Mind

Fostering the power of the mind is necessary
to optimise performance. It is important to manage anxieties,
maintain motivation, set the right goals and keep on an even
emotional keel. Otherwise energy is wasted and performance
suffers. Our services help you evolve mental fortitude,
often key in unlocking a new level of performance.

Body

Training is focussed upon preparing the body to perform.
These efforts should be carefully targeted, their effectiveness
tested and training adapted to foster continuous improvement.
We conduct ‘gold standard’ physiological assessments; design
both conditioning and sport specific programmes which
aim to correct weaknesses and build on strengths; and
support you in your training to achieve these goals.

Technique

Technical efficiency is critical to all sports, and technical
proficiency to many. We assess movement biomechanics and
technique, in a sports specific context. We design training plans that facilitate improvement. And we can support you in implementing
these plans. Additionally, we offer skill proficiency courses
to help those new to a sport acquire appropriate skills,
whether young or old.

Diet

What you eat directly affects your sporting performance.
But simply decreasing body mass reduces your capacity to train and enhances the risk of illness and injury. Your diet needs to adjust to your training demands and race goals so your body uses its substrates efficiently, adapts effectively and recovers quickly. We assess your diet
in the context of your training and competition. We can provide
a dietary plan, sample recipes, supplement recommendations and competition specific nutritional strategies.

Mind

At the elite level, the difference between winners and losers is often put down to mental fortitude. This ability can be developed
and trained, but amateur athletes often overlook its importance. Recent research has shown that maintaining a steady emotional state
during competition conserves energy substrates, particularly important in endurance events.

Our practitioners provide services founded in the latest research and tailored to your circumstances. Our detailed assessments
utilise proven techniques, such as questionnaires, consultations and performance observation. We report our findings to you along
with pertinent recommendations. We can design practical, tailored programs intended to enhance your mental performance.
And we can help you implement such programs, offering guidance and support through additional consultations and observation
sessions either remotely (by ‘phone or skype), in person or at your training facility or competition location.

Broaden your mind, evolve you performance.

Body

Amateur athletes balance training with hectic work and life schedules. This requires dedication and focus but often means too
much time is spent on their chosen sport, and too little on preparing their bodies to cope with training demands. This often results in sub-optimal performance and injury. At Performance Evolution we believe that athletes should optimise their training gains by developing the correct physiological foundations so that they can cope with the demands placed on the body.

We provide detailed assessments of your physiology – musculoskeletal, neuro-muscular, cardio-vascular, respiratory and endocrine health. The results guide planning and training programs and inform you where you may benefit from further assistance. Our focus is on helping you prepare the foundations you need to perform at your best and to target your training so that it improves you as an athlete. Building these foundations is also critical in young, aspiring athletes and we provide a tailored version of our services to youth athletes.

Some of our clients know precisely the help they need but if you require further guidance please do not hesitate to contact us.

Create the foundation, evolve your performance.

Technique

Our body can only push us so far – genetic limitations create a natural performance ceiling. Even then, most amateur athletes
get nowhere near to utilising their physiological potential as they neither have the time to train nor, as importantly, recover and adapt. Given these limitations it is critical to ensure that we move competently, with superb technique, and perform skilfully.

Technical competency requires our movements to be efficient and economic, to comfortably generate sufficient force
and to be skilfully, quickly and accurately deployed in the sports specific context. All these things are trainable
and evolve our performance without placing additional demands on our physiology, particularly our finite energy resources.

We evaluate movement efficiency in the sports specific context. We assess movement economy, using dynamic video analysis.
We analyse forces exerted during movement. And we review skill proficiency, using up-to-the-minute skills acquisition techniques.
Once assessed, we design training sessions to improve technical competence and skill proficiency. And we provide 1-1 and group coaching to help you adapt, so that improvements can be deployed in the training and competitive environment.

Capture your potential, evolve your performance.

Diet

Athletes need healthy and fully functioning bodies and minds to perform at their best: diet is critical to this.

We focus on adjusting our athletes’ diet to support function at a cellular level, protecting immune response and enhancing energy metabolism.

 

Our bodies need sufficient nutrients – vitamins, minerals, protein, fat and carbohydrate – to function correctly.

As training demands increase, so do nutrient demands. Diet is fundamental to facilitating such training, providing the necessary 

nutrients to perform but also to sleep, recover and adapt. High training loads can also compromise the immune system,

increasing the risk of injury and illness. This can be counteracted through diet and supplementation.

 

Whilst we aim to achieve the optimal body composition for your particular sport, we do not focus on calorie restriction.

This can disrupt nutrient supply and energy metabolism. Instead, compositional changes arise naturally, as a consequence

 of dietary changes. If they do not, we assess your physiology to identify any potential barriers to change and address these;

either through dietary or training adjustment. Such adjustments are tailored to you, your training regime, and your sport.
