What Saltus Does
We have designed soccer-inspired strength and conditioning program involving the weight room and speed work. When you come to Saltus, we will perform a complete performance test to measure key physical indicators and provide you with a detailed report. As your training progresses, we will be able to monitor and measure your performance improvement, which we expect to see on and off the field.
Increase Your Power
Power or acceleration is the ability to produce high force quickly. Great for exploding with the ball, accelerating, changing direction and contact. In soccer, the foot-to-ground contact time is less than a second, so you must ensure you are exploding through your steps. Exercises used to increase power: Squat jumps, vertical jumps, and more.
Increase Your Speed
Speed is the distance covered at a certain time. Research suggests as playing levels increase (from amateur to professional), players get faster, correlating speed with one of the main factors of soccer success. Training methods using to test & increase speed: linear 5 – 40 meters, change of direction drills, and more.
Increase Your Endurance
With a soccer game lasting 90 minutes, a well-developed aerobic system allows athletes to move around the field with ease and helps with their ability to recover from explosive bursts needed in soccer. Training methods used to test and increase endurance are the Yo-yo test, 400m repeats, and more.
Increase Your Strength
One of the most important, yet least spoken attributes of a soccer player is strength. How are you able to tackle defend the ball & other charging opposing players? In addition, strength training helps to promote greater injury resilience and better speed. Exercises used to test & increase strength: Squats, Isometric Mid Thigh Pull and more.
HEAR FROM ONE OF OUR ATHLETES
I approached Saltus because I wanted to improve the physical aspect of my game. Saltus helped me tremendously in terms of improving my strength and physicality. Just one or two years ago I was one of the weakest players on my team, but after consistently working with Saltus’ coaches I am now among the strongest. After coming to Saltus I have seen a great improvement in my performance as I no longer struggle with the physical aspect of the game. Saltus has also helped me remain injury free and always fit and ready to play. A great thing about Saltus is the intensity of the sessions. The coaches at Saltus do a great job putting together a great workout every time, and after each session I really feel challenged from the different workouts we do. They are very persistent and are always pushing us. There is a great competitive atmosphere inside the weight room which pushes you and improves your athleticism much faster than other atmospheres. I would recommend Saltus to people with big athletic ambitions and goals. The training at Saltus is second to none in this city and is a great place for people who want to achieve something exceptional in their athletic careers.
