Strength and Conditioning Workshop at Singapore Polytechnic

A 2 hour session of Strength and Conditioning was conducted in Singapore Polytechnic on the 21st June 2010. Approximately 20 athletes from the Track and Field team attended the workshop. They were given a talk on mental skills by Mr Hansen Bey from Vitage Pte Ltd and followed by the S&C workshop by me. The equipment were provided by Vitage, Activo.

The Workshop covered a series of total body weight exercises and increased intensity of exercises with the help of equipment like the medicine balls, short hurdles and plyometrics boxes. It was interesting to see athletes of different event groups trying the exercises. Those exercises were done progressively and were designed to help them have proper technique of executing the exercises. The different variation of exercises allowed the athletes to have more choices to choose from when working on specific major muscle group.
