The mission at Doylestown Sports Performance is to develop athletic performance. Through discussions with the athlete a program is developed to achieve his/her goals while training to fulfill the demands of his/her sport(s) and position. The goal is not only to improve performance but to teach proper form and explain the reasoning behind each exercise/drill/training session. Each athlete’s program is designed to improve:
• Linear and lateral speed
• Agility and change-of-direction
• Power (upper body, lower body, and
rotational)
• Total-body (including core) strength
• Foot speed
• Balance
• Coordination
• Flexibility
• Injury reduction
• Confidence
