Endurance Performance Enhancement
Are you tired of training for miles without feeling many performance gains? Do you want to run farther and faster? Do you want to improve your cardiovascular exercise capability?
Performance enhancement can help you achieve your goals. Performance enhancement is an integrated training program designed to enhance athletic performance and help you realize your ultimate potential. Performance enhancement programs use the latest sports-specific training teachings and equipment.
Each program covers 12 sessions — two per week for six weeks. A VO2 max test is done before and after treatment to measure aerobic training.
Standard endurance training protocol for runners
This is a treadmill program based on your personal VO2 max. The runs range from 25-50 minutes and are based on a percentage of your VO2 max. The program is integrated with circuit training to provide ultimate benefits. The program is designed to increase VO2 max, running economy and time to exhaustion. (This program should be supplemented with two additional runs per week.)
Advanced endurance training protocol for runners
This is a treadmill program based on your personal VO2 max. The runs are completed at high-intensity intervals based on a percentage of time to exhaustion. The program is integrated with high speed resistance training to provide ultimate benefits. The program is designed to decrease 5K-10K and marathon times, and increase running economy and time to exhaustion.
Soccer endurance enhancement
This treadmill program for soccer players is based on your personal VO2 max. The runs are completed in intervals over 30 minutes. The program is integrated with agility and ball handling skills to provide optimal benefits. The program is designed to increase VO2 max, running economy, the number of sprints per game, ball handling time per game and anaerobic threshold. (This program is intended for pre-season training.)
High-intensity training for the cyclist
This is a stationary bike program based on a percentage of your peak workload at your personal VO2 max. The training sessions are completed in intervals over 35-60 minutes. The program is designed to increase time to fatigue and peak work rate, and decrease 40K trial times. (This program is designed to supplement your normal workouts.)
VO2 testing
VO2 max testing is performed on a bike or treadmill and analyzed by metabolic analysis. The results provide max levels of heart rate, VO2, VCO2 and anaerobic threshold.
