designed to run alongside a skill/sport-specific based training plan. Our programs provide sessions for 3 days of training a week, to alternate between your skill/sport-specific training sessions.

 

• Our 12-week strength and conditioning training program are broken down into 2 x 6-week cycles, with a de-loading between the two training blocks. This will allow the body to recover, prepare you for the second training phase and reduce any risk of injury.          

 

• Along with your training program this book contains a supporting guide to mobility training. This guide uses myofascial release, static stretching, and activation work to mobilize the major body parts used in training.  

 

• Designed to reduce the risk of injury and avoid bad training habits through our sport-specific training programs. We provide training programs designed by ex-team GB athletes and coaching staff that have practical and applied experience through a wide range of individual and team-based sports.      

 

• Our program has been developed to bring elite training methods to everyone, from all levels of sporting ability. Our mission is to make training programs utilized by professional athletes available to all sporting enthusiasts and performers.      

The intermediate training level is for when you have conditioned the body to train at a higher intensity, but you are still not ready for the competition phase of training. This level of programmes bridges the gap between general conditioning and competition phase of training, to achieve your optimal performance.

 

Stability training in many sports is underrated and over-looked. With improved stability means that strength, power and speed can be delivered more effectively, minimising any loss in physical performance.

 

Good stability allows a squash player to move with greater efficiency across the court, giving them stronger foundations to work from for each stroke they play. Greater stability will reduce any risk of injury, especially over-use injury, as it will benefit your alignment.

      

The stability programmes are perfect for the beginning of a training cycle, especially if you have had some time off, or are coming back from injury. The stability programmes are ideal to use alongside our strength programmes, as together they will increase your skill acquisition and prepare your body for multi-directional movement patterns in squash.
