An introduction to Alan Warner, Strength Coach at LPS Athletic Centre. Alan has experience training professional and amateur athletes from a variety of sports and has also been the assistant coach for the junior national water polo team of Barbados. He is a big proponent of doing and experiencing what you teach or put athletes to do. As such, you will regularly find him also training just as hard to increase his own strengths relevant to his sport at LPS.

His coaching philosophy focuses on developing not just an athlete’s physical strength, mobility, speed, explosiveness and resilience for their chosen sport, but in teaching athletes how true professional strength training benefits them. Being mentally relentless in your respective sport is key as well as outside of it. The nature of sport is fast paced, dynamic and continuous. Therefore, the discipline with which you approach sport can be so valuable in determining your approach to life.

Consistency Compounds – a high performance mindset is key.
