YESS Training would like to congratulate Shannon C. of Barnegat High School for her "crushing" win over Manchester High.
Shannon aka "Armadillo" (an Armadillo is a burrowing mammal who's body is covered in hard plates) has proven that she is not afraid to get dirty on the field and there's nothing soft about her game! Pitching only five innings (mercy rule), Shannon let up only one run, but what's most impressive was her offense with 1 single, 1 double, 2 RBIs, with 2 stolen bases scoring twice!
Hmm. I wonder what kind of training helped prepare Armadillo for such an impressive outing? Were not going to take all the credit. What I can tell you is for a solid four months Shannon was in the gym sacrificing in order to prepare herself for High-School Softball. She obviously did a great job because she is a freshman starting on Junior Varsity (Yes a freshman)!!
Check out one of Shannon's lower body workouts:
- Dynamic Barbell Box Squats 8sets of 2 reps at 60%
- Dumb Bell Step-ups 3sets of 12 reps
- Reverse Hypers 4 sets of 12 reps
- Grips Training "Captains of Crush Gripper" 3 sets of max reps
A Side Note:
Shannon did not make it on this site just because of her outstanding performance on the field. It was mostly because of her performance off the field. When I wrote "Sacrifice for Reward" I meant it. She not only trained at the "Alpha Garage" for four solid months, but hardly ever missed a training session and trained her heart out every time!
Another Side Note:
There is a "No Show Tunes" rule at the Alpha Garage. This rule went into effect because of Shannon! Out of all the athletes I have ever trained, Shannon remains the only one who gets pumped up listening to Monty Python songs before training. She does make up for it when blasting Gun's N' Roses during her final sets!
