Good Video on Complexes

One of my mentors, Coach Robert Dos Remedios, recently created this video of his soccer players. In it, the athletes are demonstrating "complexes," where a traditional strength movement is followed by a power movement involving a similar muscle group/movement pattern. A couple examples of complex training could include the following:
  • Push-ups followed by Linear Med. Ball throws
  • Squats followed by Squat Jumps
  • Chin-ups followed by Med Ball Slams
Complexes are both challenging and fun. Give them a try.
