FAST vs SLOW ATHLETE

We often get asked...HOW DO I GET FASTER? 🤔
Find out below 👇

A key difference between a faster athlete and a slower one is how much force they can apply and how quickly they can apply it.

Just being stronger isn't the answer...That will make your more resilient and less prone to injury but strength alone won't make you faster unless you also learn to apply that force quickly! This applies to running, jumping and in different planes of motion.

This force-time curve is a simple representation of what makes a fast athlete fast. The fast  (yellow line) shows a ⬆️ high peak force with a ⬇️ short ground contact time (GCT) while the slower athlete (black line) has a ⬇️ lower peak force with a longer GCT.
The FASTER athlete doesn't just produce more force, they do it faster too!

THE ANSWER....👇
💣 Training Power
🔥 Plyometrics
💨 Sprinting
🧠 Coordination
⚙️ Mechanics &
💪 Strength

At we train / teach you all of the above to help you get that PB, run faster, jump higher &

You'll soon notice it, and so will others come next season...🔥

A common loading error when returning to run is adding intensity too soon and not letting the tissues adapt adequately prior to doing so.

Here is a little tip on when & how to add intensity:
1. Build low intensity volume back to where it was pre injury
2. Drop volume approx. 20%
3. Add intensity gradually
4. Keep up your strength work

We'll post another way can in somewhat fast track building intensity a little earlier soon.

RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) isn’t just a problem for elite athletes — we see signs of under-fuelling every week in recreational runners, teens, lifters, and weekend warriors.

Under-eating impacts:
• performance
• hormones
• bone health
• mood
• recovery
• injury risk

👉 Food is fuel.
👉 Fuel is performance.
👉 Performance is health.

If you’re unsure whether you or your teen athlete is eating enough for your training load, our Sports Dietitian team can help.
