Our mission is to empower Norfolk Academy students to increase their overall fitness level, athleticism and durability while developing their character, work ethic and mental toughness through intelligent physical training.

We provide a fun, challenging, encouraging and safe environment for our students.  We provide competent instruction and well thought out training plans that are founded on scientifically based principles.  Following in line with our school and athletic philosophies, we believe that the continued development of physical fitness and athleticism will greatly benefit each student’s ability to mature emotionally as well as physically.  Regardless of fitness level or experience, we are committed to assisting students to reach their full athletic potential. 

“We help our Bulldogs be their best.”

Our strength and conditioning program begins with our middle school physical education curriculum.  During these years, we teach foundational fitness principles and techniques at an intentionally methodical pace.  As our students and athletes improve within our program, we give them more and more opportunities to grow and improve.  During the school year, we will offer both in-season team workouts and out-of-season individual workouts for our student-athletes.  In the summer months, student-athletes can take advantage of our afternoon and early evening training offerings geared specifically for improved sports performance. 

• ·         Progressive Overload – Over time, our athletes will increase training stimuli (load, volume, intensity, etc.) in a consistent and methodical way.
• ·         Ground Based Exercises – Our athletes will perform exercises where force is applied through their feet to the ground.
• ·         3 Dimensional Movements – Our athletes will train functionally on all three planes (up-down, side-side, forward-backward),  
• ·         Multi Joint Actions – Our athletes will utilize multi-joint exercises that require proper neuromuscular recruitment and will efficiently improve functional strength.
• ·         Explosive Movements – Our athletes will become more powerful by utilizing explosive exercises that emphasizes the rate of speed in which force is applied.
