Training Goals

To be able to move our bodies as fast as possible for as long as possible with less energy expenditure and less effort.
To develop speed, strength and endurance.
To enhance sports performance in the least possible time, without neglecting other facets of our lives.

How: We achieve these goals by training you based on your heart rate, utilizing functional training methods.

Functional Training: takes into account the metabolic requirements, movement patterns, and muscle activation required by your sport to develop maximal sport-specific fitness. The result: better balance and muscular control during every movement, translating to greater efficiency and improved performance.

Training and Monitoring your Heart: Our heart is responsible for pumping oxygenated blood to the muscles to allow them to contract repetitively over time. The goal of training the heart is to increase the efficiency of this essential transfer of oxygen- causing it to pump more blood with less beats. This will allow you to maintain a higher speed of work for longer, with less fatigue.

Endurance training is often referred to as “cardiovascular” training. Cardio- refers to the heart (or “cardiac”) and -vascular refers to the arteries and veins that transport blood. In other words, endurance training is the training of the heart. Logically following is that the best way guide training stimulus application, and to gauge how the heart is responding to that stimulus, is to use a heart rate monitor. In this way we can tailor exercise to train the heart and improve its efficiency, which will translate in the ability to perform better in endurance (or cardiovascular) sports.
