Training Philosophy

Every athlete for every sport is unique and one-of-a-kind. Keeping this in mind, we here at Basketball&Barbells Performance, LLC strive to create better athletes through a systematic and scientific approach that caters to each individual; every workout program is as unique as the athlete it was created for. Our training philosophy is based around multiple disciplines, but borrows heavily from Mike Boyle’s Joint-By-Joint approach and Applied Functional Science, which are concepts built around building robust and durable athletes through functional movement. It is our responsibility to ensure athletes move well first, before they begin to move often.

Our performance training includes a unique blend of mobility,stability,agility, strength and power to create the optimal athlete for their sport.


Why do you need a sports performance specialist?

Reduce injuries:

A qualified strength and conditioning professional can play a pivotal role in preparing young athletes for sport, and thereby minimize or offset the incidence and severity of sport-related injuries common to young athletes. Availability is the best ability: it does not matter if you have a 40 in. vertical if you cannot express it on the court!

Improve long-term athletic development:

A qualified strength and conditioning professional understands the many variables that go into designing training age–appropriate programs, and can produce more positive results

Improve performance:

Athletes who participate in a well- designed strength and conditioning program may be faster, stronger, more powerful, move more efficiently, and be more athletic than they would be without it

Improve confidence:

Athletes who invest time in strength and conditioning tend to develop confidence through desired changes in their body composition, increased physical literacy, and the knowledge that the development that occurred because of their training prepares them for competition

Improve health:

In addition to increasing muscular strength, power, and endurance, regular participation in a youth resistance training program may positively affect many health- and fitness-related measures and alleviate many adverse health-related conditions
