Youth Physical Preparation
About Us
The collaborative idea of three division-1 collegiate sports performance coaches who have witnessed the misfortune of athletes over-specializing in sport without a foundation of physical preparation. While these athletes become gifted at their sport, the lack of physical qualities becomes the limiting-factor to career longevity and success.
Mission
Technical & Tactical Preparation
Specific Physical Preparedness
(SPP)
- Specific physical demands of the sport
General Physical Preparedness
(GPP)
- Foundational Movement Mastery
- Relative Body Strength
- Aerobic Work Capacity
To deliver elite-level coaching that is centered on building a holistic foundation of physical preparation for athletes. We believe in programming logically and targeting physical qualities that correlate with long-term athletic success. We do not believe in programming mindless exercises that solely makes athletes tired. Everything in the program has a purpose and athletes will be taught foundational movements that will be mastered over time.
