22.01.2022 6 WEEK CHALLENGE ANNOUNCED!

17.01.2022 Great session tonight with some hard working clients! Can't wait to see the results flooding in throughout the next few weeks! Well done!

05.01.2022 With the National, State and local winter leagues of all sport - now in the swing of things (AFL/RUGBY/SOFTBALL) there has been a large number of inquiries about strength and conditioning programs, with the main focus being on speed and agility. With this being said, I am a big believer in coaching basic motor skills such as sprinting, jumping, landing, changing direction etc to my athletes. Sprinting is a motor skill and there are 2 factors to improve an athletes speed; 1. S...tride length = relative strength & mobility 2. Stride frequency = mechanics. Focus with the athlete is improving their relative strength via squats & deadlifts whereby athletes can improve their ability to APPLY large amounts of force into the ground (newtons 3rd law) then integrate this with acceleration/technique work (ie running fast = specificity) to improve the skill of sprinting. Cues; forward lean, violent arm drive forward, PUSH into the ground, keep back shin horizontal (as much as possible) to the ground.
