Note:

  1. The above program is just an example and can be adjusted based on the individual needs and goals of the athlete.

  2. It is also important to consult with a strength and conditioning coach or sports medicine professional to ensure that the program is appropriate and safe for the athlete.

  3. Make sure to increase weight or reps week over week.
