What gets measured first?
Speed, jump, strength, movement quality, conditioning, and sport context should be named before a package is sold.
Parent guide
Do not buy training you cannot measure.
Parents deserve more than "they worked hard today." The Performance Lab starts with baseline testing, names the training priority, and gives parents clear progress language after the block.
What you should receive.
Numbers, notes, next step. Not hype, not vague encouragement, not a contract before fit is clear.

Parent checklist
Ask these questions before paying for youth training.
How does the plan fit the season?
Travel season, school season, tryouts, tournaments, and recovery weeks should affect the training block.
What proof do parents see?
The best program explains what changed, what did not, and what is next in language parents can repeat.
What claims are off limits?
No youth trainer should promise scholarships, recruiting outcomes, scout attention, medical treatment, or guaranteed performance.
The Performance Lab standard
Better training should make the next conversation easier.
After an assessment or block, parents should be able to say what the athlete is building: acceleration, jump power, deceleration, strength, confidence, work capacity, movement quality, or a better plan around the season.
