Our speed training is not just for sprinters. Just ask San Ramon Valley pole vaulter Lou Smith. Starting in August of last year Lou dedicated himself to improving his speed. Undergoing a weekly “pole vault speed program” in our gym coupled with homework assignments aimed at front side mechanics, tempo, acceleration, core and upper body strength he has transformed himself into a force to be reckoned with and “vaulted” himself into the states elite rankings at no. 6. and leads the NCS by almost a foot.
In his first competition he set a meet record at the Eastbay Invitational with a vault of 15’1″. A whopping seven inch improvement over his previous personal best.
