Why Undertake Strength and Conditioning?
Strength and conditioning at King’s follows a fully athlete-centred approach. We are based in the Sports Hall complex with access to other facilities and equipment, depending on the needs of the pupils and session.
Our mission statement is to enhance all physiological and psychological aspects of the child, allowing for full realisation of athletic potential. We also aim to reduce the risk of injury and provide an active and healthy legacy.
Improve Your Performance
Each of the elements listed above are broken down again so that they are appropriately challenging to the individual at an age or developmental appropriate level. Sessions to improve these may include sprinting, gym work, pool conditioning and circuit training, on top of any activity undertaken within the games curriculum.
If we are able to challenge and improve the skill level of these elements, the performances that can be achieved in a competitive environment will have the basis from which to further develop.
We aim to provide opportunities to practise and improve all elements for all pupils, with guidance available on request, either in games sessions or outside of them.
