The Golden Eagle baseball team strives to play at its peak level each game during the season. To do that, much preparation,
hard work and dedication is needed, to attain
the high performance that is associated with
Southern Miss Baseball each year. Physical
preparation and conditioning is the foundation to that success. Each player understands
that offseason work is the stepping stone to
the next season, and without hard work, dedication and many hours of training, becoming
a champion is impossible.
The Southern Miss Strength and
Conditioning Program has two main goals –
helping athletes to enhance their individual
performance potential and aiding in the prevention of injuries through training.
The athletes receive a specialized workout that concentrates on improving their
performance levels.
The program has been enhanced with the
recent addition of the strength and conditioning facility.
Within the athletic center, student-athletes enjoy the benefits of a spacious, state-of-the-art workout area.
Spacious floor area with 4,300 square
feet of workable space, more than doubling
the size of the previous weight room.
A maximum of 48 athletes can be safely
trained in the workout area.
The workout area features equipment from
some of the leading manufacturers of training equipment in the nation, including Power
Lift, Hammer Strength and Life Fitness.
There are 12 training platforms and 12
racks, as well as six “jammer” machines.
There are also a number of workout
machines that target each of the major muscle groups in the body, along with dumbbells and cardiovascular equipment.
