What is Speed, Agility & Quickness? SAQ Training
SAQ – Speed, Agility and Quickness – is a system of training aimed at the development of motor abilities and the control of body movement through the development of the neuromuscular system.
It aims to improves the athlete’s ability to perform explosive multi-directional movements by reprogramming the neuromuscular system so that it can work more efficiently, better coordinating the body and brain.
In effect SAQ training will remove mental blocks and thresholds and will allow the athlete to exert maximal force during controlled and balanced movement patterns, which are specific to their sport.
By considering the energy systems involved in the athlete’s sport, the specificity of the movement patterns, muscle action, the speed and range of motions performed and the specific needs of the athlete, SAQ training can provide a highly specific and detailed training method that will help the performer reach their goals.
SAQ training will also help to reduce the risk of injury and increase the performers motivation levels by providing unique and sport specific drills and practices that are limitless in their arrangement.
SAQ Training is used throughout Can Do Martial Arts classes, which provides you a unique and scientific training opportunity like no other!
