    An Integrated Approach to Speed & Power Development: 2 Day UK Workshop

    0
    By Mike Young on February 27, 2015 Mike Young's Blog

    profermanceI’m very excited to announce my first workshop in the UK organized by PROFORMANCE?Strength & Conditioning. While I regularly present in North America my?only previous?speaking experience in Europe was in Dublin last year. In Dublin I presented on “In-season / Off-season Training for Football (Soccer).” You can watch the video of that presentation HERE.

    This 2 day workshop will be something that I’ve never?done….a combination of lecture and hands-on workshop over 2 days. I’m planning to share my thoughts on how I integrate all of the sports sciences (motor learning, physiology, biomechanics, muscle mechanics, training theory) to develop speed and power. ?The workshop will be appropriate for athletes and coaches in both individual and team sports. Here is the tentative workshop outline and necessary info:
