The La Salle sports performance program is centered on HARD WORK and MAXIMUM EFFORT. The foundation of our philosophy is based on a comprehensive, year-round, progressive training approach. Our objective is not only to provide a progressive systematic approach to all facets of training, but to do so in a safe and efficient manner.
Basic Philosophy of Training
The goals of our sports performance program are concentrated on injury prevention and maximal physical development. We believe that a strong, well-trained athlete is not only less susceptible to injury, but also better able to recover if injury does occur. Our other goal is to develop our teams/athletes to their maximal physical potential. Our strength training programs target all muscles and joint regions; neither over-emphasizing nor under-emphasizing any one specific body part. The conditioning programs will involve the development of both aerobic and anaerobic energy systems through interval and distance-based training protocols. We also dedicate time to flexibility, mobility, agility, balance, and speed development.
