Athletes will train in group classes that enhance physical qualities that prepare them to play fast!
The recommendation for SAQ training is 2 weekly classes. Each class is unique and focuses on the following:
-Develop coordination, rhythm, and timing to enhance multi-directional speed (linear, curvilinear)
-Increase strength and technique to properly and efficiently decelerate and (re)accelerate.
-Improve balance and proprioception to improve body posture, positioning, and angles to create explosive movement.
All classes are coach-led and last 30-45 minutes. The difficulty of the class is adjusted based on skill level, training experience, age-appropriateness, competitive season, etc. Most drills within each class are timed and tested with our Dashr laser system to gauge progress.
It is recommended to wear appropriate footwear such as low-profile soles or cross-training shoes to prevent the foot from rolling laterally in the shoes. Please, do not wear running shoes with thick elevated soles!
This specialty program is for athletes 12+ who are coachable and have received feedback that improvement is needed in one or more areas of speed, agility, and quickness.
Working out at the gym isn't easy. But getting there shouldn't be hard. Aiga Performance is located and easily accessible from all of Newport News.
