Real Stories from PC Athletes.

Jose Bautista - MLB

“Over 6 MLB seasons, Coach Ryan helped me stay healthy year round. His knowledge on strength and power development is world class, and his ability to rehab injuries got me back to top form after a serious injury in-season"

What is the PC Method?

Let's face it - sports injuries aren't going down... 

Even with all the scientific advances, there's still a problem being ignored.

Most training programs focus on getting you bigger, faster, and stronger... but not getting more resilient or moving better. 

That's where Physical Culture comes in - We are Tampa Bay's Only fully certified Functional Range Systems provider

(Kinstretch, FRC, FRA, FR, Internal Strength Model-ISM) ​​​​

That means you'll become more durable and move better, so you're less likely to get injured. 

PERFORMANCE TRAINING IS THE SECRET TO ATHLETIC SUCCESS

 WHERE PRO ATHLETES LEARN TO
MOVE, TRAIN, EAT AND RECOVER

TRAINING SHOULD HAVE A PURPOSE​​

  •        Develop greater mobility, body control, and  connective tissue resilience.

  •        Enhance speed through biomechanics & sprinting ability.

  •        Increase explosiveness through Russian influenced Programming.

  •        Develop Maximal Strength + Power with Triphasic & Soviet training secrets.

  •        Optimize Aerobic + Power Endurance with Advanced conditioning methods.

  •        Accelerate Recovery through down regulation strategies. 

  •        Manage stress & recovery better In-season.      

Random "tough" workouts only look good on instagram and lead to poor results. Once you become a PC Athlete, you'll learn how to:

We've created a simple - effective system that produces world class results.

HERE'S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM EVERY TRAINING SESSION:

01.

         

Each athlete undergoes a thorough movement evaluation (FMS and FRA).

With these assessments we build a mobility and injury prevention program that addresses your specific needs and goals. 

        MOBILITY & 

FLEXIBILITY

02.

        

Movement is a skill that can only be developed through practice.

Each training session places focus on teaching linear or multi-directional speed, so you learn to transfer that skill to your sport.

          SPEED

& AGILITY

03.

Strength training alone does not produce more explosive athletes. That's why we use specialized Soviet training methods to increase your ability to produce more force faster. This is done through ballistics, plyometrics, med ball work, and jumping/landing techniques.

          EXPLOSIVENESS      & POWER

04.

 

We are the ONLY program in Tampa Bay that uses the Internal Strength Model (ISM). This method addresses both the internal strength of connective tissues and the external strength produced by the nervous system and muscles. Training this way maximizes the amount of force the body can absorb (injury prevention) and Generate (Strength). 

All this is done with a high priority on movement quality. 

          STRENGTH

05.

          

 

Energy is what the you use to perform your sport.

Our program includes Energy Systems Development (ESD) protocols to increase endurance, so you can maximize conditioning and minimize the effects of fatigue during training and competition.
