Women are between 2 - 8 times more likely to incur a serious knee injury through sports than men. Roughly 65,000 - 70,000 ACL reconstructive surgeries are performed each year in this country.

As many as 70% of ACL-related injuries are considered preventable. Improper training techniques is cited as the primary reason for the mass increase in ACL injuries over the past number of years.
To combat this disastrous trend, Brad Taliancich of Team Xcelerate will be hosting several Summer clinics for St. Charles area young athletes during which he will showcase his proven speed, agility and strength techniques that have been used in the training programs of hundreds of young athletes both locally & nationally.
Attendees will learn proper acceleration and deceleration techniques, effective jump and landing mechanics as well as correct execution of basic and advanced strength training exercises such as squats.
Space will be limited.
Please contact Brad directly at 504-915-9716 for more information.
Look for Clinic information coming soon.
