Step 1: Comprehensive Performance Assessment
✅ Functional Movement Screen (FMS) – Assesses movement quality, mobility restrictions, and asymmetries that impact performance.
✅ Functional Capacity Screen (FCS) – Evaluates strength, endurance, and neuromuscular control for optimal athletic performance.
✅ Y Balance Test – Identifies stability deficits and lower-body asymmetries to reduce injury risk.
✅ Hand-Held Dynamometry for Strength Testing – Measures muscle strength, force output, and imbalances with objective data.
✅ Mobility & Flexibility Assessment – Evaluates joint range of motion, muscle tightness, and movement efficiency.
Step 2: Movement Optimization – Mobility, Motor Control & Postural Alignment
✅ Mobility Restoration – Improve joint range of motion, tissue extensibility, and movement efficiency with targeted techniques like manual therapy, active mobility drills, and PNF stretching.
✅ Motor Control Training – Enhance neuromuscular coordination and movement sequencing to improve strength, balance, and stability in sport-specific actions.
✅ Integrated Corrective & Strength Training – Strength work is seamlessly integrated with motor control and postural alignment drills, reinforcing proper movement mechanics, functional strength, and long-term performance.
Step 3: Progressive Strength & Power Development
✅ Progressive Strength Training – Utilize squat racks, barbells, kettlebells, and free weights to develop force production, endurance, and resilience.
✅ Power & Explosiveness Training – Incorporate Shuttle MVP, cable machines, and lateral slider equipment to improve acceleration, deceleration, and power output.
✅ Core, Rotational, & Unilateral Strength Training – Enhance stability, balance, and agility with single-leg exercises, rotational movements, and resistance-based core training using physio balls, bands, and functional movement drills.
✅ Sport-Specific Strength Application – Training is designed to replicate the demands of your sport, ensuring power and endurance translate to game-day performance.
