I have news for you…
Your run of the mill gym program is not going to get you ready for your competitive season.
That free app you downloaded with a workout of the day featuring your favorite athlete is not going to help you break the starting lineup.
If you want to out perform your teammates and friends…
If you want to win a championship and bring home a state title…
If you want to be seen and recruited by some of the top college scouts in the game…
If you want to be the best of the best…
You need specialized training! You need a training program that is unique to you, to your sport and to your performance goals. Whether your goals include power, endurance, agility or something entirely different, the team at Spark Performance knows you need next level training to perform at the next level!
Here is what we know about why athletes should seek out specialized training…
Metabolic conditioning is a key performance indicator in building a training program.
Each sport requires a different level of metabolic conditioning that is unique to the sport and even the athlete’s position. A track athlete requires a different level of metabolic conditioning and therefore a different training regimen than say a baseball player. Each sport requires a specific output, therefore the input (ie: training) should also be highly specific.
Nobody wants to be injured – specialized training can help prevent non-contact injuries.
It is important to strike a balance in training. Which is why it is just as important to seek out a trainer who can help you develop a comprehensive training program that is tailored to you. How many recruiters do you think you can impress if you are stuck on the bench because of an injury?
It goes without saying (though I will say it anyway for the people in the back), sport specific training improves sport performance! If you want to get better, you need to train with someone who can help get you to the next level. Any big box gym trainer can print off a template and count your reps. Heck you can download a free app that will tell you step by step which exercises to do and how to do them. But take it from us, as a squad of former athletes, the team at Spark Performance knows that next level performance requires next level training that can only be found at a place like Spark. We don’t print off generic templates. We build individualized training programs that are specifically designed to meet your goals and achieve next level performance.
Speaking of squad goals…
Even the pro’s hire a team of pro’s!
For example, Russell Wilson has a team of professionals that he has hired to help him stay in tip top shape. Wilson knows that he can’t achieve peak performance on his own. In fact, he needs a special team around him that he has hired privately to ensure his success. Being on a pro team, he has access to some of the best in the industry for free. And even still, he chose to add to his team above and beyond to achieve elite performance.
Your body is not the only thing that will get stronger…
Want to boost your self-esteem and your mental toughness?
A specialized training program will improve your mental toughness. Training should be physically and mentally challenging so games and competitions are a walk in the park. The lessons you can learn from sport specific training will test your limits. It will give you the confidence to do things you thought you couldn’t. Which also carries over into other areas of life – what a great investment!
So, if you are an athlete, give us a call or send us an email so we can discuss your goals and create a plan for how to take your game to the next level.
And if you don’t your competition absolutely will.
