In soccer, performance training is often the difference between good players and great ones. At Apache CrossFit, we take a holistic, science-backed approach to developing explosive speed, strength, and resilience—ensuring athletes don’t just train harder, but train smarter.
Traditional soccer training focuses heavily on sprinting and agility drills, which players already get plenty of during games and practices. While these elements are essential, true performance gains happen off the field—through structured strength and plyometric training. Our program is designed to fill in the gaps, helping soccer athletes build power, endurance, and injury resistance for a competitive edge.
Many soccer programs emphasize repetitive sprinting and agility drills, assuming more practice leads to better performance. While some repetition is necessary, overloading athletes with the same drills can lead to plateaued progress and increased risk of overuse injuries.
At Apache, we flip this idea on its head by focusing on what traditional programs often overlook:
✅ Strength Development – A stronger athlete is a faster, more resilient athlete.
✅ Explosive Power – Plyometrics enhance acceleration and agility without excessive sprint volume.
✅ Injury Prevention – Training the right muscle groups reduces strain and enhances durability.
Soccer players already sprint, cut, and maneuver in their regular training—so why not focus on what actually moves the needle for performance?
One of the biggest missing pieces in many soccer players’ training is absolute strength. Without it, even the fastest athletes lack the power to maximize their acceleration, control, and endurance on the field.
At Apache, we implement a structured strength program that builds this foundation through exercises like:
🔥 Trap Bar Deadlifts – Develops total-body strength for sprinting and change of direction.
🔥 Barbell Reverse Lunges – Improves single-leg power, essential for cutting and agility.
🔥 Core Strength Training – Stabilizes the body, improving control and reducing injury risk.
Stronger players can generate more force, recover faster, and stay in peak condition throughout the season.
Another game-changing element of our training is plyometric development. Plyos train athletes to produce force quickly, improving acceleration, speed, and agility without excessive linear sprinting.
Our program includes:
🚀 Box Jumps & Seated Box Jumps – Maximizes explosive vertical force for quicker first steps.
🚀 Lateral Bounds – Enhances agility and quick directional changes.
🚀 Broad Jumps – Builds power for sustained sprinting speed.
By training in multiple planes of motion, our athletes develop the explosiveness and reaction time needed to outmaneuver opponents and dominate the game.
Athletes who train with us don’t just feel stronger—they see measurable improvements in speed, power, and on-field performance. Instead of wasting energy on repetitive drills, they focus on gaining the strength, explosiveness, and endurance that make a real difference in competition.
At Apache CrossFit, we believe in training smarter, not just harder. Soccer players need more than just skills—they need the power, resilience, and explosiveness to take their game to the next level. If you're ready to elevate your performance before the next season, we’re here to help.
