Former NJ State Champs Hunting for a National Title

Former NJ State Champs & Rutgers Wrestlers, Alex Caruso and Scott Winston post workout. 

Both locations are finalizing our new gym software via WODIFY.

Stay tuned for an e mail on the following:

– How to sign in for classes

– How to renew membership for your child

– Sunday workouts during the winter sports season

– In Season Workouts / Special Membership

– Manasquan Underground Strength Gym location schedule, moving more towards referral only to get accepted as a member.

The Most successful athletes train year round.

On again, off again? Too busy?

Yes, that’s what the majority do. And of course, to be at the top, to become a champion, you must avoid doing what “everyone else” is doing.

The majority will make excuses. The are few who go against the grain become champions and make their mark in the history books.

Winter sports are around the corner.

You’re either going to be part of the “I’m too busy” or you’re going to blaze your own path as a champion and train year round.

Why do I push people to step up and do more? Because I see NO reason why anyone should aspire to be average and fit in with the norm. You have the potential to be GREAT, why not GO FOR IT!

This fired me UP!!! 26 Roselle Park Wrestlers traveled to Edison Underground Strength Gym to CRUSH a workout!!! 

Monday night at 7 PM The Edison Underground Strength Gym was on FIRE as 26 wrestlers from Roselle Park came to The Underground to train.

The gym was packed and due to the rain, we were ALL inside the tiny 1,000 sq ft Underground.

It didn’t matter.

The kids organized, listened and ATTACKED the training with intensity.

Even the Rec Wrestling team brought 6 young wrestlers in and once I got the HS team outside the rec team attacked their bodyweight training.

We’ve been working Roselle Park Wrestling for about 6 years now and we LOVE the blue collar work ethic!

Here’s a lil’ throwback from 2 years ago after I trained the boys in their weight room and then on the track!

The RP Wrestlers drove about 20 minutes to get here.

We want to see the local MANASQUAN athletes here since The Manasquan Underground is in their own backyard, most kids can ride their bikes here in 5 minutes.

Coaches – E Mail us for more info.

Parents – Sign Up HERE for your child’s trial workout.

NJ Baseball Strength: 3 Ways To Improve Bat Speed

Written by zach. Posted in Articles, Athlete Training, Edison, Manasquan, NJ Baseball Training, Training Videos, Underground Strength Camp, Workouts

nj-baseball-training-batting

Every baseball player wants to improve bat speed and reasonably so as bat Speed is one the major keys to hitting success.

Here are the 3 ways to improve bat speed

1-Improve Lower Body Strength

Lower body strength is paramount for baseball players because it is their foundation. Without a strong and powerful lower body you will not be able to generate the force needed to hit the baseball with power. Think about your legs as your horsepower. The more horsepower you have, the more potential you have to hit the ball further.

Improving lower body strength does not come from machine based training or doing exercises on BOSU balls and other gimmicks. If you want to build a solid foundation of strength in the lower body you have to lift weights.

Here Are 4 Excellent Lower Body Exercises For Baseball Players:

1. Front Squats
[youtube width=”600″ height=”400″]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xuL3_LY6SE[/youtube]
2. Deadlifts

3. Bilateral & Unilateral Loaded Glute Bridges

4. Unilateral Leg Exercises (Lunges, split squats, step-ups)

2-Improve Hip Internal Rotation

In order to improve bat speed, special strength exercises should be used by baseball players. Some of the best special strength exercises for baseball players include rotational medicine ball throws. These are a great builder of bat speed because the velocity of the exercise and the movement of the exercise closely mimic the hitting motion.

Check out this video below to see how you can improve bat speed with special strength exercises…

3-Strengthen your Core

Any finally…Every baseball players favorite term to throw around “core strength”. Improve core strength is important for baseball players because the core helps transfers the power generated from the lower body to the upper body and project onto the baseball.

If you have a weak and unstable core, there will be a leakage of power and not all the power generated from the legs will be effectively transferred. If you are doing exercises like Russian Twists, side bends and sit-ups you are missing the boat on core training.

Here Are Awesome Core Exercises For Baseball Players:

1. Pallof Press

2. Single Arm Carry

3. Hanging Knee Raise

4. Body Saws
