NOTE- This information is being left up despite being outdated now to outline a more detailed camp that Apex Athletic Performance can again put on for your team, club or community.  Please give the information below a read to see how a more detailed camp is available. Much more than just doing drills. Not many camps also entail the classroom portion that we included.

The Elkhart Lake Spring Sports Academy presented by Apex Athletic Performance is an annual week-long camp with full days of general and sports-specific field training with classroom sessions.  This camp will allow a structured, safe, and highly innovative training environment for numerous sports, with many local recreational activities available for non-participating families of the student-athletes/athletes in attendance.  This cutting-edge training is something that will give our clients an “extra edge” in the competitive arena. Targeted athletes will primarily consist of grade to high school range student-athletes, but some college athletes, and adult recreational and club level sports training will also be invited and included.

 

Sports to be covered:

Soccer

Track and Field

Cycling

Baseball

Softball

Wrestling

Golf

Tennis

Football

Basketball

Running

Volleyball

Combined summer dryland training for ice hockey, swimming, XC skiing

Cheerleading

Rugby

 

Every day will have structured “two-a-day” sessions, with a dynamic warm-up, followed by skilled sessions on improving physical requirements for each sport. Video capture programs like Dart Fish will be available to break down and evaluate techniques.   Between sessions, classroom break-out programs (listed below) will educate student-athletes on various training needs that are not covered in traditional camps or in their respective sporting programs. Every session and day will finish with a cool-down program.  Objective screening and testing will be seen at the onset of the week with a retest on the last day of the week.   

 

College recruitment possibilities may also be seen as scouts for regional NCAA Division IAA/FCS and smaller colleges/universities are being invited for the Friday afternoon combine. Sports-specific massage therapy evening sessions can also be scheduled by appointment only through affiliated facilities.   The Osthoff will have morning and evening sports-specific Yoga sessions for participants for a nominal extra fee. 

 

 

Classroom sessions will include:

 

Training Methods- The latest in functional training methods will be discussed with “hands-on” content

 

The Concerns and Negative Issues of Performance Enhancement Drugs- The illegal and unethical aspects of PEDs will be discussed along with the numerous negative side effects. 

 

Concussion Awareness and Recovery- A class that every coach, athlete, and parent should attend.  How to discern if a concussion is present, the steps to recovery, possible concussion prevention, and the dangers of ignoring the signs will be discussed in depth.  

 

Proper Recovery Methods- Recovery options, recovery nutrition, rest, and “active rest” with their benefits will be covered

 

Sports Psychology- Once you get the sports skills, all that separates you from the best of the best is how the mind and body work together.  This underutilized aspect of your game will be covered

 

Visual Acuity Training- Hand-eye coordination is an often-used phrase.  You can train your eyes to help see a pitch coming at you with more accuracy; depth perception can be sharpened, along with peripheral vision and visual reaction training.

 

Periodization of Your Training- You can't train at 100% all the time.  This session will discuss how to set your season goals and work backward from that to ensure you peak athletically at the right time and you don’t suffer burnout.

 

Sports Nutrition- Nutrition helps you with performance, weight control recovery, and injury prevention. The ins and outs of sports nutrition will be covered.

 

Heart Rate Monitor Training- This device more than anything else revolutionized training when they were introduced. If you are a serious athlete, you must use a heart rate monitor to get the best out of your
training and performance and take your training to the next level.  We’ll discuss features that some models have, how to find your limits, and how to digest and analyze the resultant data. 

 

Rehabilitation Discussion- Sports will result in injuries.  We’ll discuss some self-diagnosis and home treatment options, along with when to seek medical attention and what to expect in certain areas of care.

 

Weight Room Technique- Weight rooms can be the site of great improvement or season and career-ending injuries.  Here is a primer on how to safely use the weight room with the best benefit and what lifts are best for your sport.

 

How to Keep a Training Log- Training logs combine everything discussed prior on heart rate monitor data, training periodization, and nutrition allowing you to ensure beneficial and safe training programs are followed.  We’ll talk about what aspects you should log, different formats, online options, etc.
