Strength & Conditioning

Mission Statement

Endicott Strength & Conditioning focuses on the long-term development and performance of the Endicott's student-athletes. Our student-athletes will utilize an individualized, year-round, linear periodization schedule, designed to achieve peak athletic performance during their respective competitive seasons. It is our goal to achieve success on the field, court, ice and competitive surface; not just lift heavy weights. At Endicott, we believe in the development of a solid foundation of safety and efficiency, movement, strength, power, toughness, and discipline. It is the passion of the strength staff to teach proper technique paired with resistance training, plyometric work, speed, conditioning, as well as recovery and regeneration. Student-athletes will be immersed in a supervised full body, ground-based program and have the opportunity to utilize multiple techniques ranging from Olympic lifting and single leg weight training to body weight and band exercises.

Endicott Strength & Conditioning is committed to the idea of the complete athlete success. The staff collaborates with Endicott Athletic Training to coordinate rehabilitation, nutrition, and analytics to enable our students the appropriate access to resources for their health and athletic competition.

The ultimate goal of this training is to reduce injury rates, promote more efficient and effective movements, and enable our student-athletes body synchronization and optimal control of their bodies during competition. The strength & conditioning staff pride themselves on imparting and upholding Endicott’s Core Standards of Leadership. The importance of open, effective communication with student-athletes and coaches about the physical and mental goals and challenges that are set before them. Staff and student-athletes will display character, commitment to themselves, their teams and Endicott, as well as exhibit confidence in their responsibilities. We continue to safely challenge ourselves and our student-athletes to seek out success now and in the future.
