How Youth Performance Training Boosts Young Athletes—and Why It’s Coming to Well Street Fitness in June 2025

At Well Street Fitness, we’re always looking for ways to help our community thrive through fitness, no matter the age. That’s why we’re beyond excited to announce that starting June 2025, we’re teaming up with Parisi Speed School to bring top-tier youth performance training right here to our gym. This partnership will deliver a proven system designed to help kids ages 7-18 get faster, stronger, and more confident—whether they’re chasing sports dreams or just learning to love movement. So, what’s youth performance training all about, and why should you care? Let’s break down the benefits and give you a sneak peek at what’s coming to Well Street Fitness next summer.

What Is Youth Performance Training?

Think of youth performance training as fitness built just for kids—not watered-down adult workouts, but a smart, safe approach to developing athletic skills like speed, strength, agility, and coordination. Programs like Parisi Speed School’s are crafted with young bodies in mind, focusing on proper movement, physical growth, and fun. With over 1 million athletes trained worldwide, Parisi’s system has turned beginners into standouts and even prepped pros for the big leagues. Come June 2025, we’ll be bringing that magic to Well Street Fitness.

The Benefits of Youth Performance Training

Why get excited about this for your young athlete? Here’s what youth performance training can do—and what we can’t wait to offer starting next summer:

1. Lays a Strong Athletic Foundation

Kids’ bodies are still growing, and training them right sets them up for success. Performance training builds muscle, bone, and joint strength safely, creating a base for any sport. Parisi’s Jump Start program (ages 7-11), for example, uses bodyweight drills to boost coordination and power—think better soccer kicks or smoother basketball dribbles, all starting with the basics.

2. Unlocks Speed and Explosiveness

Speed isn’t just a gift—it’s a skill you can train. Parisi’s famous speed drills, like linear sprints and agility ladders, teach kids how to move faster and smarter. Whether it’s outrunning a defender or jumping higher in volleyball, this training gives kids a real edge. We’re counting down to June 2025 to bring that speed boost to Well Street Fitness.

3. Keeps Injuries at Bay

Injuries can derail a young athlete’s season—or their confidence. Performance training focuses on proper mechanics and resilience, cutting down on sprains and strains. Parisi’s Active Dynamic Warm-Up and strength routines (backed by youth fitness experts) build tough, adaptable bodies. It’s a game-changer we’re thrilled to introduce next summer.

4. Builds Confidence That Sticks

There’s nothing like watching a kid realize they’re stronger or faster than they thought. Performance training isn’t just physical—it’s a confidence builder. Parisi’s approach creates a supportive vibe where kids grow into their potential. At Well Street Fitness, we can’t wait to see those proud smiles starting in June 2025.

5. Sparks a Love for Fitness

Early training isn’t just about sports today—it’s about health tomorrow. By making fitness fun and rewarding, programs like Parisi’s Game Time (for non-athletes) get kids hooked on moving. We’re excited to plant those seeds for lifelong healthy habits right here at our gym.
