When should I start training
before a competition or season?
Basically, the earlier the better. The athlete must understand that
cellular and muscular adaptations needed for premium competition
require many things, most of which is TIME. Also, the time it takes
for an athlete to experience these adaptions varies considerably.
At Preston Student Athlete Services, we recommend that the athlete
begins the Jump 2 Speed training several months prior to a competition,
try-out, or regular season.
How long does the training
protocol last?
While the intensity varies throughout the season, the Jump 2 Speed
program does not have an "off-season". It is a continuous training
program designed to establish and maintain a constant state of optimum
performance.
How long will it take until
I see results?
As stated earlier, training results vary considerably between athletes.
There currently isn't any scientific evidence as to why one athlete
responds faster to training stimuli than another. Some theorize
the answer resides in genetic profiles. Regardless of why, with
determination and dedication, ALL of our athletes will experience
training adaptions.
Is there an age limit to
begin training with PSAS?
There is not an age limit for training. We have trained athletes
from 7 years old to adults. We personalize our training prescriptions
for our young and adult participants.
I am already good at my
sport. Why do I need to train?
No matter how
good you are, every athlete can become better. Many times athletes
will begin training because
they see areas where they need to improve, but this is a common
mistake. Athletes of all levels of performance need to train in
order to obtain peak performance. Professional athletes train religiously;
why should amateur, college and high school athletes settle for
any less?
I am an adult training
for an upcoming career (fire fighter, police officer, etc.). Can
you help me?
Absolutely. Our
expert training is not limited to just student athletes but to anyone
who strives to compete physically on the field or in their career.
We apply the necessary exercise designs to ensure excellence in
any physical test/career or exercise plan.
I understand that you train
players but can you train entire teams?
If
given a preference, we would rather train an entire team. By doing
that, we can raise the level of play for the whole team and not
just a single athlete.
We can accommodate any team, regardless of sport. Our goal is not
to make a team better, but to make a team the best.
