His strength program is based on a core series of movements that focus on increasing a wrestler's power and explosion on the mat. This program provides a balanced approach, working both sides of the body equally to create the balance needed to dominate continuously on the mat.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoach Calcagno shares six different series of movements (with over 40 exercises) that are the core of his program.

He utilizes a plyometric series to transition that strength and power into functional movements that readily move to the mat.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, he closes with dynamic movements for warm-ups and increased flexibility.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a great tool that gives exercises and set\/rep schemes that OSU uses, when they use them and how they vary with weights of athletes so that a coach can integrate it into their strength program and move away from the traditional \"power lifting\" programs that many schools are using.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 minutes. 2014.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Championship Productions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47402299523260,"sku":"CHMP-WRD04493","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/3832\/2364\/files\/91KF_a9SJBL.jpg?v=1788450186","url":"https:\/\/store.virventures.com\/products\/training-for-power-and-explosiveness-calcagno","provider":"Virventures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
