In Adult Strength and Conditioning we will develop goals and set up a fitness program to help you meet those goals. Your program will be set up to meet 5 components of physical fitness:
1. Cardiovascular Endurance
2. Muscle Strength
3. Muscle Endurance
4. Flexibility
5. Body Composition
Youth Training
To improve our athletes’ performance, as strength coaches, we make critical observations that
help shape the way we train them. Most sports are played where force needs to be applied to the ground and that athletes must master triple extension (hips, knees, and ankles). An athlete must also coordinate and utilize every muscle, tendon, ligament and joint throughout the body in a full range of motion in an explosive manner. Strength and Conditioning at Xplosion
Athletic Evaluation / Movement Screen
Mobility / Flexibility
Linear Speed (start, first step quickness, acceleration, absolute speed)
Multi-Directional Speed (footwork, change of direction, agility)
Plyometrics
Reaction training
Joint Stability / Balance / Posture
Injury Prevention / Pre-hab
Strength / Power
Conditioning (energy system development, work capacity)
Recovery / Regeneration
Core
It is important to not only have adequate strength but to achieve a balance of strength between muscle groups. Core is basically your midsection area. Core strength is very important and athletes should absolutely be working on improving this. Having a strong core allows athletes to have greated balance and control over their body's movements. When there is a lack of core strength there can be a lack of balance when performing and competitors can take advantage of this.
