May 1, 2014 – The College of William and Mary

This is a short power workout that we did this past Thursday. The emphasis was on engaging the core while also mixing in power elements. We were heavy on the legs today.

*MB under = medballs held at 45 degrees underwater
*MB up = just below the surface of the water

MBs that are extremely buoyant and hard to keep under work best for these drills.
