What you'll learn
Power Training Power training sessions will help develop your athletic explosive strength. You will see significant improvements in your jumping, starting, and overall power movements. The power training sessions consist of a number of progression drills that will cover plyometrics, medicine ball work, and proper Olympic lifting techniques. Our goal is not to develop bodybuilders, but to develop your fast and explosive twitch muscles SAFELY. Speed Training Speed training sessions are designed to develop your maximum speed potential. Individuals who follow the recommended training program typically see an improvement of approximately two-tenths of a second in their 40-meter dash. Increasing your straight ahead speed will not only make you faster but it will transfer to your lateral movements and overall quickness. The speed training session goal is to simply help you move faster by firing up your fast twitch muscles. Some components of the program include: *Increased Stride Length & Stride Frequency *Improved Sprint Mechanics *Improved Metabolic Factors *Improved Core Stability *Increased Body Composition Agility Training The overall goal of our Agility training sessions are to help the you apply your linear or straight ahead speed to lateral movements that are quick and safe.
