I think this is a great video! I am a tennis coach and I'm always looking towards other sports for ideas. Core helps the overall athlete even if it is basic, it's what todays athletes lack and desperately need! Keep up the great work!

Thank you for the video. I had trouble remembering all the exercises I used to do in college.

A wall sit is simply sitting with your back against a wall and nothing under your butt. Sitting against a wall as though you were in a chair.
It requires you to maintain a static contraction with your quads, and some of your core. IMO only useful if you will be in that (seated) position for an extended period as part of your sport. Static strength has little carryover.
Maybe good for MMA/Judo/BJJ... but I can think of about 100 better ways to spend 41 min...

good but, how dull, can we go? if you are a good swimmer you just go on coke, entefemine, abfemine, speed etcetc.... but if you are blessed with a super body you just swim :)

We have a series - start here...

Per day...? We do dryland 2 or maybe 3 times per week. If you are doing more often, you need to correlate to your athletic performance/sport practice results.
Most of our athletes can achieve our athletic standards within 1 year doing dryland on average 2 times per week. This correlates to improved performance in the water.
