START THE SCHOOL YEAR WITH THE FASTER PROGRAM

FASTER stands for Fitness and Sports Training Enhanced Rehabilitation. The FASTER program is an innovative method to optimize performance by emphasizing correct biomechanics, core strengthening, and proper muscle recruitment patterns for higher speeds. Training begins with an evaluation to target biomechanical deficits and imbalances which can lead to power leaks. Once these are detected, personalized training programs are formulated to safely meet your individual needs. TheFASTERprogramfocusesonoptimizingthefollowingcharacteristics: Correct biomechanics. This includes gait analysis and correction as well as postural analysis and correction using functional assessment tools. Core strengthening. The core acts as the body’s foundation. With a stable foundation, optimum levels of fitness can be achieved. Vibration training is included to create ideal muscle activation. Proper muscle recruitment patterns. This includes vibration plate and unweighted treadmill training. Jump-on’s and 360’s on our over-speed 28mph treadmill focus on neuromuscular adaptations to increase the efficiency of the first step and increase explosive power and top speed.

Most importantly, this program is safe. We use a system which not only allows you train beyond normal limits but provides for a safe atmosphere. Take your speed and agility to the next level! Optimal functioning of these characteristics not only significantly reduces the occurrences of injury, but also increases: • Speed • Vertical Jump • Agility

• Flexibility • Strength • Balance • Body Composition • Coordination

At the end of the initial program, our average athlete gains: • 2” increase in vertical jump • 2/10 sec decrease in 40 yard dash • 2 sec off their shuttle time

The program is 18 sessions usually 9 weeks or 9 sessions 4-5 weeks. Please contact our office for different rate options.
