“ I have been training with meghan since i was 12 years old. she has pushed me out of my comfort zone and pushed me to be the best athlete i can be. she helps acheive athletes’ personal goals and provides encouragement, even if you don’t hit a goal or if you fail, she goes back to the drawing board to see what can be changed to help acheive it.

She incorporates different types of movements that are specific to your sport. For me, I am a 5’6’’ volleyball player. It is not very common for a 5’6’’ volleyball player to play in the front row as a hitter. However, Meghan helped me achieve playing in the front and back row by helping me jump, be quicker on my feet, and one of the stronger athletes on the court.”

Training for Volleyball

When I started my career 15 years ago, ALL female athletes, whether it was field hockey, volleyball, lacrosse, or soccer, were being grouped into the same programming as their male counterparts. That is the point where I decided I wanted to change the landscape of training female athletes.

For the past 10 years of my 15 years in the business, I have focused on primarily female athletes. Even today, there are very few, if any (in the area), that work with just female athletes. My programs are sports specific with individual athlete training plans. I strive to improve the individual players’ game while training them in a team environment.

Not only do I work with field hockey players, but I also work with other sports as well. Volleyball, soccer, and lacrosse have been a great importance in my career as well. The training for these sports and the female athletes are just as important and the same detailed programming is needed.

Volleyball players especially benefit from a tailored lifting program. The strength that they will develop helps with vertical jumping, power output, helps keep injuries at a minimum, and it allows their bodies to be prepared for year-round volleyball.

key components for Volleyball Players

  • Single leg exercises for strength and power

  • Jumping mechanics and improvement in vertical jump

  • Landing and Loading mechanics

  • Plyometrics

  • Shoulder stability and mobility

  • Upper and Lower Body strength

  • Core strength

  • First step quickness

Volleyball Program

For other sports, the programs are 90 minutes in length. I offer 2, 3 or 4 day/ week sessions. Here is more information regarding each:

2-Day a week program

The two day a week program is the most popular program amongst yearlong playing athletes and off-season athletes.

3-Day a week program

For advanced athletes or those not participating in any other sport. Also, for athletes who are preparing to play in college.

4-day a week program

The four- day a week program is reserved for high school and college athletes’ home on break and for the summer periods.
