FEEL STRONGER
Proper form utilizes your strongest muscles most effectively. Developing proper technique through your prescribed training will develop and activate these power sources.

GO FASTER
Developing stronger and better aligned muscle movements will produce more power when and where you need it.

GO FARTHER
More efficient movements require less energy. Your improved biomechanics will enable you to push your distance limits. 

GO LONGER
Eliminating unbalanced movements and overloaded muscles will reduce your risk of injury and allow you to train longer and more consistently.  

REDUCE INJURY
Poor form can cause imbalances and overcorrections, often leading to pain and discomfort. Improving your form allows you to balance the work across your body and alleviate troubled/painful movements.
