STRENGTH & CONDITIONING Camp

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING Camp: Periodization Training for Optimal Performance is for any young athlete 13-17 yrs of age who is looking to take their physical fitness and athletic performance to new heights. Get stronger, last longer and feel better!

There's a well known saying, "failing to plan, is planning to fail". As an athlete, this is absolutely true related to your time in the gym. The best of the best don't wing it or go "hard" all the time. Yet this is what many young athletes do. 

The best of the best know that you need to know where you want to go first and then know how you're going to get there. From there they develop training plans for Macro cycles (4-6 month), Meso cycles (2-6 weeks) and Micro cycles (daily/weekly) and apply it to both their strength as well as their conditioining. And when you layer in PERIODIZATION TRAINING (which factors in progression of through phases of endurance, base strength, hypertrophy, absolute strength, power/speed and rest), you'll dramatically improve your athletic performance, reduce the risk of over-training and have fewer training related injuries. 

In this 4 day camp designed for young athletes ages 13-17,  you will receive an Introduction to PERIODAZATION TRAINING and each day we'll address one of the elements listed above, applying it to both your strength and cardio workouts. I'll show you how to intentionally adjust reps, sets, tempo, rest and intensity and move your exercise selection from general to specific, isolated to integrated, and slow throughout the phases.

This is for YOU if you are ready to TRAIN SMARTER and BECOME BETTER as an athlete.
