Patrick Mulcahy, former
Professional Soccer Player, Core Strength Resist-A-Ball and
Resistance Strength Training Certified, has teamed with Tom
Labonville CSCS owner of TS Performance Training
http://www.tsperformancetraining.com/ . Together they will
teach and train you to maximize your speed, strength,
explosiveness, and endurance in order to peak athletically for
your sport while reducing your risk of injury.
In order to better understand the
types of activities you will experience in the Speed and
Strength Training program, please watch the video.
Today's sports science tells us 1)
that conditioning is the result of training our three energy
systems and 2) that functional athletic strength is the
combination of muscle strength, nervous system activation,
elastic energy conservation, and proper mechanics.
In conditioning, most people don't
understand the physiology of energy systems. Similarly, with
functional athletic strength, today's athletes don't train all 4
aspects thus shorting their athletic potential. For this reason, it
is extremely important to both educate and provide the opportunity
to implement, under supervision, proper training strategies to help
foster injury resilient complete athletes.
Each session of the program is set up into 4 phases: 1) sessions
start with a warm-up, working on muscle temperature, joint range of
motion, and body alignment. 2) move into plyometric and
coordination training while the nervous system is in a non fatigued
state. 3) movement mechanics (knee punch, torso position, foot
strike, and hip extension) are trained. 4) strength or conditioning
or a combination of both is included.
The program is designed to improve your:
Speed / Quickness / Agility
Strength (Upper & Lower)
Balance / Core Stability
Coordination (Hand, Eye, Feet)
Power / Explosion (Lower & Upper)
Dynamic Flexibility
The following performance
enhancement tools will be used:
Agility Ladder
Adjustable Hurdles
Medicine Ball
Bungee Cords
Power Cords
Stability Ball
Jump Rope
Resistance Bands (ankles and
waist)
GUARANTEED RESULTS! 15 out of the 16 participants
from ITN's Speed / Strength class saw documented improvements in the
