Individualisation:
Each athlete is treated as a unique individual, at no point will the athlete receive templated program design. We believe that to truly develop you to your maximum potential each athlete requires one coach. At all times we will consider the areas outside of your physical training, including your lifestyle (personal and professional) and your nutritional needs.
Structure:
Each athlete will require a structured plan. Structured programming is a programming paradigm aimed at improving the clarity, quality, and development time of an athlete by making extensive use of the structured control flow constructs of, periodisation, macro, meso and micro cycling, selection and repetition, block structures and subroutines, tempo and rest times. This means we ensure that you know exactly what you are meant to be doing and when you should be doing it
Progression
Each athlete needs to be able to move gradually, appropriately towards their specific and personal goals, at a rate that allows them to be successful and towards a more advanced state of performance.
Specificity:
Our coaching service is specific to the individual and specific to the goal. Each program is designed to help the tactical athlete to reach and exceed the demands of the test, considering their individual needs and limitations.
