The date of our first speed camp is fast approaching. We’re only 1 week away and there are still a couple spots left to fill. This is going to be a great opportunity for athletes of all sports to enhance their speed and learn the fundamentals of training to get faster. Speed is the foundation for success in many sports from soccer to baseball to football. If you don’t have break-away speed you’re not getting touches on the ball, stealing bases, or scoring that touchdown. Our speed camps will be a great hands-on opportunity to work with speed development experts. Led by Mike Young, our team of experts will help you achieve you be your fastest and get ready to make that big play.
Mike Young, the director of the speed camps, has coached some of the fastest athletes in the world from Superbowl champions to Track & Field national champions. Don’t settle by learning speed from a personal trainer or physical therapist. Come to the speed development expert that NFL players, USA Track & Field, the Chinese and South African Olympic committees, and the Carolina Railhawks all trust to get as fast and powerful as possible.
We just wanted to send out another reminder that our Summer training schedule changes tomorrow (June 14, 2010). Here’s the schedule with notable written changes below.
Please note the following changes:
We will have “Open Gym” training sessions that are open to members of the Scholastic Training, Performance Fitness, and Elite Development classes to make up for missed training sessions or provide an alternative training time. For the summer hours, open gym will be available on Wed and Fri at 2 pm; and Tues and Thurs at 5 pm.
The Scholastic Training sessions are now available Mon-Fri at 9:20 am AND 3:30 pm.
The Olympic Weightlifting training sessions are now on Tues and Fri at 6 pm.
The TPI Golf Fitness class is now offered at 12:15 pm on Mon, Wed and Fri.
The Performance Fitness class is now available Mon-Fri at 7 am; Mon, Wed and Fri at 5 pm; and Mon and Thurs at 6 pm
Two weeks ago we experimented with the concept of having a flexible “Open Gym” on Memorial Day. We found it was pretty successful for offering an opportunity for clients and athletes to make up missed workouts or use as an alternative training time. The venture worked so well we’re making it a permanent fixture in our new Summer Schedule. In the Summer schedule, we are offering Open Gym times on Tuesday and Thursday at 5 pm and Wed and Fri at 2 pm. Members of the Scholastic Training, Performance Fitness and Elite Development classes can attend the class. Note that the Open Gym sessions are limited to only 1 hour and the workout must be completed in that time slot. The sessions will be instructed and supervised to the same extent as normal class sessions however there may be clients from other training groups in your session. Because of the fact that there may be multiple groups training concurrently we are limiting the number of clients that can attend any Open Gym session to 6 and it is recommended that users RSVP via our scheduling manager to ensure a trainer is available and the class is not overbooked.
Athletic Lab is pleased to announce their Summer training schedule. The new schedule for classes will begin with the week of June 14, 2010.

Everyone knows that in sports, speed kills. Athletic Lab is excited to announce two upcoming summer speed camps. These camps are designed to enhance the straight ahead speed for players of all sports. Athletes from football, soccer, track, basketball and baseball will all benefit from our advanced speed training methods. Athletes will learn Mike Young, PhD, one of the foremost speed experts in the world. Young has helped athletes from a variety of sports ranging from football to soccer to track and field to maximize their speed. He has coached over 20 nationally ranked track and field sprinters and jumpers, handles the speed development for the Carolina Railhawks professional soccer team, trained over a dozen drafted athletes for the NFL combine, and consulted for USA Track & Field, USA Speed Skating; the Chinese and South African Olympic committees; and the NC Law Enforcement agency.
Each speed camp will consist of 6 days of immersive teaching and training on how to become as fast as possible. Each day’s session will last 90 minutes and make the athlete a more physically and technically competent speedster.
Speed Training Highlights:
