Ōtūmoetai College Athletes: Unleash Your Potential with Strength & Conditioning (S&C)!
Here at Ōtūmoetai College, we’re dedicated to helping you become the best athlete you can be. While honing skills and training hard are essential, a strong foundation is crucial for success. That’s where S&C comes in!
S&C isn’t just about lifting weights. It’s a tailored program designed to build your strength, power, endurance, and agility – all the physical tools you need to dominate your sport. It can help you:
* Reduce injury risk: By strengthening your muscles and improving your movement mechanics, S&C helps you avoid setbacks.
* Boost performance: Increased strength and power translates to an increase in performance regardless of the sports or position; Stronger, Faster, more Powerful.
* Enhance recovery: S&C improves your body’s ability to bounce back from intense training sessions, keeping you at peak performance.
Ready to take your game to the next level? Make sure you attend our S&C program here at Ōtūmoetai College!
See the Term 3 timetable (Weeks 7-10).
