Off-Season Workouts for All Athletes
The HGCS Athletic Department is offering off-season conditioning workouts with Coach Pondo for ALL athletes grades 6th-12th not involved in a sport in the current season.
Coach Pondo has been doing these workouts for the last ten years and is BFS certified. Workouts will start Wednesday, January 3, 2018 and will be held Monday through Thursday each week in the field house after school until 5:00pm. The program Coach Pondo follows is the nationally recognized "Bigger, Faster, Stronger (BFS)" program, which is used by most high schools and small colleges/universities in the country. It is a great program for ALL athletes in all sports. Athletes must have a current physical on file with the Athletic Trainer in order to participate.
The off-season is the time for you to improve as an individual. It is our hope that all will take advantage of this program. This program is free of charge, convenient, and it works! Please contact Coach Pondo (mikepondo@hgchristian.org) with any concerns or questions. Also, please review Google Doc in the following link for additional information and instructions:
