Eagle Fitness will train your son or daughter on the proper way to increase speed, agility, strength, and endurance by using functional training techniques along with coaching proper mechanics. The purpose of this training is to help athletes transfer what they have learned and developed from the gym to the playing field. These classes are recommended for athletes in sports such as baseball, softball, football, basketball, swimming, wrestling, volleyball, track, tennis, golf, soccer, ultimate fighting, cheerleading and any other sport that requires speed, strength and coordination.

Classes are being ran by Eagle Fitness staff memeber Jim Tuso in affiliation with other trainers from Eagle Fitness and William Jewell University. These classes are intended to get a player in shape for their upcoming sports season and to improve a player's speed and agility skills which will in turn make your son or daughter a better athlete.

Classes are intended for any athlete (male or female) between the ages of 5 to 14. He or she must be committed to improving their current athletic skills with a willingness to work at a high level of intensity. These classes will require maximum effort and commitment.

The payment for the classes is handled at the front desk. You have to pay to attend each class or you will not be allowed to attend. All payment is conducted through Eagle Fitness Health Club and not Jim Tuso or any of the other instructors.

WORKOUT MYTH

Myth:
You can’t train speed

Comments:
For some reason it is a popular belief that you are born with a certain amount of ‘speed’ and you can’t improve it. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Most young athletes are so physically weak and mechanically out of tune that significant improvements in speed can be made often just by working on technique and form. Athletes at any age and any level can improve speed when implementing a complete speed training program designed to improve and develop the entire athlete.

WORKOUT MYTH

Myth:
Strength training will stunt a young athlete’s growth

Comments:
This is another myth held over from a different time. On a daily basis, kids as young as 7 years old are playing organized sports year round, tackling, getting tackled, sliding, falling etc.. These loads on the body can have a much greater physical impact than a well designed strength training program. Though we don’t usually begin training with weights with pre pubescent athletes, they can benefit from body weight exercises such as push ups, lunges, sit ups, etc. This will increase muscular efficiency, speed up recovery, improve coordination and overall speed.

WORKOUT MYTH

Myth:
Flexibility won’t help you get faster

Comments:
So many athletes suffer injuries or compete below their capacity because poor flexibility inhibits their range of motion and speed. We see this often in the hips and hip flexors where athletes’ stride length appears conspicuously short. Most often we see this in male athletes who will lift weights, train hard and then skip out on their cool down and flexibility work.
