Six Dimensions of Training

Over the years, we have strived to develop a complete and comprehensive philosophy on how to develop elite performance in youth athletes.  Through many years of trial and error, as well as research,  we have landed on a some foundational concepts.  The six concepts or dimensions of training guide each decision we make, every day.

The 6 Dimensions are as follows:
1.  Training: The ability to develop all aspects of the athlete based on the individual and their sport.
2.  Sports Medicine: The understanding of current injuries, potential injuries, and how to develop programs that account for both areas.
3.  Sport Psychology: We attempt to teach our athletes “How To Think,” rather than “Just Do It” because that is what we are doing.
4.  Sport Nutrition
5.  Recovery
6.  Technology: Use of external devices to enhance the training effect. i.e. use of bands to mobilize and stretch on your own.

Then test the results, train, and test the results again.  We track performance with the following companies

1.  Spine and Sports Institute’s Athlete Functional Testing:  We document current strengths and weaknesses within each athlete and prescribe the training to match your specific situation.
2.  Nike Sparq Ratings: Allows you to see how you stack up with athletes within your team, as well as, all over the nation.
