Speed

“Speed refers to the point in time in which the individual, performing a certain task, can no longer accelerate. At this point they have reached their highest potential for movement.”

Once we take movement, coordinate that movement, and strengthen the coordinated movement we are ready to execute that movement faster. Speed is expressed in one dimension: time. There are however many expressions or components of speed. The Pathway to Peak Performance will determine the particular component of speed that an individual need concern themselves with. We also will address these factors;
