Speed doesn’t improve by accident.

Acceleration Academy gives athletes dedicated training focused on:

⚡ Sprint mechanics
⚡ Force application
⚡ Plyometrics
⚡ Age-appropriate strength training

Every athlete begins with an Athlete Analysis so we can identify where they currently stand and build a clear roadmap for improvement. From there, we track their performance every session so they can see the progress - not just feel it.

Enrollment closes September 30.

DM us “SPEED” to book your athlete’s analysis and learn more.

15 pounds stronger - and it translated to the mound. 📈⚾️

Brogan Dent, a sophomore LHP at Concord University, committed to his development at LAB this summer.

Through consistent training, Brogan added 15 pounds of muscle, building the strength and power needed to become more explosive on the mound.

The goal was never just to gain weight - it was to build functional size that would improve his performance as a pitcher.

Brogan put in the work all summer, and the results are showing when he takes the ball.

Keep working, Brogan! 💪

🏆 AUGUST ATHLETE OF THE MONTH: NOAH WOMELDORF 🏆

Noah earned this one.

As the winner of our August Back-to-School Challenge, he consistently showed up 3–5 days per week, brought his friends along, attacked every session relentlessly, and set multiple PRs throughout the month.

Noah was an absolute beast all August, and his results reflected the work he put in.

Congratulations, Noah! Keep setting the standard! 💪🔥

Most parents fall right into the In-Season Speed Trap without realizing it.

You spend all summer paying for speed training, camps, and sessions to build explosive power. But the second the season starts and dedicated speed work stops?

The clock starts ticking backward. ⏳

Here’s the reality:
⚡ Speed has a short shelf life. Research shows athletes begin losing measurable speed and power within 2–3 weeks of stopping training.
📉 The compound loss: A kid running 20 mph in August drops to 18.5 mph by mid-September. Repeat that cycle every year, and by junior year, they are stuck at 19 mph instead of hitting 21 mph.
🚫 In-season isn’t offseason. Keeping your speed doesn't mean grinding until you're sore before a game. It takes low-volume, smart micro-dosing to preserve your power, keep legs fresh for the 4th quarter, and prevent nagging injuries.

Don't let October steal the gains you built in July.

Your athlete doesn't need more of the same.

If they play baseball, basketball, soccer, or any other sport year-round, they're already getting plenty of sport-specific movement.

But athletic development is bigger than the sport.

Young athletes need to learn how to move in different ways, produce and absorb force, control their bodies, and solve movement problems their sport doesn't always give them.

That's the value of performance training.

We're not trying to replace their sport. We're trying to build the athlete underneath it.

Because a better athlete gives you a better foundation to build a better player.

Don't just build a better player. Build a better athlete. 💪
