Athletic Performance Inc.

the foundation of athletic performance and injury prevention begins with the development of stability, strength and flexibility across all joints and throughout an athlete's movement patterns. api's middle school st program will emphasize: balance and proprioception, core stability and strength, joint specific stability and mobility, bodyweight control and resistance

speed, a measure of how fast an athlete can sprint short distances, will be trained and enhanced as a consistent part of a well-rounded training program. directional change (agility) occurs in all planes of motion: side-to-side, forward-to-backward, backward-to-forward, 45, 90, 180, 360 and every and direction in between. an athlete trained to make a quick and efficient directional change will improve in all phases of sport performance. api's middle school sd-dc program will emphasize: dynamic flexibility, linear speed development, multi-directional agility, foot speed

the foundation of athletic performance and injury prevention begins with the development of stability, strength and flexibility across all joints and throughout an athlete's movement patterns. each athlete will receive an individualized strength training program reflective of age, gender, sport, medical history and training experience. api's high school st program will emphasize: balance and proprioception, core stability and strength, joint specific stability and mobility, muscular strength and power

under the guidance of the api coaching staff, each collegiate athlete will be guided through their school-issued training program in an athlete-receptive training environment. api collegiate athletes will also have the option to follow a strength training program developed by api.

these are 90-minute clinic to introduce fundamental principles of speed development, multi-directional agility, athletic coordination and dynamic flexibility training. each clinic will be coordinated by olympic gold medalist sprinter and api performance coach, bernard williams.

osd is a high performance training program designed to help athletes increase their overall speed through world class instruction on efficient sprinting techniques and fundamentals. this program is coordinated by 2-time olympic medalist and api performance coach, bernard williams. first step and acceleration, anaerobic threshold training, dynamic flexibility, maximum velocity sprint mechanics

api offers competitive team training pricing, a low coach-to-athlete ratio and educational support for all coaches, players and parents involved in a team training program. team training programs are conducted at the api training facilities, at off-site locations, as a part of regular team practice or scheduled separately from team practice.

evaluation of an athlete's static posture provides the api coaching staff with an effective method for identifying muscular imbalances and structural deficiencies developed as a result of repetitive sport-related movement or prior musculoskeletal injury. specific areas of focus include: feet, ankles, knees, hips and shoulders.

the api functional movement assessment (fma) is a ranking and grading system that documents movement patterns that are essential to efficient athletic movement and the prevention of sport-related injury. by screening these movements, the fma readily identifies functional movement restrictions and joint-specific mobility and stability limitations. these limitations reduce the effects of sport performance training and increase the likelihood of suffering a sport-related injury.

mobility is the combination of normal joint range of motion and sufficient muscular flexibility. this is a must for proper mechanics and injury prevention. mobility allows the body to move in all six degrees of motion, therefore giving the ability to perform any motion. mobility allows the generation of elastic energy between muscles, and therefore establishes a base for efficient power production. specific areas of focus include ankle, hips, thoracic spine and shoulders.

muscular imbalance impacts structural alignment and increases the stress on joints, ligaments and muscles. manual muscle testing is used to determine the extent of the muscular imbalance. athletes with specific muscular imbalances will recruit secondary muscles as primary movers to create athletic movement resulting in inefficient movement and an increased risk of sport-related injury. specific areas of focus include glutes, hips and shoulders.

the club's personal training staff maintains essential professional criteria including: degree(s) in exercise science or related field., nationally recognized personal training certifications., professional personal training experience, annual continuing education
