Sports Performance Training for Teens
Build A Better Athlete
Whether your athlete plays soccer, football, lacrosse, baseball, softball, basketball, volleyball, runs track, wrestles or just wants to become stronger and more athletic, our Sports Performance Training program is designed to help them build the foundation for better performance.
Over six weeks, athletes will work on strength, speed, agility, coordination, balance, movement technique, and overall athletic performance in a positive, encouraging environment.
They'll work hard. They'll learn how to move better. And they'll have some fun while they're doing it.
How the Program Works
6-Week Mini Program
Athletes will train up to twice per week for six weeks, allowing them to build on what they learn from one session to the next.
Progressive Training
Athletes won't be expected to walk in knowing how to lift or perform advanced movements. Lauren will teach proper technique first and gradually progress movements based on each athlete's ability.
Small-Group Environment
Athletes get the energy and fun of training alongside other teens while still receiving coaching, correction, and encouragement.
Who Is This For?
This program is open to athletes ages 12–17 from all sports and experience levels.
It's a great fit for:
- Middle and high school athletes
- Multi-sport athletes
- Athletes preparing for an upcoming season
- Teens who want to become stronger or faster
- Athletes who want to improve agility and coordination
- Teens who have never done structured strength training before
- Experienced athletes who want additional performance training outside of team practices
Your athlete does not need CrossFit experience to participate.
Your questions, answered.
Athletes should wear comfortable athletic clothing and supportive athletic shoes. Please bring:
- A water bottle
- Athletic shoes
- Any braces or supports normally used for training
- A willingness to work hard!
Athletes can choose between two class bundles depending on how often they would like to train:
6 classes — $150 — ideal for attending approximately once per week
12 classes — $300 — ideal for attending both weekly sessions
We understand that schedules get busy and occasionally an athlete may need to miss a session.
Because classes are purchased in bundles, athletes have more flexibility in choosing which days they attend. Those attending once a week are not locked into the same day every week, so if their schedule changes, they can attend the other weekly session when needed.
As with any training program, athletes will get the most benefit from attending consistently throughout the six weeks.
The program runs for six weeks, but athletes can choose how frequently they train by purchasing either a 6-class or 12-class bundle.
A 6-class bundle is a great option for athletes planning to attend about once per week or who need a little more flexibility in their schedule. The 12-class bundle allows athletes to attend both training days each week and get the full benefit of twice-weekly training.
No. The athletes will not be completing the gym's regular CrossFit Workout of the Day.
The program is being hosted at CrossFit Thunder Hill because the gym gives Lauren access to a wide variety of equipment and plenty of options for strength, speed, agility, and athletic performance training. The workouts themselves are specifically designed for the youth athletes participating in the Sports Performance Program.
Yes. We have a small seating area with a few chairs and a couch for parents who would like to stay during class.
Some parents choose to watch, while others use the time to walk a few laps around the parking lot, get in a little movement of their own, or squeeze in an errand or two nearby.
We are located at 501 S. Third Street in Oxford, Pennsylvania.
When youth training is properly supervised and designed around age-appropriate movements, technique, and gradual progression, strength and resistance training can be appropriate for adolescents.
This program emphasizes how an athlete moves before how much they can lift. Athletes will learn technique and movement progressions before additional resistance or difficulty is introduced.
No. Beginners are welcome. Athletes will be coached from their current ability level, so prior CrossFit, weightlifting, or strength-training experience is not required.
No. The program is intentionally designed for all sports.
Rather than teaching sport-specific skills such as shooting a basketball, swinging a bat, or kicking a soccer ball, we'll develop the athletic qualities that carry over into many sports: strength, speed, coordination, agility, balance, power, and movement quality.
Sports practice teaches athletes the skills and strategy of their particular sport.
Sports performance training works on the athlete underneath the sport.
We're developing fundamental physical qualities like strength, speed, agility, coordination, balance, and movement mechanics that can support performance across many different athletic activities.
