East Orange Soccer Club Strength and Conditioning Program
East Orange Soccer Parents and Players,
East Orange Soccer Club is offering this valuable program to all competitive, premier, region cup and state cup soccer players. The program offered is a strength and conditioning class that has three primary goals:
·Reduce the risk of injury to the ankles, knees and hips
·Develop speed, quickness and agility
·Increase strength and power
Soccer is a very demanding sport that requires a high degree of agility, quickness, strength, power, flexibility and movement skills to play at an elite level. Investing your time in a well designed strength and conditioning program can take your soccer game to the next level.
My name is Troy Ismir and I am the strength and conditioning coach for the East Orange Soccer program. I have over 15 years experience in fitness and strength and conditioning. I was formerly the personal training director at the RDV Sportsplex in Orlando. I have a Masters Degree in Exercise and Sports Science and I am certified by the AmericanCollege of Sports Medicine as a Health Fitness Specialist.
The program is on Friday evenings from 6:30pm-7:30pm at the ECON soccer fields. The class size is limited to 8 participants between the ages of 10 and 19. Once the class is filled I will look at adding another time. If you are interested in trying the class, you can call me at 407-382-7902 or e-mail me at troy@livewellstrategies.comThe cost of the program is $60.00/month. I offer a complimentary first session to make sure that the strength and conditioning class will meet your needs.

This study looked at the effect of strength and conditioning on noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injury in female collegiate soccer players. The bottom line of the study showed that noncontact anterior cruciate ligaments occurred 70% less with athletes who participated in a sports conditioning program compared to athletes who did not train.
