Injury Prevention & Recovery Training for Cricketers

Mobility is the foundation of athletic performance. Here, athletes are going through a series of mobility exercises, like the 90/90 stretch and bird-dog, to improve movement efficiency and reduce injury risk.

Cricket involves a lot of forward-dominant movements, so training the posterior chain is vital. This session focuses on strengthening the rhomboids and lower traps to improve posture, shoulder health, and throwing power.

This exercise, a Swiss ball hamstring curl, is excellent for preventing in-season injuries. It strengthens the hamstrings through both eccentric and concentric contractions, which is key for durability.

This is what the grind looks like behind the scenes. A mix of cardio on the treadmill and core stability work with a Swiss ball, all part of a comprehensive program.

Let's train the slings. The body's fascial slings are crucial for transferring power. Here, we're using cable chops and BOSU ball exercises to improve rotational strength and stability.

Working one-on-one with an athlete on a corrective exercise. We're using a resistance band to activate her glutes and improve her movement patterns.

Teaching a group of young athletes about mobility. Here, I'm demonstrating a hip mobility drill to help them understand the importance of a proper warm-up.

The only way to do great work is to love what you do. This clip shows me working with an athlete on a Swiss ball hamstring curl, a key exercise for injury prevention.

This is a Nordic hamstring curl, one of the best exercises for eccentrically strengthening the hamstrings. This is a must-do for preventing hamstring strains in fast bowlers and batsmen.
