Sport Conditioning (Boot Camp for Guys)

without comments

 

  • Did you wake up one morning after your game and feel a lot more aches and pains than in the past?

 

  • Are your feet and hands doing one thing, but your head something else on the playing field or ice rink?

 

  • Are you starting to suffer from injuries more often than before?  Or has it even caused you to give up on a sport you still love?

 

  • Do you find that it’s getting harder and harder to keep up to those young guys?

 

  • Did you used to be one of those young guys?

If this sounds like you then we have a class that is right up your alley. This is dryland training designed to restore you to your previous glory. If you never had any glory then just make it up, how would we know otherwise?

Most sports are based on the same basic movements and patterns. Soccer, basketball, hockey, football, baseball, rugby, tennis etc. We will take you through some basic (and eventually complicated) speed, agility, quickness, strength, endurance, aerobic & anaerobic conditioninig, flexibility and core exercises over 60 minutes two days per week.  In time at all you will be faster, stronger, quicker and leaving your opponents behind.

So whether you want to improve your sport performance, supplement your weekend recreational activities, get back out there again after a long layoff, or just get back shape in a sports like training environment, come and give this class a go. Yes, this is a group exercise class, but it is designed to replicate the training and practices that you have likely experienced in the past, except there are no player cuts here. One hour will go by quickly and hopefully you will be on your way to a better conditioned body for whatever sport (or just because) you play.

Class begins with a dynamic warm up to get your body moving and prepared for exercise. Then we get into a combination of interval based circuits designed to improve your strength, power, speed, agility, core and overall performance. These circuits are sometimes group based, sometimes individual and always challenging. Never the same sequence twice. Some classes we will open with some specific training techniques and work on exercise function and proper body mechanics (think deadlift, squats, presses, cleans, kettlebell, pull ups, core activation etc) before getting into the circuits. All classes end with a short cool down and stretch.

We will also provide you with some basic nutritional advice. Sure you can still have the post game barley sandwiches, but at least you will be know what else to consume with it,  and what meals  to eat  pre and post game.

 After all, if Chris Chelios can still play professional hockey at age 47………………………..there’s still hope for you.
