For more than 18 years, Gamespeed has been the training center of choice for the Bay Area’s best baseball players. During that time, I have trained no less than 34 Major League Baseball professionals, as well as countless top high school prospects. Gamespeed-trained baseball players have gone on to compete at some of the nation’s best collegiate programs: UCLA, CSU Fullerton, CSU Long Beach, USC, UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine, Texas Tech, Vanderbilt, Dartmouth, San Diego State, Chabot, Ohlone, and Diablo Valley to name a few. Add to that some of the area’s top travel programs like EJ Sports, Nor Cal, Blankenship, the Gamers and others you see Gamespeed has a deep involvement in Bay area baseball. If you’re reading about a local top prospect in the newspaper, chances are he’s a Gamespeed athlete. I work with young baseball athletes trying to raise their game from the little league level to collegiate hopeful to aspiring professional.

At Gamespeed, baseball players raise their game by focusing on:

Speed         Throwing velocity            Hitting power          Fielding range        Bat speed & Bat Power

 

 

SOCCER

Gamespeed offers these athletes sport-specific training in speed, anaerobic conditioning, explosive agility and collision training to dramatically improve their game. Our athletes routinely make the Contra Costa Times’ Bay Area’s best lists, league all stars, national, state and major league teams.

TRACK & FIELD

Track and field athletes have a special place at Gamespeed. As a former national-caliber sprinter, I have a special connection as well as insights into developing these athletes. Past Gamespeed-trained athletes included two Olympians, two world champions, 26 state collegiate finalists, 42 college conference champions, 14 high school state qualifiers and finalists, as well as numerous youth Hershey and AAU national competitors. In the past few years, Gamespeed has been the training ground for some of the Bay Area’s top sprinters. At Gamespeed, track athletes learn the insights of professional level sprint mechanics and techniques as well as the mental preparation needed to be successful on the track. Track-specific training includes:

Block starts and acceleration      Sprint form and technique          Race management and strategy          Race specific conditioning: 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m Relays, Long Jump, Hurdles.

SOFTBALL

When the region’s top clubs want their best players to take their game to the next level, they know there’s only one place to train: Gamespeed. Sorcerer, Grapettes, Bears, Valley Stompers and many other local clubs send their athletes to train at Gamespeed. Over the past several years, our athletes have moved on to Arizona State, UC San Diego, San Diego State, UCLA, Cal Berkeley and many of the nation’s other top programs. In partnership with the region’s best private instructors, Gamespeed has developed specialty programs to develop and enhance the abilities of pitchers and slappers.

 

 

SWIMMING & WATER POLO

Our athletes are just as fast in the water as they are on land. At Gamespeed we develop customized “Dryland” training programs. These workouts have focused on developing joint strength and flexibility, powerful legs and hips and developing the proper anaerobic capacity needed for explosive bursts in water sports. The demands of swimming are closely related to those of sprinting and who better than Gamespeed to understand and implement the right exercises to raise your game. Recently we have been instrumental in training  a nationally ranked sixteen year old  2012 Olympic trials qualifier in the womens 200IM & 400IM and sent a waterpolo player on a full scholarship to Pepperdine.
