Brissette Sports Performance

Trying to recall if I have ever posted anything regarding my family. Pretty confident the answer is NO. Why - business content only. But there is a 1st time for everything. Happy to say my high school senior has chosen a college. Why am I sharing this? We sat down last night and watched some videos of her college of choice. If this isn’t a fit I don’t know what is. As we are watching some quotes pop up on the screen of what the college believes in for each and every student t...hat attends. INVEST IN EXCELLENCE DEVELOP the WHOLE STUDENT These are some of the exact principles Brissette Sports Performance works toward every day for our athletes. At BSP we take pride in developing athletes and developing the most appropriate programs for our athletes. If you invest in excellence it will come If you develop the whole athlete, you optimize their abilities Contact us today

Great memory here from 1 year ago today. Injury shouldn’t stop athletes from staying fit for their sport. 2 of the hardest working gymnasts I know. Great memory and they are both competing at the college level now.

HUGE SHOUTOUT to Gavin Kloetzer for continuing to put the appropriate work in. How we do it at BSP. We set you up on an individualized program. We FaceTime and walk you through the program to make sure your technique, your tempo, your rest periods, your understanding of the program makes sense. We are with you every step of the way 24/7. That is how Athletic Development should be done. Get on the appropriate Sports Performance program today. Contact us at your convenience.

As I sit in my temporary office writing programs today for my athletes, my sidekick has joined in and is assisting in the decision making. Great time for her to join me. She loves to run outside and in the Session 2 programming we are going from 2 days a week of Endurance & Sprint work to 4. LETS GOOOOOO

HUGE SHOUTOUT to NY Diamond Girls 14u Coons team. When you are working with a team and have to revise and progress their program, what do you do? Have a Zoom meet and take the entire team through the 1st session. EXCELLENT job today and love the dedication. LETS GOOOOOO

HUGE shoutout to Kristina Marie who is my daughters Physical Education teacher and also the rest of staff at Sacred Heart. Thank you for all your hard work in keeping the students moving throughout the week. These zoom classes provide ongoing structure, cognitive content, motor skills, reduce stress and in general give the kids interaction with other classmates. Thanks Coach K

Great text from one of my athletes putting in the work today. Athlete- Was just at the track doing my sprinting day. Saw another kid there definitely doing a BSP running workout, I can spot it a mile away! Me- Made my day. Thats awesome ... BSP - NEED TO DO vs nice to do. Always giving our athletes the NEED TO DO. LETS GOOOOOOOO Athlete-Heck yeah Why post? We as athletes, parents, coaches and organizations need to understand that going out and jogging 1 mile, 2 miles, 3 miles to stay in shape for your sport doesn’t work. If you are a baseball or softball athlete, a volleyball, soccer or LAX athlete for example, this approach doesn’t work. Different energy systems are used for different sports. Want to maximize your time, get IN SHAPE or FIT TO PLAY? We will design a program for you, your sport, your fitness level. Contact BSP to get started today.

Had to share this photo. Just received this photo from one of my athletes dad. Covid 19 dreary, rainy, 39 degrees outside right now and this athlete is getting better today. The dad texted me this She needed the room to work and I said the weather was against her. She said I play in the rain. It doesn’t bother me. LOVE THE DAY

One of our missions at BSP is to bulletproof our athletes and make them adaptable. Well Covid 19, my facility may be empty these days but many of my athletes are still working everyday to get better at what they love and I am still standing. We have had to reinvent ourselves a bit these past couple of weeks to keep moving forward. It hasn’t been easy but we are doing it. If you are interested in a sports performance home program, don’t know how to proceed or are getting cookie cutter videos off the internet contact me. LET’S GOOOOOOO

COMMIT TO STAY FIT NOW MORE THAN EVER Due to mandatory closures, Brissette Sports Performance is unable to provide in-person Athletic Development/ Sports Performance services, however, we are providing video consulting and home based programming for all interested athletes. ...

WHAT DO YOU STAND FOR? When I decided several years ago to start my own business it was for the sole purpose of giving athletes the best possible opportunity to develop appropriately. When designing the business plan I came up with 3 words that dictate everything we do for the athletes. ... INTEGRITY - HONESTY - LOYALTY INTEGRITY - doing what is right HONESTY - truthful, trustworthy, genuine LOYALTY - commitment and dedication At BSP we pride ourselves on giving our athletes the best possible outcome and the attention they need. We fit the program to the athlete NOT the athlete to the program.

When your 2 favorite sister volleyball athletes show up for an early session and they are wearing each other’s T-shirt’s. LOVE THE DAY

Non-weight bearing athlete to 1st day of weight bearing as tolerated. Side by side visual that compliment one another. Notice no shoes in weight bearing for added proprioception. RECONDITIONING = TRAINING & TRAINING = RECONDITIONING

HUGE shoutout to Kevin Powers at ArtDog for the speedy turn around time (3 days) on these tees.

Just because you had ankle surgery and you are non weight-bearing doesn’t mean you have to stop with your sports performance training. A small collage of a session with a high school soccer athlete continuing to get ready for college.

Love when my athletes update me on how well they are doing. My weekend is complete. Came in first in steeple for ecics on Saturday. I ran an 8 second PR! 7:37.70 and I have sectionals this upcoming weekend Friday and Saturday at my school. If you are free you should come and watch me run the mile or steeple it starts at 12 and I’m only racing Saturday. Should be a lot of fast competition. And I also ran 5:05 in the mile 1 second season best LOVE THE DAY

No commentary needed for this photo. LOVE this photo

Didn’t think my Friday could get any better at this point. Then one of my athletes drops this on me- Hey, just wanted to let you know I just ran the 3000 at ecics and went a 10:56!! That’s a 35 second drop for my season best and a 22 second drop for my PR ever. Unfortunately I missed the new balance national time by a second but hopefully can get it tomorrow in the 1500 and next week at sectionals!! Thanks for everything!

