Ivyland, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/06/2015 -- Fitness programs for speed and agility training in Bucks County sometimes overlook young people, preferring to focus on older adolescents and adults. While Ivyland-based FITLIFE continues to offer personalized training to college students and adults with a variety of fitness needs, the company has also announced the introduction of youth fitness programs to their roster, for athletes as young as seven years old. With these programs, FITLIFE intends to continue to improve quality of life through physical performance training and to introduce the proven benefits of team sports to young people.
This spring, FITLIFE will coordinate two sports performance programs for young people ages 7 to 18. The first program, FITLIFE Youth Sport Performance program, is for young athletes aged 7 to 11. According to fitness experts, this age group is the ideal time in childhood development to focus on coordination skills and proper running mechanics. The program also covers building a solid foundation in strength and overall fitness. The second program, FITLIFE Pro Sports Performance, is for older adolescents and teenagers. Athletes between the ages of 12 and 18 will develop their speed, agility, power and strength so that they can hone their already-developed skills and advance to the next level of performance. This program is perfect for teenagers who wish to supplement a regular sports program or train during their off season. It is also suitable for teens who want to get in shape, lose weight or experience the benefits of team sports.
The benefits of youth sports participation are well-documented. According to a 2001 statewide study in North Carolina comparing the academic performance of athletes and non-athletes, athletes experience consistently higher GPAs and test scores and are less likely to have discipline issues. Furthermore, the graduation rate for athletes was over 6% higher than that of non-athletes. With this information in mind, FITLIFE encourages young people to start sports training early and continue to seek personal improvement.
In addition to its youth programs, FITLIFE offers myriad performance training programs designed to help people of all ages get in shape, stay in shape, and succeed in turning their obstacles into welcomed challenges. Their additional programs include private training, the MYZONE tracking system, a gym and spin studio in Warminster, and much more.
