ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT
“Making you stronger than your lifestyle”
Philosophy of Speed
Speed agility and quickness is an integral part of sport. Running faster coupled with the ability to change direction, decelerate and stop are key ingredients to excelling in sport. Each person has heard of an athlete who “didn’t make it”. Not everyone is professional grade however; with your help we can reach your genetic ceiling and maybe even realize it was higher than you thought!
Everyone who calls themselves an “athlete” has worked out at one time or another, and even some of you know how to perform exercises. Now let’s take those skills and apply them to your sport, goals, or weaknesses. To do so in a logical fashion; armed with the knowledge of exercise density, creativity, and exercise science will make your workouts more effective.
Any strength and conditioning coach can make you sore, but can they make you better? Muscle soreness is to be expected to a certain degree however, lingering issues need to be addressed prior to the next workout or that workout will lead to overuse injuries and loss of effective work. Speed agility and quickness training utilizing sport specific drills, both endurance and speed based, can improve footwork, coordination, and reduce the risk of injury.
I am currently employed by Drayer Physical Therapy Institute and we see many young athletes with injuries because of muscle imbalances, strength deficits and poor mechanics.
My 14 years of experience in the Physical Therapy Profession assist me in recognizing injuries before they develop into issues that eliminate training/competition; this coupled with my Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist distinction qualifies me to provide you and/or your team with sport specific speed work.
Let’s get faster together!!
