FAQs
ask us anything
The following are some of the most common questions we get from clients as they look to get started with us.
What time do the workouts take place?
Scheduling is specific to location and time of year. Schedule your Free Assessment to learn more about membership options and selecting the best schedule for you.
How long are the workouts?
Each training session is 55-minutes in length. Each session includes: a dynamic warm-up, speed & agility training, power development, strength training and conditioning.
What if my child has never worked out before?
That’s a perfect scenario! We love introducing beginners to safe training, hard work, and building proper habits. Our coaches work with each individual athlete within a private, small group setting so the workouts are specifically designed for their current ability and level of fitness.
Regardless if they are new to training or have done other programs in the past, we will prescribe the best plan for where they’re at and what they need to improve. We determine this through a complimentary assessment and parent consultation so you know exactly the type of program and environment your child will be participating in.
How many other kids are in each session?
Your athlete will be training alongside a maximum of 7 other athletes per coach each session. These small, private sessions ensure optimal, safe, and detailed training is taking place during every session.
How many sessions per week should an athlete come to?
Athletes should train as often as their schedule allows for consistency. A good aiming point is to train at least 2 sessions per week. The more they attend, the more they are coached, the more habits are reinforced, and the faster their results will show up.
Consistency allows us to help build a foundation and truly build upon it as they are learning so many new skills. Especially at a young age!
