Fitness Testing and FMS

Fitness testing involves various tests that primarily guide the coaching team to determine an athlete’s current strengths and weaknesses. Combine these tests with a current FMS or Functional Movement Screen and interventions can be programmed to eliminate dysfunction, allowing Coaches to then plan the most appropriate athletic training program based on the clients own current and future needs. FMS is the screening tool used to identify limitations or asymmetries in seven fundamental movement patterns that are key to functional movement quality in individuals with no current pain complaint or known musculoskeletal injury.

Performance Analysis

Performance Analysis identifies reference points, whereby training interventions can be put in place to improve the overall performance program. This allows the coach and individuals to plot areas of success and progression. We understand that everyone has different needs, so we offer each of our clients a service that’s unique to them through our research and consultancy services.

What is Performance Analysis?

• Breaks an individual’s performance down into its component parts
• Uses specific information to inform individuals on an area to improve and develop
• Allows individuals to see and interact with their own performance and to identify ways to improve
• Specific targets can be set to see if improvements have been made

Speed & Conditioning Training

Exceptional speed is inherent; however, all individuals can improve on their current level of speed by working on running technique, strength training, plyometrics, and reaction drills. Our programs are advanced and demanding on the body. A general level of conditioning is required to prevent injury and maximise the most out of the program.

What we offer:

• Sports specific training for the serious and amateur athlete, age related. 
• Continuous 8-week training program with 2 and 3 day sessions available
• Group and team training in-season and off-season
• Introductory rates available
• Monthly memberships available

Strength & Power Training

“We are in the Power Game, where an explosive athlete is a dominant athlete”

We provide training that…

• Improves overall conditioning
• Increases speed and flexibility
• Improves vertical and horizontal jump *
• Reduces risk of injury
• Improves explosiveness
• Improves strength
• Improves force production

Snatch

The Snatch is the fastest and most technical movement in all of sports. The bar is taken from the floor to full arms’ length overhead in a single continuous movement. The bar may be received in a full squat, half squat, or split squat. The full squat is the most dominant style to receive the bar, it also allows for the most weight to be lifted. The best performers in the world can lift well over double their own body weight in this manner.

Clean and Jerk

The clean and jerk is the King of the Olympic Lifts. It allows for even heavier weights to be lifted as it is completed in two stages. The athlete first lifts the bar from the ground to the shoulders in one motion (Clean). The clean can be received in a full squat, half squat or split squat. The bar is paused at the shoulders and then in a second motion driven overhead to arm’s length (Jerk). The jerk can be received as a Power Jerk (in a ¼ squat position) or the more traditional Split Squat (legs in a lunge position). Some lifters have achieved a weight equivalent to three times their own body weight, while the top super heavy weights are capable of lifting more than 250kg – over a quarter of a ton!
