Open Up Sports will enhance...
Mindset
Open Up Sports is aware of the mental development needed in becoming a great athlete and leader. The attitude you approach every day with is very important, and we stress and expect a stead-fast mindset with every session. We feel that will aid us in creating a skilled, confident, humble and hard-working athlete. The athletes that go against the grain of this process usually find somewhere else to train, and we always wish them the best.
Footwork
Your feet are your facilitators towards movement. Good footwork aids with efficient movement that ultimately leads to great transitional movement! Speed is not enough. In being a great athlete, you must have great transitional movement when competing in most team sports. Being able to decelerate and change directions will not only help you in competition, but also help in preventing serious injuries.
Agility
In athletics, agility is a universal tool that can aid an athlete to move with fluidity that can, in essence, make them faster than they really are. By eliminating wasted movement through repetition of movement, this will help them in becoming an agile athlete. We also create sport specific agility programs when athletes become fundamentally sound with basic movement.
Speed Endurance
Speed is the key that opens the door to every sport. Having the ability to do it for a long period of time takes hard-work, dedication, and a strong work-ethic. This is the component that most athletes struggle with. Speed endurance will not only give you long term success on the field/court, but also help with injury prevention. We use a slow build-up approach with the speed endurance module of our program to ensure we do not discourage our athletes.
Power
The power phase in our program is reserved for our more advanced athletes. This phase of our program has a weightlifting, speed endurance, agility and footwork component. This process will change your overall athletic ability, along with enhancing your mental toughness. Basically, we will flirt with crazy from time to time.
