Fitness & Basketball Combo - Tinley Park, IL 2020

NextLEVEL24's Functional & Vertical Training program has two primary goals. The first is to improve athletic performance, which usually means improving athletes’ speed, strength, and power (although specifics vary according to the athlete). Trainer Jon Calhoun will develop systematic training programs for student athletes, which includes teaching proper techniques, supervising and motivating athletes as they work out. Assessments of their performance will be completed before and after the program. The nature of this training program will vary depending on the skill set of the athlete. During the off-season, conditioning programs will be quite rigorous to improve athlete's endurance and muscular strength. In season, training programs will be tailored to focus on maintaining an athletes’ conditioning and strength rather than improving it. The second primary goal is to reduce athletic injuries. To that end, conditioning coaches often design regimens to strengthen body parts that are prone to injury in basketball. Our goal is to keep student athletes healthy so they can stay out there competing. Perfecting our student athlete’s craft not only builds confidence but also has an overall positive impact on their lives.
