We’re excited to include this training at the beginning of every practice. This is the exact program that Karch Kiraly, Misty May, Kerri Walsh and Mike Lambert use every week to increase their agility, stamina, and jump. Misty May on PlyoCity: “Ever since starting the plyometric workouts, I have felt more energized and have shed some weight. I now feel confident when playing in long matches that I can out last the opponent and still feel fresh.” P.O. Box 465 Westfield, NJ 07091.
