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 early
- relying on monotonous and cookie-cutter practices
- being pushed to perform before they're prepared for it
Intensity without a resilient foundation is a growing problem. Sports have never been more intense and our athletes have never been less prepared.
When robust foundations aren't built early, training slowly becomes more of a detriment and less of a benefit.
There's nothing wrong with wanting your child to succeed, we all do.
But prioritizing performance over preparedness can quickly derail your young athlete's chances of success in sports.
Durable athletes perform better. The quality of their athletic foundation will determine the height of their athletic ceiling.
Training at Valesco compounds over time, meaning athletes can progress exponentially as sports get more demanding.
