If anyone were to ever compare English soccer
to the NFL, then the
Chelsea Football Club would have to be their
Dallas Cowboys. English champions for 2010, Chelsea FC has a storied history
and a fanatical following. To help them continue their winning
tradition, club trainers have asked
Aquatic Therapy University to come
show how water can keep their players in winning form.
"We run our footballers in a
HydroWorx 2000 and ATU's
Aquatic Training Options for the Collegiate, Professional & Elite Athleteoffers the perfect curriculum for us," said Dr. Bryan English,
Chelsea's Medical Director. "" If we can learn how to better integrate
shallow water plyometrics, vertical acceleration training and
cardiovascular exercises into our pool regimen, we will be unstoppable
next season."
Collegiate track coach and owner of
AQx Sports,
Dr. Garry Killgore, is an expert in water-based training
and will be instructing. His runners are in the pool daily, whether
healthy or injured. And for good reason; not only do his teams win
championships but they also have a
stress fracture rate of less than 1%
compared to the national average of 14%.
