Tip 1
Core strength is essential to lacrosse athletes. Building a strong core through proper excise will help prevent injury on the field and allow you to train more efficiently in the gym. Kyle Hartzell’s Go Pro Workout incorporates exercises that will help you build a rock solid core. Try adding Kyle’s Modified Windshield Wipers into your training regime.

Lie on the ground with your arms extended (lockout position for bench press) holding an Olympic bar. Place 25-45 lb plate on each end, USE COLLARS. Raise your legs off the floor so the soles of your shoes are parallel to the ceiling. Attempt to keep your legs as straight as possible and rotate them side to side (while stabilizing the weight on the bar). Try two sets of 10 with a weight that you can control.

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.
