FAQ
Questions athletes and parents ask first.
The first step is simple: share the athlete's goals, sport, schedule, and current limitations. M2 will point you toward the right starting point.
Ask a questionDo you train beginners?
Yes. Training starts with the athlete in front of us. Beginners focus on movement quality, confidence, coordination, strength fundamentals, and safe progression before intensity increases.
What age can kids start?
M2 Performance works with youth athletes in grades K-8 through the LTAD program. Younger athletes focus on coordination, balance, body control, basic movement principles, and age-appropriate strength.
Do you work around injuries?
Yes, as long as the athlete is cleared for training when needed. Injury history is reviewed during the first session so training can respect current limitations and build better movement capacity.
Is training sport-specific?
Yes. The foundation is strength, movement quality, speed, power, mobility, and durability, then the plan is adjusted around the athlete's sport, position, season, and goals.
