Training the Best (AUDIO)

JP Sportman. Jordan Canzeri. These athletes, among several others, have helped put the Capital Region on the map in the last few years.

Sportman, the LaSalle graduate who has torn through the Oakland Athletics minor league system since being drafted in 2014, and Canzeri, the Troy grad who helped the Iowa Hawkeyes get to the Rose Bowl this year, both have one thing in common.

They have both trained with Leo Corvino at Corvino Performance. Corvino's place isn't just your average gym, filled with barbells and bench press sessions. Rather, he's focusing on quick, plyometric movements to make athletes more explosive.

Corvino joined us today to talk about how he's helped take these athletes to top of their games, what training programs he has available for all athletes, and how strength training has evolved recently. Furthermore, he told us how he trains an older athlete vs. a younger athlete.
