Flagship Athlete Development Program:
Not all High-Performance S&C Training is the same… Strength & Conditioning has matured into something very specific over the last few years. Programming should fit in with the season’s periodization as well as consider the biological and training age of the athlete. Our protocol filters athletes in and out of 3 phases.
Learn to Train: The first level of athletic conditioning is about learning how to move well. Clean accurate movement groves good neural patterning and allows Musculo-skeletal loading to be more effective. It’s not all about biological age here. If you have not gone through a phase of movement pattern development or your nervous system feels threatened by complex, high-load, high-intensity workouts you may need to spend some time improving the foundations of physical movement before moving to the next phase. Athletes coming to the end of a period of rehab and looking to return to play will spend some time doing exercises in this phase. Specificity is the key to accurate programming. he would put.
Train to Train: This is where you build your resilience and become hardy. In this phase you might be the type of athlete that does a different training session every time you train with us, but you might also be the type of athlete that spends a lot of time grooving the same patterns over and over with adjustments to load, speed, intensity and fatigue. We may apply the minimal effective dose methodology to you or if you are the type of person that thrives under maximal load then that’s what you will do. Athletes in this phase learn a lot about what makes them tick, what you limits are, what your strengths and weaknesses are and you should be able to come out of this understanding exactly what’s written down in a program, how to do all the exercises safely and effectively on your own and how to do them to the right intensity for you. There is a lot of emphases put on learning self-applied recovery techniques. You don’t always have your physio with you, so it helps to know how to use recovery techniques that work well for you.
Train to Win: Athletes in this phase will constantly visit the first 2 phases to either recover from injury or learn a new skill and its techniques. These athletes learn fast and adapt well because they understand themselves well. They know their limits, when to push those limits and when to back off. Gains come in all shapes and sizes. Often, it is about working harder or heavier, but we have found it’s definitely not all the time. Train-to-win athletes are elite-level athletes who usually have a team of people working with them so it’s important we integrate with the coach to make sure the workload fits with the overall plan. Specificity and a deeper level of attention are needed for athletes in this phase.
