STRIKE Training Clinic

Strength Training with Rapid Intense Kinetic Exercise

Cooperstown Cages STRIKE Training Clinic 1We believe our biggest asset, which sets us apart from all of the other baseball clubs, is our STRIKE Training Clinic (Strength Training with Rapid Intense Kinetic Exercise).  We have had 100s of college athletes, MiLB and MLB players come from our STRIKE program.

STRIKE is a program created by Cooperstown Cages to help players individually learn how to improve their game by learning:

  1. Strength / Weight Training
  2. Speed & Agility
  3. Hitting with the HitTrax Machine, a market leading technology to capture metrics for baseball training with an unmatched player experience delivered through authentic visuals and instantaneous response time giving players new insights on movements.  This a very high tech system that creates all kinds of data from exit velocity, launch angle, arm speed, mechanical video, and catching pop times as well as release points and points of contact.  The player gets to see flight of the ball on every swing.  This is a great system for instant feedback.  Click here for more information HitTrax website
  4. Long toss
  5. Fielding
  6. Arm / Muscle Care & Maintenance
  7. Yoga/Stretching
  8. Nutrition
  9. Self Drive
  10. Team building

Every winter and summer we run a 10 week program where the students go through a four station, two hour workout (each segment is 30 minutes) broken down as follows:

  1. Weight / Strength training
  2. Speed and Agility training
  3. Arm care / Yoga / Stretching
  4. Hitting / Throwing / Fielding / HITTRAX

We use a PREHAB approach.   PREHAB is Pre-Emptive Rehabilitation that is all about injury PREVENTION – aiming to promote mobility, improve alertness and response times, and maximize stability.
Cooperstown Cages STRIKE Training Clinic 2The basics of sports nutrition and supplementation are shared with each athlete in order to educate and improve their overall health and athleticism. Each student is monitored from the first day of class to the last day of class, with the emphasis being on muscle growth, fat loss, and velocity.  We chart each players test results throughout the program so each player can see their progress from beginning to end.  We offer Protein Smoothies after your workout because we know the importance of protein to repair and rebuild muscle tissue.
Cooperstown Cages STRIKE Training Clinic 3We believe our STRIKE program is second to none and we encourage all of our athletes to participate in this program. The STRIKE program is going to help your athlete get to the next level in baseball which is college and why we train our players the way we do by developing physical abilities and mental approach.   STRIKE allows our upper level coaches to see and help develop each player on a daily basis for 10 weeks.
