What are you waiting for?

Watching the World Series has been just a blast, seeing as how the Phillies are up 3 games to 1. But one of the most interesting things has been the defense on both sides. In game 3 we saw a game to remember: a 45 year old pitcher Jamie Moyer made one heck of a play when diving to try and get Carl Crawford out and BJ Upton stole his way from first all the way to home!!

The speed at which these guys play the game is amazing. But to prepare for this type of play, players from both teams have been training in-season, post-season and they really hit it hard in the off-season. There is so much design that must go into a training program to make sure you are the best. And then after that, the best of the best.

So I ask, are you training to be the best? Or are you taking a "whatever" approach to baseball training? Right now at Pair & Marotta Sport Performance we are just finishing up our cycle where we have been training to add muscle. Our next phase is strength/speed focus. We are going to be doing a lot of speed training. Here is a quick sample of the type of stuff we have been doing.



If you aren't training like this, then you should be. It's fun, it's effective, and we guarantee you'll be faster. What are you waiting for? Stop by and sign up today!!

Picking Up the Pieces and Looking to 2009

With the World Series starting tonight, the two best teams in Major League Baseball will square off over the next week. What will be left is one team riding a float down main street of their respective city, and the other picking up the pieces of a season that couldn't be finished.

And just like you need to be doing, they are soon going to start preparing for the 2009 season. They will start getting stronger, faster, quicker and more powerful. Because they want to last through the 2009 post-season.

A strength and conditioning program isn't just for the elite. It is for those who desire to be elite. It is for those who want nothing less than the most out of their body, and it is for those who don't consider the season a success unless they win their last game.

Pair & Marotta Sports Performance has the program you and your team needs. Our facility is specifically designed and set up to accommodate teams of over 25 athletes. If you want there to be no question in who the best team on the field is, you will find your self in here.

In order to be the best, you've got to train with purpose and with intensity. Or as we like to say, you need to Train Like You Mean It.
