Why are you guys more expensive?

One question I get from a lot of interested parents with regards to our sports performance training is this:

Why are you guys so much more expensive than other sport-performance programs?

It’s a great question. And rather than avoid it, or act like price isn’t an issue, I’d love to confront it head-on here in a blog post.

To begin, I hate to say it, but we need to look at quality versus quantity.

If you’re paying $10 or $12 for a session, do you really feel like that’s a high-quality coaching program?

Do you really feel as though your child is going to get the time and attention they deserve if they’re thrown into a class with 10, 15 or even 20 other kids – often of varying ages and abilities?

Let me be frank: I have no desire to compete with anyone on price. If you want cheap, you could get a $20 membership at Cardinal Fitness and go wild.

Instead, at IFAST, we pride ourselves on quality.

Every young athlete who walks in the door gets a total-body assessment.  This often takes close to an hour as we assess their posture, movement capacity, injury history, etc.

After we’ve determined what they do (and don’t!) do well, it’s program design time.  Each and every athlete gets put on a program that’s not only custom-designed to address their inefficiencies and imbalances, but one that will help them improve at their specific sport while simultaneously developing them as a well-rounded athlete to boot.

After all, good movement is good movement – it’s no wonder that good all-round athletes are also the ones who are most successful in a wide-variety of sports!

Finally, coaching may be the most critical factor in the entire process.  We ensure that there are never more than 3 or 4 athletes working at one time with a coach.  Doing so ensures that everyone who comes into IFAST is coached and cued appropriately, allowing them to truly maximize their potential.

At the end of the day, do you really want the cheapest option for your child?

Are you prepared to sacrifice the quality of their training for quantity?

If the only thing you’re basing your decision on is price, then I’ll admit, IFAST probably isn’t the ideal fit for you and your child.

However, if your goal is to give you child the best possible training and coaching experience, we may be the perfect fit!

All the best

Thanks to Dave Tate and EliteFTS!

As you may have been aware, our Prowler was stolen not too long ago.  Since then we’ve done exceptionally well with out it, but we did miss it because it’s such a useful tool for our sports-specific conditioning and weight loss programs.

Even our members who are not so fond of some fat loss exercises think the EliteFTS Prowler is a blast.

Well, anyway, Mike Robertson made a call to Dave Tate and asked if he could rush us new Prowler for our appearance on the local morning news show (December 15th on Fox 59).

Dave came through for us in a very big way.

The great thing about the Prowler is that it can be used in a number of ways making it a very versitile tool.

We’ve used it for:

Aerobic training

Speed training

Heavy pushes and pulls for strength or muscular endurance

Anaerobic Interval Training

Fat Loss Programs

Recovery between maximal effort or muscular endurance training session

General restoration

We put it right to good use as soon as we got it.

Thanks again to Dave Tate and Elite Fitness Systems for helping us out.
