The fastest way to become a better athlete starts with an honest assessment of the athlete’s current abilities, whatever their age or sport. Without the first step of the athletic performance evaluation, it is impossible to realistically create sports performance goals and monitor progress.
The Sports Performance Evaluation is critical to every athlete in our program for four main reasons:
The evaluation aspect of our program is what we consider the most important. Without understanding individual strengths and weaknesses of you or your athlete, you cannot be sure that you are working on the right needs in training.
The athletic performance evaluation is a mandatory event for every athlete that enters the Parisi Program. During the sports performance evaluation, the athletes will be taught our signature dynamic warmup, be examined during our Running Analysis Procedures, and tested in a battery of physical speed and strength tests. After the sports performance evaluation, every athlete and parent will meet individually with the Head Evaluator and review the results. At that time, the parent and athlete have the correct information to select the appropriate program to fit his or her needs.
At Parisi Speed School, we place a high priority on tracking athletic performance. We strive to stay in touch with parents on how young athletes are improving. We believe that watching their hard work pay off provides our athletes with a sense of accomplishment and confidence that will stay with them long-term.
What is a Parisi Workout?
A Parisi Workout is a personal challenge to be as great as you want to be. It is your chance to create your own vision of the future and make it happen. Every Champion had the courage to be the best. Doing anything less than your best is a waste of your gifts.
A Parisi Workout is a chance to overcome adversity. It is a chance to learn how to take a setback and turn it into a learning experience. This is the hallmark of a coachable athlete, and a successful person. Adversity causes some athletes to break, and champions to break records.
A Parisi Workout is a personal experience that will last a lifetime. You will always remember many things about Parisi. You will remember the improvement you made in your fitness, the coaches you had, and how fun training was. Most importantly, you will always remember you didn't just feel better … you felt better about yourself!
