24.01.2022 Up & Coming Athlete Member Sienna taking part in yesterdays fitness testing with Global Performance Testing @globalperftest We had close to 50 young AFL, Basketball, Soccer & Netball players put through professional and sport specific testing. Of course, the information gained from standardised testing is invaluable and really allows us to understand our weaknesses and where need to improve to get where we want to be.... We are looking forward to taking these athletes through seven weeks of targeted fitness training. The aim is to see them improve their results yes, however ultimately we hope to see this improvement correlate to the field of play.

12.01.2022 We post a lot about the achievements and improvements of our @upandcomingathletes members on this page. And so we should.....success occurs due to hard work, commitment and dedication. However, sport is not purely a highlights reel. ... Setbacks happen, injuries occur and sometimes life gets in the way. This is the reality of anyone living a life of sport. This is one of our Members, Ellie, diligently completing her rehab exercises after surgery to repair a torn ACL a few months ago. Everything was on track for Ellie this year, she had podiumed at Triathlons, rowed in APS Head of the River and her first season of U19 AFLW led to selection with the representative Geelong Falcons. Unfortunately, she got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time on the footy field It has been inspiring to see Ellie commit to her comeback under the watchful eye of her @upandcomingathletes mentor, Jake Stack, and the medical team at Olympic Park @olympicparksportsmed It takes a village to keep athletes healthy and on the right track and this truely has been a collaborative effort between family, coaches and medical staff. Keep moving forward Ellie, our setbacks often lead to our greatest triumphs Were behind you all the way!

12.01.2022 Nothing like a sport specific warm up

12.01.2022 Massive congrats to Up & Coming Athletes Members Poppy Schaap and Charli Elsworth who have been selected in the Geelong Falcons AFLW representative squad. Hard work pays off!! http://www.aflbarwon.com.au//2018-geelong-falcons-girls-u/

05.01.2022 Malachais first attempt at the Nordic hamstring curl was pretty impressive. This was in our Speed and Power class at @upandcomingathletes with Head of Athlete Conditioning Bri Morgan @runninggirlpilates . You may be thinking this exercise doesnt look too speedy or explosive does it? This is because there is an important part of power class that we focus on that may be a bit left of centre and that is -- force reduction training and stabilisation-- essentially learning h...ow to stop, land and strengthen the muscles that do so. Force reduction and deceleration is a huge component in sport and can sometimes be overlooked in training. Teaching our young athletes the importance of this element of power training at a young age is crucial to their understanding of training their bodies as a whole system. Yes we will be including fast, explosive force producing movements but the ability to absorb load properly can be a key to minimising injury and enhancing athletic performance. #trainthewholesystem #powertraining #decelerationtraining #eccentric #nordiccurls #juniorathletedevelopment #athletesdevelopment #upandcomingathletes #surfcoastsport #strengthandconditioning

05.01.2022 We are SO proud of this guy, one of our scholarship winners, Jacob Welch. Jacob has spent the majority of the last 12 months recovering from and rehabbing a major injury. Doing the work to come back is often boring and repetitive. ... When your love is Basketball , things like stretching, Pilates, rollers and activation exercises can be mind numbing. Jacob, your commitment to the little things this year has seen just reward......selection in the VIC Country Squad and in contention for the VIC team again. Great stuff Jacob, what a journey

04.01.2022 SO many questions about our @upandcomingathletes 2018 Scholarships..... We will be live at 7:30pm tonight on Facebook to talk it all through. Look forward to seeing you then
