EYF Area -  Adults

Performance training is important to the health and well-being of all athletes and adults, not just those who seek to play in college or professionally.

For many, this is their first time in the weight room, which presents a perfect opportunity to equip these adults with the right skills that will help them live a healthy life. For any athlete to reach his or her full potential, a safe and sound strength and conditioning program is an absolute must. Individuals, teams, and those seeking to be healthier and more fit are welcome to participate!

Middle and High School Students

All sports and skill levels welcome!

Performance training is important to the health and well-being of all athletes, not just those who seek to play in college or professionally.

Emerald Youth’s strength and conditioning program for middle and high school students is built upon a foundation of long term athletic development. We use safe and progressive instruction, so any young person can learn the proper form and technique for all the movements we teach (i.e. Olympic lifts, squats, bench press, deadlifts, plyometrics, SAQ, etc.), regardless of experience level.

For many youth, this is their first time in the weight room, which presents a perfect opportunity to equip these young adults with the right skills that will help them compete in future sports. For any athlete to reach his or her full potential, a safe and sound strength and conditioning program is an absolute must. Individuals, teams, and those seeking to be healthier and more fit are welcome to participate!
