Full-Stride Performance

For our Tuesday Tracker this week, we are highlighting athlete - Annalyn Batchelor🔥

Annalyn is a volleyball player, plays middle and at the age of 12 has already put herself into great opportunities training with college coaches. 💪

We want to wish her the best of luck today as she is heading to tryout for . She will be competing against 199 other athletes who travel nationally for a chance at make the 72 athlete cut.

A great challenge but after all the hard work she has put in at FSP, we have no doubt she will make a strong case for one of those spots!

Sideline Interviews are here! 🎤

For our first athlete interview, we asked hockey player Sachin Sivadas (.hockey42 ) a few questions.

This new segment is getting our athletes thoughts, to help you get a better idea of what you could be experiencing in your training at FSP.

Film Friday session anyone? 🎥

Grab your popcorn, and sit in on the start of one of our classes, before making your way in for your free trial of course!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COACH CHRIS! 🎉

Just another example of the amazing community that has been built up at FSP. We have the best athletes who support not only us on our special day but each other, day in and day out!

We hope it was a great day Coach Chris and we're so glad we could spend it with you. No better place to be at! 😎

TUTORIAL THURSDAY! 🚨

For this week we have our athletes demonstrating the bench press! 💪

The bench press is more than just a chest exercise—for athletes, it’s a total-body expression of horizontal force output. If you aren’t locking in your setup, you’re leaving power (and weight) on the table.

Fix your form and maximize your power transfer with these three non-negotiables:

1. Create a Solid Base (Leg Drive): Don’t let your legs hang loose. Drive your feet hard into the floor, push your knees out, and squeeze your glutes. This creates a rigid platform that transfers energy from the ground up through the bar.

2. Pack Your Scapula: Pull your shoulder blades down and back into the bench (think about pinching a coin between them). This protects your shoulders and creates a shorter, more stable path for the weight.

3. Control the Eccentric & Tear the Bar: Don't just let the bar drop. Control it on the way down, aiming for your lower sternum. As you press up, imagine trying to bend or tear the barbell apart to instantly engage your lats and triceps.

Why it matters for performance:

A stable, technically sound bench press trains your nervous system to produce maximum force while protecting your shoulders for your sport.

The Georgia heat do be like that.. Stay hydrated.
