• DS Performance training programs are designed to run alongside a skill/sport-specific based training plan. Our programs provide sessions for 3 days of training a week, to alternate between your skill/sport-specific training sessions.

 

• Our 12-week strength and conditioning training program are broken down into 2 x 6-week cycles, with a de-loading between the two training blocks. This will allow the body to recover, prepare you for the second training phase and reduce any risk of injury.

 

• Along with your training program this book contains a supporting guide to mobility training. This guide uses myofascial release, static stretching, and activation work to mobilize the major body parts used in training.  

 

• Designed to reduce the risk of injury and avoid bad training habits through our sport-specific training programs. We provide training programs designed by ex-team GB athletes and coaching staff that have practical and applied experience through a wide range of individual and team-based sports.      

 

• Our program has been developed to bring elite training methods to everyone, from all levels of sporting ability. Our mission is to make training programs utilized by professional athletes available to all sporting enthusiasts and performers.

The amateur training level is specifically designed to be utilised at the beginning of a new training cycle where you need to condition the body for higher intensity training. It is also the entry level for when you’re new to sport specific strength & conditioning training and a general preparation phase is required, before moving to the next level.

 

Anaerobic conditioning in lacrosse is a key physical attribute for success in the game, because it allows a player to run faster for longer. This is why we have identified it and provided programmes to develop your anaerobic threshold.

 

Our anaerobic programmes are designed to increase your lactic acid capacity, which then allows you to perform higher levels of skill when fatigued. This will then transfer on to the pitch where you can out work opponents and produce the winning shot when at your most fatigued.

 

The anaerobic conditioning programmes are perfect for two phases of your training cycle, at the beginning as part of your general conditioning phase and also as part of your pre and during competition phase of training.
