Speed Development for Youth Athletes

[@YoooItsRex]

As a baseball instructor, I can confirm that an athlete’s mechanics gets better when they get stronger. A strong body organizes itself in a way that allows them to move as efficiently as possible. A weak body will compensate and risk injury.

Spot on

[@deehenry6192]

Well said.

[@Locosalazar1322]

This is the type of video I really needed….. my kid just got into a couple sports this past year, in her sports right now they teach them the basics of that sport…. And now that I got her in the gym I’ve been struggling with how to train her…. But man thanks this video is actually really good and not a bunch of useless junk like other videos.

[@mitchlockhart5505]

My 9 year old told me last night he wants to get faster. We start today and this helps a ton. ❤

[@justtestingonce]

Are you going to use any weight training?

[@danielsaddyful]

How did your son go with the training?

[@cocoablini]

It's just logic and this video is DEAD ON. I coach youth cross country and not sprinters but I look at sprint mechanics from OTA to help the more endurance runners get stronger in their gait mechanics. Thank God somebody said it!

[@elliottwilson3993]

I’m love what you said here. I’m working on my doctorate in physical therapy and i say all the time let’s get basic movements down first !!

[@bradkuykendall9174]

At what age a boy should start running drills and strength increasing exercises?

[@nicklemkerd]

They can start as early as 7 or 8. Part of it is age appropriate and making sure they eat right and have proper form

[@supcoachcal]

ooh man! wheres your certification program? Im ready!

[@beccahayner8220]

How soon before you generally begin to see improvements in the child's speed? I'm organizing a youth speed and agility class but am not sure how many weeks to offer it for. I want to supply enough time to help them get stronger first and then build upon that but am not sure how many weeks would be most beneficial. Also, what baseline tests do you recommend to measure progress for speed and agility?

Great video

What do you consider youth? 10 and under? Is this based on age and body development? Can a youth program help 14 year olds who are like 10 years old when it comes to exercise, speed, strength? Or what could these sort of teenagers follow? Thanks

[@omarelfarouk818]

but according to ISSA children can weight lift or even do olympic lifts

[@JT-1979]

If done with good form, is back squatting, front squatting, nordics, etc…, ok for younger athletes to build their strength? Emphasis on “good” form!!

[@robertmciver817]

What do you mean by younger? What age? These are safe if preceded with learning to use body weight first. Then, using high reps and low weight would be the next step. Take your time and ingrain good form.

[@jm446]

No plyometrics is much better for explosion in athletes. If you squat do a front squat with no lower than 90° squat.. never go below knee joint integrity

[@robertmciver817]

His question was “ to build strength “. So to answer his question, yes, you can teach squatting, front squatting, etc.,,as long as simple progressions are followed and good form is ingrained.. Plyometrics builds power. Both are beneficial to athletes.

[@nickwojtow6787]

Any kids under say 13 dont need weight training with barbells or dumbbells etc. There is so much you can do with bodyweight, boxes, plyos, obstacle stuff like rope climbing, pull up bar workouts etc.

[@nickwojtow6787]

@@jm446 And the below the knee stuff has been totally debunked. Form and weight are most important and its extremely beneficial to safely and properly go as$ to grass in squatting. Watch the knees over toes guy on youtube! 👍🏻

Why do I need to train a 10 year old🤔

[@beabossc]

I want to train mine he’s 10, have you seen that kid Blaze he trains believe you my god he trains. I’m not sure if it’s this program exactly but at 10 he runs a 4.2 40 electronic that boy is badd. My son is good too hell of a running back without any training 🧐 but if there is any untapped mechanics he’s not using then I think it would be a disservice and disadvantage and also creates a delay in full potential. I believe the earlier these tools can be acquired the more leverage the young athlete can have amongst his or her peers. The only reservation I would have is my son losing the love of the sport due to the constant training so early on, but on the flip side of that just might love it more due to progress and results. That’s my spill/opinion on why and or why not 🤷🏾‍♂️ best of luck to you sir.

[@primetimepapi8976]

Yea your child is at the end of the bench or got cut

[@deleonjl]

Yup. My son is 12. He is slow his position is corner back but he doesn’t get much playing time. So we are speed training at home. This is why you need to train your 10 year old. Had I trained him at 10 and 11. He would be fast. He doesn’t run good. His running form is ackward. Due from being in the band since he was 8 but this year he wanted to do football in the 7th grade Needless to say he is a bit behind and we have a lot of work to do Thank you for the video.

[@swank171]

Same reason you teach them math and science. Cause being able to run fast is essential to your life as a kid. Also proper mechanics prevent injuries.
