When an athlete joins our program, we will test multiple athletic qualities like their vertical jump, broad jump, strength maxes, endurance, and more. We will then lay out a program to improve those qualities in 6 weeks.

Despite the old rhetoric of lifting weights stunting growth, this has never actually been proven. In fact, lifting weights HAS been proven to improve the growth of adolescents by improving bone density and contribute to healthy physical development.
Many parents worry that lifting weights will make their child athlete slower, but when done correctly, strength training can actually improve speed and agility. Building strength helps athletes generate more force, which translates to better explosive power, faster starts, and increased overall athletic performance.
Strength training also enhances muscle coordination and reduces the risk of injury, allowing athletes to train harder and perform better in their sport. With a program tailored to their specific needs, lifting weights can be a key component of improving speed and agility in young athletes.
If your child is involved in sports and has a foundation of basic movement skills, they are likely ready for strength training. It's important to ensure they are motivated, able to follow instructions, and have no existing injuries that could be aggravated by training.
