Leg Circuit

Here is an example of a leg circuit that we will do late August/early September with our team.  I learned about the leg circuit years ago from Vern Gambetta and Mike Boyle. It is still a great tool for us today.  I really like it because it really focuses on developing leg power, strength, and endurance.  It serves as a good transition from our conventional strength and power work to more circuit based work. 

What I also like about the leg circuit is that it is a great tool for developing power, strength, and endurance for youth players.  When I begin working with a youth team or an individual, we will always start with the leg circuit.  I am always coaching proper form and technique with each aspect of the circuit. 

When we have the ability to perform the leg circuit properly with body weight, we will then begin to add resistance.  We will progress to a weight vest or dumbbells and then progress to a bar with added weight as necessary.
