Well there is allot of things you can do but it all depends on what type of athlete you are. If you are lacking in a strength base concentrate on lifting heavy i.e. squaring and dead lifting heavy. If you are an athlete which lacks in explosive power you need to develop your speed i.e plyometrics and allot of sprinting and so on. It is hard to narrow it down from such little information.
