Performance Center
About the Peak Performance Center/RIPPED (Reach Individual Peak Performance Every Day):
Athletes will train with the goal of reaching their peak performance. With a theme of ‘Be More Ready’ and a focus on developing the holistic athlete, RIPPED offers all levels of athletes the opportunity to develop their physical and mental skills through various strength and conditioning techniques. RIPPED is focused on reducing muscular imbalances with the goal of reducing the risk of sports injuries.
The ultimate goal of RIPPED is to teach the athletes while they train. Athletes’ understanding of the why of the exercises increases the motivation to execute them. We want all the athletes to develop their physical strength, mobility, and athletic mindset in order to be the best at their sport.
Workouts include a functional warm-up, mobility training (with a focus on ankle, hips, and shoulders), core activation, strength exercises, and flexibility training.
