ON SEASON WORKOUTS / FORWARDS

Week 3 · Upper Strength & Release Speed

A rotational throw to keep the release sharp, balanced pressing and pulling at maintenance volume, and the shoulder and neck work that carries you to April. Week 3 of 4 — a little heavier, still low volume. Nothing that leaves you sore on game day.
