1. What are Plyometrics?

(Latin origin means “measurable increases”) Plyometrics is a series of hops, skips, jumps and foot movements that originated in Europe (Russia). I have personally trained over 15,000 athletes the past five years and I guarantee you as a parent nothing your son or daughter ever does as an athlete will improve their foot speed, quickness, explosiveness and vertical jump like plyometrics.

2. What are the age limits for plyometrics?

Ages 7-40. Plyometrics under qualified teachers is highly recommended for athletics 7 – 13. See "Don’t wait to make the kids weight train and Plyometrics" articles.

3. How long should my son or daughter do plyometrics?

Plyometrics should become a year round training support system.

4. How often should my son or daughter do plyometrics?

Off season 2 -3 times per week. Pre-season 2 times per week. In season 1 time per week. Please note all athletes need 48 hours rest in between each plyo workout.

5. Can an athlete plyo and then go to practice or practice and then plyo?

Absolutely. In fact many of my soccer girls and my own son have commented that their best practices are after they plyo first.

6. How does Plyo City(Stationary Facility) compare to Intense City and Fast Twitch?

Intense City (Irvine)
3 months (22 sessions) $649 + $99 per month = $950
5 months (44 sessions) $1049 + $99 per month = $1550
Yearly (92 sessions) $1800 + $99 per month = $3000

Fast Twitch (Brea/Yorba Linda)
3 months (24 sessions) $650
6 months (48 sessions) $1150
Yearly (92 sessions) $2275

PlyoCity
4 months (48 sessions) $75 + $125 per month = $575
6 months (72 sessions) $75 + $125 per month = $825
Yearly (144 sessions) $75 + $125 per month = $1575
($75 one time processing/testing fee)

As you can see, Plyo City rates are far less than either Intense City or Fast Twitch’s rates and Plyo City offers twice as many sessions. When you consider that our workouts include stretching, medicine ball work and mental visualization, Plyo City is also giving you more for each workout session!
