Athlete Development Programs

KIDS SPORT CONDITIONINGKSC

Kids Sport Conditioning will teach young athletes the foundational components of athleticism through a fun, dynamic and motivating training environment. Children between the ages of 8 and 11 are at a peak stage for nervous system development. This means that most of their body awareness, coordination, movement mechanics and balance will be developed by the age of 12 making it a critical time for youth athletes to train. The program will focus on developing movement not muscle. Balance, agility, quickness, core stability, posture, reactivity and strength will be trained through fun and challenging drills. Don’t miss this window of opportunity, join the youth movement.

ATHLETE RECOVERY AND REGENERATIONARr

5-10 minutes of stretching after your practice or game is just not enough. Experience a new freedom in your movement by releasing tension in muscles, constriction in joints and adhesions in fascia. This new program features systematic self-myofascial release techniques, Trigger Point Performance TherapyTM self massage methods and mobility. These sessions will not only help your body recover, they will increase your functional range of motion, improve muscle pliability, decrease muscle soreness and enhance your body’s flexibility. Give your body the regeneration it needs and the recovery it deserves. Learn More

Speed, agility & quicknessSAQ

Speed, agility and quickness are three of the most important physical components for athletes. The Twist SAQ program will teach you how to move more efficiently through postural correction, biomechanical analysis and movement skill patterning. Once a foundation of movement is built athletes will focus on increasing their first step quickness, deceleration, explosive speed, reactivity and multi-directional movement skills. Become a quicker, faster and more reactive athlete with Twist’s SAQ training methods.

ATHLETIC STRENGTH DEVELOPMENTASD

Get Twist Strong. The ASD program will build functional strength for greater sport performance through a neuromuscular training philosophy based on training movement, not muscle. ASD is about building athletic movement, linked-system strength, power, transitional balance, neuromuscular coordination, mind-muscle integration, and sequential muscle firing from the inside out. Coaches will identify and train up weak links in the kinetic chain, build core stability & strength, increase joint mobility & stability, and build full-body integrated strength. Age groups are 12-14 and 15+ (grouping may depend on maturation).

ENERGY SYSTEM DEVELOPMENTESD

In Youth Sports, one of the most limiting factors in performance is an athlete's cardiovascular system or energy system. Many athlete's talents and skills are never truly shown because their energy systems are not developed enough to sustain the demands of a shift or a full game. ESD will focus on building both the aerobic and anaerobic energy systems so athletes can play to their true performance potential. Athletes will increase aerobic and anaerobic capacities through multi-directional interval training, linear intervals, hill running, bike sprinting, movement skill circuits, resistance & overspeed running, and muscular endurance training.
