Athletes have goals of enhancing strength, power, speed, agility, quickness, reaction, and more to improve abilities in their respective sport of choice. General fitness training can involve the same movements that athletes require, but Athlete Performance Training is more specific to the demands of that particular sport. APT programs are designed in a year round fashion, built around the seasons of an athlete.
APT builds upon the foundational components of fitness with a layer of specificity. Flexibility requirements are designed to mimic the motions performed on the field. Strength and power components are comprised of total body moves that involve upright and ground activities. Speed, agility, and quickness training are designed with multi-planar moves and involve the need to react with varying situations. Endurance training is built with the required zone training demands that mimic their sport. While enhancing these foundations skilling and sport technique are also built within any APT program. It is not uncommon for an elite athlete to have various coaches working within a closed system to enhance the effectiveness of the overall program.
The most important benefit of APT is that these components are designed in an integrated fashion to create an explosive, injury resistant athlete.
