Speed Is Key to All Athletic Development

Athletes come to us in all shapes and sizes.  And, they come to us with various levels of talent, intelligence, physical abilities, and passion.

In the case of this blog, I want to talk about the importance of speed.  

It's an asset in every sport we train.  Some of our athletes come with it.  Some don't.  Some are smart.  Some are not so smart—sports-wise.

And some—potentially standouts—come equipped with both, speed and smarts.  

In the case of the smart and speedy athlete, our job is to maintain the speed and nurture the smarts.  Our job is to give guidance and direction.

The real development opportunity lies with the smart, slower athlete. They are also potential standouts because we can teach speed.
