Drops in velo, both on the mound and off the bat, as well as injuries, can all be a result of not training in-season.

Strength is still the foundation of most athletic qualities; the best part is, it’s also the most trainable. Optimizing a young athlete’s metabolism by developing the muscular system as well as their aerobic system has been shown to improve mobility as well as the musculoskeletal system to help reduce the risk of injury as well as enhance performance during puberty.

The Youth Performance Package is an all in-inclusive package designed for youth (ages 10-15) and focuses on (a) mobility, (b) improving basic movement patterns and plyometrics and (c) building muscle mass without the use of free weights.

The Package includes the programming (2-3x per week) and the equipment necessary to perform the program, which can be downloaded after purchase (delivered via email).  Below is a summary of the various components of the training program:

  • Warm-up Routine
  • Activation Circuit
