Anybody can benefit from our system. We work with athletes in middle school to high school to college to semi-pro to professional levels alongside weekend warriors; recognizing the individual needs and goals of each group.
Can TDAE help with nutrition?
Fundamental nutrition guidance is essential for reaching your performance goals. TDAE's knowledgeable staff can help you analyze your eating habits and help you to craft an eating strategy that optimizes your performance training.
You keep referring to “movement patterns” and “corrective exercises”, what do you mean by that?
Ideal movement patterns refer to how the musculoskeletal system was meant to move efficiently and effectively in a manner to sustain stresses to the body; such as sport and competition.
Corrective exercises refer to a portion of our performance training that discourages the client’s body from moving with inefficient patterns. Inefficient movement patterns can and often will lead to unnecessary non-contact injuries and our corrective exercises will “re-teach” our client’s body to move in a more ideal pattern.
