1-1 or small group S&C training sessions available at Muscle Matters Therapy.
This is not personal training- S& C is tailored to your specific sport requirement and aims to improve your performance in that area.
Suitable for all performance sports.
Strength and conditioning training benefits athletes by reducing injury risk, increasing speed and power, improving running economy and endurance, and enhancing overall posture and balance. Strengthening muscles and connective tissues provides better joint stability, while improved neuromuscular coordination allows for more efficient energy use. S&C also boosts bone density, helps prevent muscular imbalances, and can improve recovery times.
Performance Benefits-
Increased Speed and Power:
Strength training builds muscle strength and power, enabling more forceful and efficient strides, which leads to faster running and better acceleration.
Improved Running Economy:
Stronger muscles require less energy to run at a given pace, meaning you can run farther and faster with less effort.
Enhanced Endurance:
Stronger muscles fatigue less quickly, allowing you to maintain your speed for longer distances.
Injury Prevention
Strengthened Connective Tissues:
By strengthening muscles, tendons, and ligaments, S&C provides better joint stability and acts as a shock absorber against the impact of running.
Corrects Muscle Imbalances:
Strength training addresses imbalances that can lead to overuse injuries like shin splints, IT band syndrome, and stress fractures.
Other Key Benefits
Better Form and Posture:
A stronger core and supporting muscles help improve your posture and alignment while running, leading to more efficient technique.
Improved Balance and Coordination:
Exercises that focus on single-leg strength and core stability enhance proprioception and control, which is vital for navigating uneven terrain.
Increased Bone Density:
Regular strength training strengthens bones, reducing the risk of fractures, particularly important for long-distance runners.
Faster Recovery:
Stronger muscles recover more quickly from hard workouts, which helps reduce soreness and allows for more consistent training. Stength & Conditioning
