IYCA – Long Term Athlete Development
Discover the Scientifically Proven Method for Delivering Extraordinary, Lifelong Performance Enhancement to Young Athletes…
Finally, Youth Performance Coaches Have Access to a Long Term Athletic Development System to Help Young Athletes Perform at the Highest Levels, Avoid Injury, and Eliminate Burn Out!
You already know that a Long Term Athletic Development training model produces the best, longest-lasting results, but do you know the scientific basis of this model or how to actually implement it for each developmental level?
Unfortunately, outside of the International Youth Conditioning Association and a few select resources, there isn’t much quality information out there on Long Term Athletic Development.
People talk about it’s importance. Others show graphics and models. But not many are teaching how to apply these principles in a practical way.
Many coaches and trainers use watered-down training programs designed for collegiate or professional level athletes or throw around the term LTAD as an excuse for poor programming. That’s unfortunate!
Athletes and their parents are overwhelmed with messages from well-meaning but misinformed sources saying their athletes will get left behind if they aren’t specializing early. That fear, combined with coaching from unqualified trainers, has led to a rise in injuries and burnout among our young athletes.
Young athletes deserve better!
And it starts with you…
You need to know that the world-class coaches involved in the IYCA have all faced these same battles.
To help these young athletes, you first have to be able to communicate to the parents and coaches why your approach is the RIGHT METHOD OF TRAINING!
Now, you can have the power of the International Youth Conditioning Association in your corner. A huge reason that we’ve created the Long Term Athlete Development Roadmap is to give you the tools, knowledge, and skills to help you stand out from the crowd.
This is not just another Long Term Athletic Develop model – this is a practical guide to LTAD. We’ll give you a complete roadmap for training athletes throughout their entire career from the beginning foundations to helping them achieve peak performance.
More importantly, you’ll understand the scientific concepts that underscore LTAD. You’ll understand WHY and HOW to program for each developmental level rather than just throwing together a bunch of drills and calling it LTAD. We won’t just talk about concepts, we’ll teach you exactly what to do at each stage of development.
What it really takes to create GREAT athletes…
If developing great athletes was easy, everyone would be exceptional.
As coaches, if we hope to create great athletes, or even physically literate adults who love to move, our approach must be based on the concepts of LTAD and we need to have tools in place to take athletes through each stage of development.
Just like a baby must learn to roll over before crawling, crawl before standing, stand before walking, and walk before running, your athletes need to build a foundation for elite level athletic performance before they can reach their maximum potential.
When athletes specialize early and skip critical steps in building this foundation, they are at extreme risk for injury and burnout.
Unfortunately, building that foundation early isn’t always sexy, and many coaches want to skip steps in an effort to get quick results.
The trends are shifting as more and more coaches and parents are learning about LTAD, but they simply don’t understand the concepts or how to implement them in real life.
Yet, even the best coaches in the world are on to the concept.
Urban Meyer, famous football coach at The Ohio State University, recruits mostly multi-sport athletes. In fact, some reports show that a whopping 89% of his football recruits are multi-sport athletes.
