Athlete of the Month – December 2016

Dec 19, 2016 | Archives


Tripp Lankford

Congrats to our December Athlete of the Month, Tripp Lankford.  He started his training at goperformance at the beginning of the summer.  He’s seen improvements in all areas.  The numbers are below as well as Tripp’s take on how the training at goperformance has impacted him on the soccer field.

The Metrics

Vertical:

22.5 inches to 26.5 inches

40 Yard Dash:

5.32 seconds to 4.94

Broad Jump:

7 feet to 7 feet and 8 inches 

Tripp, describe the training at goperformance.

“The training sessions at goperformance consistently challenge me to push myself to new limits, many times beyond what I think I can accomplish.” 

What’s the biggest improvement you’ve noticed since training here?

“My strength has increased and my agility has improved, which has boosted my confidence in my sport.”

How does the training at go performance translate to soccer?

“Speed and leg strength are two very important components to soccer and the training at goperformance has helped me to elevate my ability in these two areas. On the field, I noticed that the running techniques we practiced help improve my speed quite a lot.”

From Coach Lane:

“I know that his soccer schedule was demanding this fall.  Tripp has only been coming 1 time per week for the past 6 months.  That’s a great deal of improvement only training one time per week.  I am impressed that he chose to come and was committed to attending even knowing that he can only make a training session once a week.  It demonstrates a great deal of commitment on his part and his desire to improve. It shows that even coming once per week during the season can yield results.”
