Xplosive Edge Strength Training Schedule |
|
|
Schedule updated 2-5-12.
Just a note, if teams have practices on back to back nights, we
cant have XE on back to back nights as it is detrimental to the
athlete as they need more recovery than 24 hours. You may have to
make an extra trip up to the courts for XE which is the case every
once in a while.
Due to the amount of teams sometimes practicing from 7:30-9:30, some teams will go from approximately 6:00-6:45pm as to keep a good coach-to-athlete ratio. We will keep this on a rotational basis so teams dont have this situation every week. Athletes that have XE at 6:00pm can go upstairs after XE to do homework as the courts management is allowing us to use the upstairs study hall for this purpose. Thanks
Gibbie

Xplosive Edge and Premier Volleyball |
|
|
|
 
|
|
Designed specifically for Premier Volleyball athletes since 2005, the Xplosive Edge has teamed up with Premier to create the superior power athlete. Trained on site at our "Courts" satellite facility, premier athletes can train immediately before or after practice with X-edge. The Xplosive Edge satellite facility at The Courts is the Midwest's premier training facility for volleyball athletes. Equipped with Power Lift and Hammer Strength equipment, the courts satellite facility is nicer than most of the universities in the nation.
Emphasis is put on increasing strength, balance, agility, and range of motion, all while developing more power. These Premier Volleyball athletes are increasing their vertical jumps while at the same time learning how to jump and land on the ground as well as accelerate and decelerate. Plyometrics are included in our training regimen only when the athlete has become strong enough to control their bodies in space.
The courts training facility is exclusively for the use of the Xplosive Edge in its training of Premier Volleyball. Premier Volleyball is one of the nations best volleyball clubs and is on the rise. Since the inception of Xplosive Edge working with Premier Volleyball, Premier has increased its winning percentage by over 66% all while decreasing the injury rate by over 88%. This last year Premier Volleyball sent 8 teams to the USA volleyball championships!
Premier athletes are trained twice a week (45 min. sessions) right before or after their practice. Each athlete is pre and post performance tested to see their own individual performance index score created by Boyd Epley of Epic Athletic Performance.

The Developing Edge (8-13yr. Olds)
Designed for athletes ages 8-13, the Developing Edge introduces and teaches younger athletes proper running, jumping, and resistance training technique, as well as hand-eye coordination, acceleration, and deceleration. This is accomplished through a variety of speed and agility drills on the field, and strength and explosive movements in the weighted areas with very light and minimal amounts of weight.
With all emphasis on form and technique, and not focusing on heavy weights, the Xplosive Edge staff will help the developing athlete acquire proper neuromuscular recruitment patterns which will lead to an overall decrease in injury and improvement in performance.
Each Developing Edge camp is 4 weeks long. The campers come in and train 2x per week for 1 hour sessions. The summer training hours are Monday 10:30-11:30am & 6:30-7:30pm, Wednesday 5:30-6:30pm, Thursday 10:30-11:30am, and Friday 6:30-7:30pm. The athletes can select the 2 sessions during the week that work best. We also offer the Developing Edge in 6 and 12 month packages in which the price is significantly reduced and also pricing for athletes that want to continue training monthly up to next club volleyball season. Most of the kids that sign up and complete one 4 week camp love it and resign up for the monthly program. See the registration form attached or click on the link.

Premier, Xplosive Edge, Hruska Clinic Partnership!!!! |
|
|
August 25th, 2009
Through partnerships with the Hruska Clinic and Xplosive Edge, Premier Volleyball continues to provide the most well rounded club volleyball experience for young athletes. We believe these partnerships are essential for the growth of Premier Volleyball because they help ensure the physical health of our athletes.
The Xplosive Edge is a strength and conditioning company known for its cutting edge research and technology in the field of maximizing athletic performance. With the integration of biomechanics, the Xplosive Edge will remain years ahead of the competition. The Xplosive Edge is a results driven company that places a major emphasis on decreasing injuries while creating a faster and stronger athlete.
The Hruska Clinic offers a unique approach to physical therapy called Postural Restoration. This approach addresses the underlying faulty movement patterns or mechanics that are directly influencing pain symptoms. Specific exercises are instructed to restore proper alignment and movement strategies. Exercises progress as strength allows, eventually including very dynamic activity, so re-training is similar to the athlete's sport demands.
Premier Volleyball is excited to offer these partnerships to our athletes, who will benefit by becoming more explosive volleyball players while reducing the likelihood of injuries.

Xplosive Edge Strength Training |
|
|
October 31, 2007
We
will be recommending everyone in our club to get involved in the
Xplosive Edge Program for the complete development and care of their
children. Part of the Xplosive Edge program is
the pre-testing criteria. Whether the athletes decide
to participate or not we want every player to get tested.
They test for vertical jump, 10 yard and 40 yard dash times, pro-agility
drill time and body fat. They have reduced their prices for Premier
over 70% and have quipment at The Courts for on-site training.
Xplosive Edge plans to have one coach there every day and two on days
required, to maintain a ten to one ratio per session.
The testing will be held at Xplosive Edge (144th and
Giles). Testing times will be announced
at the tryouts. Players selected to play for Premier
will be asked to attend one session. There is no
extra charge for the testing.
Payment plans for the Xplosive Edge program will
be available through Xplosive Edge. The training will be scheduled
twice per week for 30 minute sessions. The players will also have
access to the interactive video training through a member password.
This training is not mandatory. It is a great opportunity
for very little cost to get additional coaching from experts on
injury prevention and strength training with the leading program
in the country. If players and parents are serious about their child's
athletics, they will jump on this opportunity. Xplosive
Edge has brought the training facilities to us! They have
equipment installed at The Courts. This allows
us to coordinate the training sessions with practices. This is a
"Division I -quality" strength program for
anyone that wants their child to develop safely, under the supervision
of expert strength coaches.
