Athletic Foundations Youth Sports Training • Irmo SC
Youth Sports Training Program for Ages 8-13
Athletic Foundations is the first in our Sports Performance Training series, focusing on boys and girls from 9-13 years old. Scientific research shows that the age range from 8-12 is critical for motor skill development in youth athletes. During these formative years, It is crucial for young athletes to begin developing proper motor patterns in order to maximize future athletic potential. Our youth performance training program employs up-to-date sports research to lay the foundation for long term athletic development.
Once these foundations are established, our program continues to build neuromuscular patterns and apply those skills towards athletic application. We introduces olympic weightlifting techniques, focusing on proper movement with increased force production. This training prepares young athletes for the high school weight room and ensures that, as they become bigger and stronger, the need for improved joint integrity is met. In addition to strength, we also focus on speed and agility training.
Each athlete will learn:
- Dynamic Warm-ups
- Running Technique
- Balance and Coordination
- Acceleration
- Change of direction
- Maximum velocity
- Strength training
- Sport specific supplementary exercises
- Injury prevention

What makes our youth sports training program different?
Most high school athlete's are trained to do 4 sets of 6 reps, like this:
135(work set)
135(work set)
135( work set)
185 (ego set) = 3540 lbs total
That last set usually looks pretty ugly.
What Athlete's Arena teaches:, 4 sets of 6, like this:
135 (warm up)
155 (warm up)
165 @ 4 sets of 6 = 3960lbs. (NO FAIL)
Safer and stronger, consistent reps. Our way produces better quality reps, and more weight lifted. Athletes get bigger, stronger, faster, better.
Testimonials from our athletes
Lane Mueller, Football player - Foundations Class Athlete
I didn’t start last year but ended up starting every football game this year. I noticed I had more motivation and had improved in every way possible thanks to Athletes Arena’s Foundation Program. I enjoy making new friends from the gym and have become much more active because of them. My instructor is good and always makes sure my form is right and pushes me to be better.
Nolan Mayer, Football player - Foundations Class Athlete
I was a lot more agile on my feet and that made it easier to make tackles this season. I had 3 sacks this year as well compared to none last year so that was a huge difference. I have enjoyed getting stronger and meeting a bunch of new people. Our Instructor is also very good and fun to be around.
