Consistent Hard Work

Post by Mark Ehnis

Hard work and consistency are the two components of an athletes performance program that I stress the most. Of course exercises, intensity, sets, reps, etc. are all important, but none of that matters without the two aforementioned components. Truth be told, you can get results from just about any program if you’re consistent AND working hard every training session- the results might not last or you’ll plateau, you might get injured, or it might take awhile- but you will get some sort of result. Whatever it is your trying to get good at, put in some consistent hard work and watch what happens. You might do the wrong thing every now and again but at least you did something and can learn from the mistake.

Get Serious!

Post Written by Mark Ehnis

The back of our t-shirts here at PowerStrength reads “Get Serious”. Nothing more. Nothing less. We brainstormed for which saying we wanted to use but when “Get Serious” was said, it just made sense. Getting serious is what PSTS is all about. It’s what separates us from everyone else. Having the discipline to make training a top priority. Being determined to better yourself and put forth the effort to make sure goals are attained. This is what getting serious for an athlete really means.  

What better place to learn the necessary steps to getting serious about your training than from a professional football player?

Explosive Day at PowerStrength!

The day began bright and early with a training session with Marquette-bound volleyball player, Jalyn Smith. It was her last day with us as she has to report over the weekend to begin her college volleyball career. We know Jalyn will make us proud here at PSTS. Before she left she had to set a few more records for our record board- and leave us some of the best homemade cookies on the planet! Thanks Jalyn! Good luck and you will be missed!

The rest of the morning was filled with high school and college-bound football players. Vertical jumps, box jumps, farmers walks, sled drags, and prowler sprints made up the majority of the workouts on our Dynamic Lower Body/Strongman Day. July is going to be intense! It's fair to say that all PSTS football players will be ready to go come August!