Hearing about some of our BSP family having lack luster performances this past weekend I thought I would put this up today. Ability Motivation Attitude - control what you can control.

Athletes, Parents, Coaches CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE - "Approximately 300,000 athletes WILL sustain an ACL tear this year in the USA at a cost of $5 BILLION in healthcare costs". Yes - 300,000 athletes & $5 BILLION in costs. 1 in 75 high school female athletes & 1 in 10 college female athletes. Staggering statistics I know.... I have worked with just under 16,000 athletes in the last 16 years. The majority of the athletes consist of middle school to college aged athletes. While these athletes have been under the care & guidance at BSP, we have ONLY had 3 ACL tears. I have my own opinions as to why we are at almost epidemic levels. But more importantly my statistics show that we can combat these injuries. We need to change the landscape of what is going on in athlete development in this country. Make the change to excel at your sport, make the change to develop your athleticism appropriately, make the change to stay healthy.

STAGGERING statistic here. This was sent to me by text this evening by a travel softball coach who gets it. This is not an isolated injury. On a regular basis I am seeing overuse injuries that should not be happening and the age range is much larger. My youngest at the moment is in 6th grade.

Lets erase the stigma about athletes not coming back the same after surgery. HUGE SHOUTOUT to Kelsey Chubb - College Sophomore Field Hockey athlete - 9 MONTHS Post Op ACL Surgery. "Everything is going well so far! I did well (Me - she did awesome) in the fitness test and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to beWe did a gauntlet so my time was 1 mile was 7:45... 2 Laps was 4:11 1 lap was 1:51 200 yard sprint was 48 seconds Then we had to do 10 40 yard sprints just for completion, and I finished the whole thing in 23:50 probably in the middle of the pack."(middle of the pack, against non-surgical athletes, very humble). Did I mention this athlete is 8 MONTHS POST-OP ACL Surgery. College Graduate - 3 MONTHS Post-Op ACL surgery. Preparing for State Trooper fitness test. "Just ran a mile in 8:15, your strategy for running the laps definitely helped" Did I say 3 MONTHS Post-Op ACL surgery? College Junior Lacrosse Female Athlete - "Hey Ron! Testing past two days has gone good (gone good, my athletes are very humble). Broad jump I got 7ft, I ranked 3rd on my team and vertical jump top 5 on my team don't know the number. Push ups I ranked third on my team with 33 (I will add this athlete did not do push-ups this summer)The 20 yard dash and 40 yard dash I ranked 1st on my team but don't have the times, we get them shown to us next week. The T-test (add again this athlete never practiced the T-test this summer) I ranked 1st on my team and I also don't have that time we get the sheet with the times next week. We did 3 300 yard runs tests and they were all under 60 seconds. I also got named a captain!(well well well deserved).Thank you so much for all you did this summer with me it definitely got me to those times and numbers. I'll keep you updated on more throughout next week for the beep test and the school year!! College Junior Female Hockey Athlete - "Hi Ron, just want to say thank you for everything this summer! I had my first day of testing hit all my numbers for testing! I’ll let you know how I do on Friday, everyone said I look great and look faster from last year! At BSP - its all about the athletes. Preparing and Bulletproofing them for their seasons & beyond.

Huge SHOUTOUT to Paige. So PROUD and HAPPY for her. Coming back from ACL surgery, wrist surgery, transferring colleges to MAAC Offensive player of the week her senior year. Well well well deserved. Look forward to watching you play this season. https://gogriffs.com//womens-soccer-buscaglia-named-maac-o

3 more college athletes smashing their preseason assessments. Huge SHOUTOUT to Quinny, Kay (both college sophomores) & LA (college freshman). "Fastest 300s on the team all between 55-58 seconds" "Finished run testing today... First run was 12 x100 yard run finished in 6:50 Second was 8x 100 yard finished in 3:26 200 in 45 seconds Finished the first run test first 20 seconds ahead of the others" "Hey Ron I passed my fitness test this morning!! Thank you so much for all your help over the summer, I could not have done it without you!!" Do you know an athlete looking for a competitive edge, looking for a sports performance programs that caters to their needs? Have them contact BSP.

HUGE SHOUT OUT to Caris, Davies and Paige, the 1st 3 of my college athletes I had the honor of working with this summer. They all smashed their preseason college assessments. Can't wait to watch them play this season. Texts from them below. All D1 College Athletes... "Yayyy!!! I did it. Thank you so much for the help this summer with fitness. I passed the Man U with 20!!" "Passed my fitness test , One of four people to do so, Thanks for all of your help!!! Really couldn’t do it without you. See you soon!!" "Hi my coach told me I’m the fittest he has ever seen me and that he is very proud. So thanks to you you rock!!!" These 3 athletes are what I consider FIT to PLAY. Interested in your athletes excelling in their sport(s)? Contact me.

Great text I received from a club swim coach I am working with this season. Picture of athletes left out (not important to me) "This ones for you! Thanks for the help, the kids swam great!! It’s hard to tell but Nate, Aiden and Natalie are holding High Point award trophies for their respective age groups ... First time at a Niagara district championship that one team had three kids get that award" If you are a parent or coach wanting appropriate sports performance training/ injury prevention for your child/ athlete contact me.
