Strength & Conditioning Program

Strength Speed Agility offers a strength and conditioning service which can be accessed in conjunction with, or separately to, the private cricket coaching program. After a functional movement screen by an FMS© qualified coach (Michael Brundle), a customized program is designed for the athlete. The program and results are continually assessed and analyzed to better understand the athlete, and optimize every facet of their performance. The goal is not only to improve each athlete’s mental and technical ability, but to enhance their performance by improving their overall movement control. Included is a dynamic flexibility and mobility program to improve these patterns.

Individual (1-on-1) Sessions 
  • Based on the athlete’s FMS results, their personal goals and the specific needs of the sport they are preparing for, an individualized training program is designed. Individual sessions with a qualified strength and conditioning coach involve mobility, speed and agility, power and strength development and energy system training (conditioning).
  • Individual sessions run for 60 minutes.
  • Equipment used: medicine balls, resistance bands, agility ladders, slideboards, plyometrics boxes, TRX suspension trainer, free-weights and kettlebells.
Online Strength & Conditioning Program
  • After a FMS, a program is designed which optimizes foundational human movement to help athletes reach their full potential. This program is delivered through the XPS trainer software which the athlete can access online or through a smart phone application.
  • The athlete will need to video record some of their movement/exercises on a regular basis so that their coach can review their quality of movement and the program can be adjusted accordingly to restore optimal movement and remove potential limitations.
