ELITE SKILL DEVELOPMENT

The process through which the body learns movement patterns and then is able to retain and perform the same movement over and over. Some refer to it as muscle memory developed through repetition drills applicable to the sport being performed.

ELITE STRENGTH: BASE/BUILD/BATTLE

Year round training program based on our Base/Build/Battle periodization method. BASE- training phase focused on recovery and maintenance.BUILD- training phase designed to prepare you for competition. BATTLE- training phase formed to optimize competition. With progressions for bodyweight, resistance band, and weighted exercises.

ELITE MOBILITY/FLEXIBILITY

Optimizing joint mobility is critical for peak performance. FOAM ROLLING- exercises used to release the fascia in the muscles. DYNAMIC WARMUP- taking muscles through an active stretch to increase joint range of motion. STATIC STRETCHES- exercises used to increase flexibility or range of motion around a given joint by lengthening the muscles associated with the joint.

ELITE JUMPING/EXPLOSIVE

The ability of muscles to exert the maximal effort and force in the shortest amount of time. EXPLOSIVE STRENGTH- exercises involving weights utilized to exert maximal force in minimal time. PLYOMETRICS- explosive exercises involving jumping that increase speed, quickness, and power.

ELITE SPEED/AGILITY

Focus is on Acceleration, Deceleration, Change of Direction, and Velocity. SPEED- an athlete's ability to move through specified distance in the fastest amount of time. AGILITY- an athlete’s ability to execute proper sport movement at the optimal pace with the ability to maximize change of direction.

FAQs

Is this only for basketball players?

Yes, our Elite Athlete Performance and Elite Basketball teams are primarily for basketball players. For athletes in other sports, check out our Elite Strength team which includes strength, mobility/flexibility, speed/agility, and jumping/explosive.

What equipment do I need?

Each program has different equipment needs. If you don't have access to the specified equipment, each exercise can be done with just body weight.

Should I still do my workouts on game day?

On game days focus on mobility, light skill work, and if necessary, light banded or body weight strength work. Avoid heavy lifting or exercises that deplete your energy levels.

What age group are these programs for?

These programs can be done at any age level. Strength workouts should be adapted according to age and ability, starting with bodyweight and progressing to resistance bands and weights.

Can these programs be customized to my schedule?

Yes, for customization and pricing email zacsel@eliteathleteperformance.com
