SPORTS PERFORMANCE TRAINING
At the Y, our cause is strengthening the foundations of community - one person, one family, one team at a time. Sports Performance Training at the YMCA of Central Virginia will help you build the sport-specific strength you'll need to reach your potential.
Sport Specific Training
We use safe, proven exercises that transfer to your sport. You’ll see significant, measurable improvements in critical areas, including: reaction time, acceleration, top speed, power, strength, mobility, balance and agility.
And when you work with other members of your team, there's an added benefit. By working together through challenging exercises, you'll build the team spirit you'll need when the season gets tough.
