PSCL Strength & Conditioning
The PSCL Strength & Conditioning (S&C) Schedule and Price Structure is now out for Summer 2013! Scott Colby, M.A., C.S.C.S. and Instructor at McKendree University, will be back this summer as the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the PSCL, and will be facilitating the Baseball Combine as well as all S&C Activities.
PSCL’s D-SPaRT (Dynamic-Strength Power and Revolutionary Training) Program is the suggested S&C option for our PSCL Athletes. The D-SPaRT Program consists of a 6 week training cycle and is primarily based on power and power-endurance exercises within a 90 minute, S&C Coach supervised workout. It is suggested that athletes supplement D-SPaRT Workouts with a traditional weight training approach to circuit training to enhance joint stability as well as base strength. A Feet-To-Fingertip Broken Circuit Training Program and a Nutritional Packet will be provided for any and all athletes who attend D-SPaRT Workouts.
Specialized options for the Pitcher Program (with D-SPaRT Workout integration based on a starter/relief pitcher throwing rotation) and the Stronger Program (hypertrophy, strength, and power) are also available on an individual basis per athlete. Athletes who chose either the Pitcher Program or the Stronger Program will be provided with an S&C Coach Introductory Session as well as email consultation throughout the season.
