High Performance

The Southern Academy of Sport Athlete High Performance Program provides all the individualised support an athlete would expect to receive at a World Class sporting organisation.

The High Performance membership is designed with three people in mind:

Athletes already competing at an elite level.
Athletes aspiring to compete at an elite level, who wish to optimise their chances by receiving fully individualised and comprehensive athletic development support.
Individuals that are high performing in other aspects of their life (e.g. work & business), and wish to extend their high performance principles to sport and competition.

Each High Performance membership is uniquely designed to meet the needs of the individual, and will include a bespoke combination of:

Strength and Conditioning program design and coaching.
Individual Mindset coaching.
Individual Nutrition coaching.
Physiotherapy and Soft Tissue Massage.
Sports Science services, including GPS performance analysis, performance testing, blood lactate and glucose monitoring.

The High Performance membership is £250 per month (£200 per month for full time students). Contact us to discuss your needs, or read below for further detail.

Think clearly under pressure.
Develop a growth mindset.
Deal with and learn from failure.

RECOVERY AND REHAB

The aims of our recovery and rehab program are two-fold:

To reduce the risk of injury by introducing athletes to effective recovery methods.
To manage injuries when they do occur, and to rehabilitate the athlete back to competition.

All athletes undergo injury screening and testing. Injured athletes have access to a weekly Physiotherapy. A team of practitioners work together to rehabilitate the athlete, with Physiotherapists, Masseurs and Strength Coaches all playing a part in designing and delivering a unique program.

NUTRITION

Nutrition coaching for both health and performance are provided using a combination of one to one, online learning and group workshops by our Precision Nutrition qualified coaches. Athletes are given the knowledge and strategies to put into action healthy eating that will support their daily training as well as when they are travelling for sport and game day nutrition.
