Within the last few years there has been a tremendous amount of growth within a wide variety of youth sports in the Los Angeles area. These sports include lacrosse, flag football, men and women’s soccer, track and field as well as baseball/softball. The participation has grown a ton which means the need for training has grown as well.

For all those sports speed as well as agility are essential for success. Really speed and agility are very similar in how they are trained as well as executed.

The Difference Between Speed And Agility

Speed and agility training drill

The difference between speed and agility really comes down to the direction the athlete is moving. When training speed it is more straight ahead or how fast someone can get from one point to another.

Where agility has more to do with moving side to side well as well as starting and stopping. In sports like track and field speed training and development is more of a focus because there is not as much change of direction. While field sports require more agility training in order to best suit the athlete’s needs.

Our training facility is in the Los Angeles area and we emphasize developing speed and agility in youth athletes.

We do this by putting an emphasis on coaching the technique of the movements needed in order to run fast, move side to side, accelerate/decelerate and much more. The reason why teaching the technique is so important is because not only does it improve performance but also improves the risk for injury.

Injury Prevention Training

Injury Prevention Training To Promote Improved Athletic Performance

An important part of our athlete performance programs is adding injury prevention training. It is important for athletes to learn at a young age the correct movement patterns to stay healthy. The comparison is to building a house, the most important thing is to build a great foundation before building a new house.

Building an athlete is very, where as a coach it is important to build a great foundation of movement before adding power, strength, speed, agility, etc. So during each session we emphasize the ability for the athletes to control the body to reduce risk of injury.

During many of the sessions at The Performance Lab the actual movements are captured with high speed cameras like you can see above. This gives the power to the trainers to slow down fast movements in order to pinpoint every action the athlete is doing.

This is important during speed and agility drills or explosive exercises to capture specific movements of the athletes. Then the coach is able to really show what the athlete can do in order to get better.
