Team Bird Youth Suspension Metabolic Training Center

COLUMBIA CITY (February 6, 2012) – Team Bird local youth running club has expanded its services to youth suspension body weight and metabolic training programs.

Team Bird is

well known nationally as distance runners for cross country and track. The club is one of the oldest in the state of Indiana getting it’s roots back in 2001, here in Columbia City IN. More information about Team Bird can be found at www.teambird.org

 

We have always provided suspension body weight and metabolic training as part of general youth fitness with the running club. Our popularity over the last year, allowed us to take on other sports such as: Softball, Volleyball youth athletes” said director Gary Bird.

 

Team Bird specializes with just youth and the training approach, age development and equipment is for youth fitness. We do not provide Adult Training activities that you may find at adult fitness centers. We use the athletes body weight to provide: coordination, flexibility, agility, strength, speed, and fitness. Our main concern is taking a proactive solution to prevent youth injuries in all sport, by providing sound training principles, in the exercise training plans.

 

Currently we provide services from Bremen to Berne so the market for specialization of youth training methods is out there which got us to this next step. Monday’s and Thursday’s are already filled with youth athletes participating in the program. We recently added additional certified instructors to take on the needs of our youth.
