Coach Steve's Gear List For Developing Speed in Youth Athletes
(Weights are used once a youth athlete reaches puberty since it is reported that using weights too early could put too much strain on young muscles, tendons, and areas of cartilage that have not yet turned in the bone - growth plates. There's other gear that we use at a practice that has not been listed because they require in-person coaching supervision for safe use. )
