Coaches Jess, Megan, and Chelsea meet weekly at Westlake High School (as seen in the video) to take on workouts with sprint repeats (200m, 100m, 400m, etc), Fartlek miles, and bleachers.  This training has improved their speed, agility, and ability to recover quickly. 

All 20 Athletic Training classes are utilizing Hyperwear sandbells in workouts each week. The Tu/Th 6:30am class at O. Henry Middle School with Coach Megan Parsons partnered up and did a variety of kettlebell exercises while the other partner sprinted the football field with a sandbell on their shoulder.

Take a glimpse of what it looks like to use sandbells in Athletic Training by viewing the latest videos from Hyperwear. We look forward to seeing everyone next Tuesday for our monthly FIT MOB with Hyperwear.
