There are many thoughts and theories regarding the ideals and principals of “Good Coaching”.  “Good Coaching” is simply placing your athletes in the best possible position for them and the team to succeed.  Performance enhancement training takes a strong work ethic and practice. 

Teaching your body how to train with high intensity is a skill that takes repetition and patience to master.  “Good Coaching” is consistently reinforcing proper body positioning on every sprint or drill. 

Is there really such a thing as sport specific training??   What actually comprises a true sport specific program??   It depends on which expert you ask.  I’ve heard this debated among the top speed guys in the industry and it seems that a majority of them are missing the point.  Some of these top trainers say If I’m training a wide receiver all I have to do is have him cut and run a pattern or when I train soccer players just have them dribble a ball,or if I’m training a lacrosse athlete just give them a stick. Are these guys serious??  

If your program claims to be sport specific then it must develop the athlete to meet the energy system demands of the sport utilizing drills to enhance position play.   If you are going to design a sport specific training program but don’t implement position specific drills that re-enforce techniques required at the athletes position then you are wasting their time.  Of course your program should be designed to improve athleticism 1st, focusing on mechanics, acceleration development and change of direction.  Yet the piece that most people miss is understanding the demands of the position and how to employ them into your sport specific program.

Sport specific training should mean that your drills and speed training routines ought to simulate movement patterns of the athlete’s position. In order for you to design an effective sport specific training program you must 1st understand position technique and demands.   You can’t just tell an athlete to run through some hurdles, cut and run a pattern and expect them to improve as a wide receiver, or decelerate and catch a fly ball to become a golden glove outfielder.  There are fundamental techniques that must be taught and reinforced to improve position play.

Yes, there is a process that must be followed before implementing position specific drills.  Athletes must first learn how to use proper mechanics while sprinting and teach their bodies how to decelerate before position specific drills are put into practice.  The goal of any program should be to improve overall athletic performance.   Athletes must first learn how to run 10 yards and decelerate before a ball of any kind is thrown into the mix.

In order to increase running speed one must practice sprinting with proper mechanics at high speeds.  Learning how to position and control your body while accelerating or decelerating will allow athletes to make plays on the field.

When starting any type of performance speed training program acceleration, deceleration and speed drills must be implemented first. The P01 Sports deceleration progression and acceleration development plan will break down the movement of athletes replicating game situations and movements for all sports. 

Athletes for any field sport and all positions will be required to change direction and reaccelerate numerous times throughout the course of a game.  Speed and agility training for athletes can be a difficult task.  P01 Sports will show your athletes how to run fast!! 

Being able to transition smooth yet aggressively from accelerating to decelerating is the key to being agile and moving in multiple directions.  Deceleration drills should be the foundation of your agility program and will also play a major role in preventing injuries by improving body control.

Athletes that can decelerate the fastest before changing directions will experience the most success on the field.  The fastest athletes know how to change direction quickly while still maintaining speed.  Proper deceleration training will enhance foot speed and reaction time. 

Discover all of the secrets of sprint training and acceleration development.  Learn new speed drills to place athletes in the best possible position to accelerate effectively and reach top speed fluently.
