The Strength Manual is a plyometrics and lifting guide for players ages 12 to 18, organized by training age rather than birthday. Athletes earn load by passing five movement standards before adding weight. Then they follow plyometric and lifting progressions, a 12-week off-season program and in-season maintenance. It includes testing and a log, a short recovery section, and clear safety notes: it's training guidance, not medical advice, and barbell lifts should be coached in person.
