Recently there has been LOTS of information about how to deal with the heat for athletes practicing out in the heat. Too much info??? I seriously doubt it. You can't bang this drum loud enough. Heat illnesses are 100% preventable. Football players are not the only athletes at risk....volleyball players are in non-air-conditioned gyms....band members are marching outside....even the coaches are at risk. Don't forget about the officials who will be working games & scrimmages as well!
So what to do? Below are several links you can check out for tips & reference materials:

PLEASE, be smart out there.

Updates
Well, football & volleyball practices are getting underway around the state of Arkansas. I would like to take this opportunity to say "GREAT WORK!" to all of the athletes who put forth incredible effort this summer with us here at ASPC. It will pay off!
Now, we shift our focus to pre-season basketball training, as well as the beginnings of off-season baseball & softball workouts. Do you have a training plan for the calendar year? Are you still "winging it?"
Those who have no plan are, in reality, planning to fail.
Come by & see us to get a plan started. We will get you on the right path so you can enter your season ready to DOMINATE!
Basketballers: it's time to get started on your jump training!!

Looking over the amazing list of athletes we have been blessed enough to work with, I am so very proud of the work these athletes have put in, as well as the work put in by our talented staff. The greatest training program in the world is nothing unless you have solid people implementing it, and I believe we have that here.
Congrats to the following ASPC athletes:
Travis Wood, pitcher, Cincinnati Reds
Dustin Mosley, pitcher, New York Yankees
Darren McFadden, running back, Oakland Raiders
Tyrell Johnson, safety, Minnesota Vikings
This summer, we have had 4 athletes preparing for college baseball, 2 for college softball, 3 for college soccer, 4 for college basketball, as well as several high school & junior highers getting ready.

One size does not fit all, it fits one.
