Why Plyo?
Team practice alone is no longer enough to develop the necessary
skills to be successful in today's Junior, Senior, High or
College Sports Programs. You need to exceed what is required
from yourself to rise above the competition, and improve your
overall game. The few that are able to do this are usually
the ones who will advance to the next level.
You must take ownership of your abilities. It's your responsibility
to develop the individual skills that will take your game
to a higher level - not your coach. He has the whole team
concept to develop and evaluate how you fit into it. "Champions
are made outside of practice!"

PlyoCity Testimonials
“I highly recommend it. Our players are well
trained, well conditioned and explosive and I believe a
large part of it is due to this program.”
Albert Gasparian - Girls’ Volleyball Coach, Golden West
Community College,Huntington Beach, CA
“After using PlyoCity for one year we noticed
tremendous difference in foot speed and agility. The kids were
impressed with the workouts and responded well to the program.”
Joe Wood - Head Football Coach,
Aliso Niguel High School,
Southern Orange County, CA
"Since training with PlyoCity,
my daughter's footwork has really improved and she is kicking
the ball much harder." Hope B., parent, St. Louis, MO
“For those
dedicated to the program, there are definite results. The
program helps in so many different ways. Conditioning, foot
speed, lateral movement, and coordination all improve. I have
seen great results in my own son, who is now in the 7th grade,
but started workouts in 5th grade. He was a bit slow footed, but
really improved after his workouts with PlyoCity. If you have
players that really want to improve, I highly recommend
PlyoCity.”
Roger Holmes - Head Basketball Coach, Marina High
School, Huntington Beach, CA
"My daughter really enjoyed the program.
The only problem is she enjoyed the program so much she is a
little bummed the holiday weekend and then our family vacation
will cause her to miss a couple of sessions." Chris S., parent,
St. Louis, MO
"Coach Rangel's Plyo Program was the main reason I extended
my stay here in Southern California during the NBA lock out.
My foot speed and jumping ability, ( 5 inch increase in 2
months ) were greatly enhanced and I look forward to training
with Coach Rangel again after the upcoming NBA season. Pat Garrity - 19th pick in the NBA Draft, Notre Dame All
American, Orlando Magic"
The PlyoCity training has
been great. It was very challenging - but not overwhelming -
and the kids really seemed to have fun. They got a great
workout, but I don't think the kids felt like they were working
out. What was also impressive was that they had the younger kids
working out side-by-side with experienced high school kids. You
could easily pick up which drills were aimed at foot speed,
agility, explosiveness, jumping, ACL injury prevention, etc. It
was very impressive and it moved very quickly. " Rich Waidmann-
MC United Soccer Coach, St. Louis, MO
"My wife and I checked out the 4 or 5 best Plyo Programs
in Southern California including Intense City and Fast Twitch.
Conclusion, we now drive twice a week from Glendora, 60 miles
away, to train at PlyoCity. I have never seen a program designed
to enhance an athlete's foot speed, jumping ability and quickness
like PlyoCity. Both of my sons, Casey and Derek, currently
train at PlyoCity. Coach Rangel's ability to connect with
athletes is a rare gift. I have three sons that have received
Division 1 scholarships and I believe with PlyoCity's help,
it will be four out of four."
Von Jacobson Father of Casey and Derek Jacobson - California
High School All Time Scoring Leader, McDonalds All-American,
US Junior National Team Member, starting 2 guard Stanford
University 1# ranked team in the country, All-American First
Team, 1st round draft pick of the Phoenix Suns.
"Coach Rangel worked as hard as I did to improve my
game. As a direct result of PlyoCity, I saw my jump increase
6 inches. My quickness and conditioning improved so much that
my coaches at UOP commented that I looked like a different
athlete. Coach Rangel is one of the few coaches who really
cares about his athletes and their progress. I'd recommend
PlyoCity to any athlete. "
Clay McKnight - All CIF Guard Mater Dei High School, Starting
Guard at UOP.
“As crazy as this may sound, I saw a difference in
my daughters foot speed and quickness after one session at
PlyoCity. I myself train at PlyoCity with my daughters. I
only wish a program like this was available when I played
college and pro football.”
Vince Ferragamo - Nebraska Cornhuskers, Super Bowl Quarterback
for the Los Angeles Rams, Father of Venessa and Jenna Ferragamo.
