GTC Run - Introduction to Plyometrics 15.03.21
A one-off session to introduce plyometric work to your training programme. Ideally this session should be completed close to a set of steps or a low wall or kerb. A park with a short circuit, or out and back stretch is all that’s required for the run bit.
