Learn how to perform basic maintenance on your body, unlock your human potential, and live pain free Improve your athletic performance, extend your athletic career, treat body stiffness and achy joints, and rehabilitate injuries. In our mobility class we will teach you how to hack your own human movement, allowing you to live a healthy, happier, more fulfilling life, Athlete or not. Performance is what drives the human animal, but the human animal can be brought to an abrupt halt by dysfunctional movement patterns. Oftentimes, the factors that impede performance are invisible to not only the untrained eye, but also the majority of athletes and coaches. Our Mobility Class makes the invisible visible. In our Mobility class, we will be focusing each week on body positions, movements, specific body parts, different mobility methods, workout specific warm up, injury and posture specific topics. Going over techniques each week and illuminating common movement errors that cause injury and rob you of speed, power, endurance, and strength. Whether you are a professional athlete, a weekend warrior, or simply someone wanting to live healthy and free from restrictions, our Mobility class, will teach you how to maintain your body and harness your genetic potential.   Learn How to:
  • prevent and rehabilitate common athletic injuries
  • overhaul your movement habits
  • quickly identify, diagnose, and fix inefficient movement patterns
  • problem solve for pain and dysfunction in austere environments with little equipment
  • fix poor mechanics that rob power, bleed force, and dump torque

If anyone is interested the High School Rugby Midwest Tournament is this weekend (Saturday and Sunday) at the Elkhart Moose Rugby Ground. We have around 8-10 boys that have trained here for the last year that will be playing this weekend. This is a great chance to support their hard work. I will most likely be posting playing times on my Facebook page. Saturday will be Quarter and Semi-Finals, with Sunday being the Championship. I believe that cost to get in will be around $10.

Robert Mischler’s Strength and Conditioning Testimonial

By: 0

Going into the Strength & Conditioning program, I didn’t know what to expect because a lot of the movements and lifts were new to me. What I got out of the program beat my expectations tenfold. Not only was I able to train with my brother every day, but Carl and Brandon provided me and the other trainees the expertise needed to perform each exercise and lift to the best of our abilities. They were very personable and took the time to teach each athlete correct techniques while pushing us to be at our best. I made huge strides in my overall strength, explosiveness, and quickness in the short, ten weeks of training to the point when I got back to school, my Strength & Conditioning coach asked me, “What did you do this summer?” The Summer S&C training camp was a great experience all around and I’ll be back again this summer to do it again.
