Example Output
6-Week Beginner Lacrosse Conditioning Plan
Weekly Structure
- Day 1: Acceleration, deceleration, lower-body strength
- Day 2: Wall-ball conditioning and shoulder care
- Day 3: Tempo runs and mobility
- Day 4: Change-of-direction drills and core stability
Sample Day: Change of Direction
1. Dynamic warm-up: 8 minutes
2. Deceleration practice: 4 x 10 yards, walk back recovery
3. 5-10-5 shuttle: 5 reps at 70-80% effort
4. Stick carry intervals: 8 x 20 seconds on, 60 seconds off
5. Strength circuit: split squat, lateral lunge, band row, dead bug
6. Shoulder care: band external rotations and scapular wall slides
Progression Rule
Increase speed before volume. If cutting quality drops, stop the drill rather than adding more reps.
Tips for Best Results
- 💡Include position and season timing because midfield conditioning differs from goalie or defense needs.
- 💡Ask for deceleration drills, not only sprint drills, since many field-sport injuries happen while stopping or cutting.
- 💡Keep beginner intensity below max effort until movement quality is consistent.
