MAQ Sports Training

Strength, speed, hand-eye coordination, first step explosion and vertical progression are essential to dominating the court or field. But it’s not only about your body’s capabilities, it’s about what your mind believes you can accomplish. At MAQ Training, we give each and every athlete the confidence and training needed to take their performance to the next level with sport- and position-specific training.

First, we bring each athlete in for an evaluation. The evaluation is comprised of different exercises on and off the court/field that allows us to view the strengths and weaknesses of each athlete. Next, we comprise a sport and position specific program catered to the athletes individual needs. Finally, we will test each athlete in approximately 12 different areas, respective to their sport, including strength, speed, vertical and position specific drills. Approximately every 8 weeks, we re-test and comprise a detailed comprehensive spreadsheet of results, thus allowing you to see your athlete’s progress, along with what you are paying for.

We will continue to mentor athletes throughout their training process. Workouts are 1-hour and include, bunt not limited to, a dynamic warm-up, speed, quick twitch and isometric movements with upper/lower body symmetry, plyo’s, band resistance, core and also position specific work for their sport. Each athlete is given an individualized at home workout tailored to that athlete’s development. The at home workouts are meant to help aid in the progression of each athlete, working on consistent reps of development that they normally won’t address on their own.

Sports we train for include but are not limited to:

  • Boys Volleyball
  • Girls Volleyball
  • Basketball
  • Football
  • Soccer
  • Baseball
  • Softball
  • Lacrosse
  • Track & Field
  • Swimming
  • Wrestling

Every athlete has the potential to be great. Here at MAQ Training, we evaluate every athlete in retrospect to his or her sport and ability level. We then develop an individual dominating sport-specific progressively charted training program for that athlete. We use a dynamic approach to position-specific development. Most training sessions have an average of a 2-1 athlete to trainer ratio.  In today’s sports, it is crucial to develop all 360 (not sure how to put the little degree symbol after the 0) of the body and skill.  Being one dimensional will not be efficient in today’s sports.

Each session will have an isometric warm up specific to position movements in order to gain better functionality and maintain strength in key muscle groups.

We teach every athlete to gain perfect muscle memory and disposition in their movements through a series of drills focusing on the hips, IT band and more.

Our athletes then move through a segment of modern elite exercises and drill sets that include, but are not limited to, agility and strength training, as well as hand-eye coordination training.

Periodically or when necessary, live video will be recorded in order to further coach and develop the athletes individual progression.  Seeing yourself on the court and/or field is a very quick and effective way to see errors and how to correct them.

Our time in the gym is finished with position-specific resistance and progressive training on the court and/or field. Once the athlete has performed these exercises at 80% efficiency we move to the next level progression.

Below are some specific examples for a few of our sports.

  • Basketball: focusing on shooting, ball handling, precise foot placement, angles and movement in a real live atmosphere.
  • Football: focusing on individual position specific development, precise foot placement, angles and movement in a real live atmosphere. Athletes will also perform combine drill development such as the 40-yard dash, vertical jump and shuttle.  Along with resisted over speed training.
  • Volleyball: focusing on individual hitter, passer, setter development.  Resisted approaches and swings, lateral movement, reaction, heavy hands, balance and bosu ball work.  First step explosion, vertical, timing, precise foot placement, angles and movement in a real live atmosphere.

Each athlete will also receive a progression of at-home workouts needing no special equipment in order to enhance their development. This allows the athlete to train and strengthen 360 degrees of their body on and off the court.
