Immediate Improvement
Athletes are the most moldable when they are young. Taking advantage of this opportunity and focusing on speed, agility, mobility and strength with youth athletes can have a huge impact on their success down the road. Our program focuses on the optimal movement patterns with speed and agility along with the correct weight lifting regimen so athletes can have a fun time now and success later on.

Foundational
The tallest buildings have the strongest foundations. Same thing applies to athletes who you see on TV. Everyone has a starting spot and by focusing on stability, mobility, strength and correct movement patterns with speed and agility gives athletes the best foundation for a tall and bright future.

Fun!
Kids and kids and we understand while wanting to get faster, stronger and better they also need to have fun. This program provides a lot of competitive features that youth athletes find fun and engaging. As a plus, getting a group of friends to do this with you is also a great way to keep it fun and affordable.

Affordable
Our program is a monthly program that allows the athlete to train along a scheduled calendar they progresses every week. Comparatively this is a very affordable way to go whereas finding a personal trainer can cost you hundreds a month for training.

FAQs
What age group is this program designed for?
Youth Athletes all the way from 12 years old to high school aged kids are the target for this. This is because as kids grow and develop they do that at a different rate than their peers, and the focus is getting a good foundation for athletes so they can have an immediate impact on their game now.
Does the child need to play the sport in order to benefit from this?
The child does not need to play a sport in order to benefit. Many of our athletes do not play in super competitive leagues and still see benefits. Our program provides the blue prints to a healthy and happy fitness life as well as for competitive athletes. Anyone can be fast and strong.
How will I see and track my progress?
Within your program, you will be able to track progress over time as you complete this program. What we recommend is tracking the weights you lift and the time you run sprints so you can have a good understanding of your progress over time.
Is the coach certified to train youth athletes?
Yes! Roy Palmer has a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) from St. Thomas University and has done youth training for the past 5 years, both with Training HAUS and In-Tension Training.
What Program Should I Do Next?
The next program to be implemented would be one of the Foundational Programs. This is because our youth athletes get more acclimated to the weight room. It is essential to then place them in a program that focuses on building a strong foundation before moving on to more advanced programs.
Why Is This Program So Inexpensive?
We believe the training should be affordable to all athletes who want to better themselves.
