Plyometrics for newbies
First off, a big thanks to Wuqiong for joining the discussion on athletic training! One of Fresh Startās goals is to get people on campus sharing ideas about fitness and finding ways to make time for healthy endeavors. He has excellent points for athletes looking to improve vertical leap, and itās a very nice supplement to what we posted on Tuesday. I strongly encourage others to share their experiences and tips either to The Tech opinion section, online comments, and/or by emailing freshstart@tech.mit.edu so that your ideas will show up in print!
