Our Young Athletes Are Underprepared
70% of kids are quitting sports by the age of 13.
Not because they lack talent, but because burnout, fatigue, and chronic pain leave them drained and uninterested.
- specializing earlier than ever
- dealing with nagging pain or fatigue that's treated as "normal"
- being pushed to perform before they're prepared to adapt
Sports have never been more intense, but that's not the issue. Intensity without a resilient foundation is the true problem at hand.
When resilience is not built early, training slowly becomes more and more detrimental.
There's nothing wrong with wanting your child to succeed, we all do.
Prioritizing performance over preparedness can quickly derail your young athlete's chances of success in sports.
Sustained, high-level performance is rooted in resilience and versatility. Specializing in one sport at an early age may get them ahead now, but the chances of them STAYING ahead are slim.
Training at Valesco compounds over time, meaning athletes can progress exponentially even as sports get more demanding.
