I stress fundamental development through the use of properly illustrated exercises and drills. I start every new athlete with a series of tests to determine their athletic and skill level.

Evaluation
Each session starts with a personal evaluation to determine how client is feeling.

Warm-up
How the client feels determines the type of warmup, which is generally a dynamic warmup to get the blood flowing to the muscles and joint fluids warmed up.

Drills
Every athlete participates in running technique drills and core work to improve overall coordination and running form. Sport specific development drills are based on the athletes needs.

Workout
Workouts are based on the clients requests and can range from sprinting, speed endurance, footwork development to plyometrics for explosive development.

Cooldown
Static and ballastic stretches to relieve the lactic acid and promote recover as well as more core work.

Client Reviews

I hired Dwayne to help my soccer-playing son improve his speed. After five sessions my 17-year old son has seen big improvements in his technique. He also feels more confident in his ability to close on his man (he is an outside back). I highly recommend Dwayne if you want to improve your speed.

Coach Washington is a great coach. He is incredibly professional and knows exactly what he is talking about. He was able to quickly identify areas for improvements in my sprinting technique, and come up specific drills to help with my corrections. We worked on starts and plyometrics for a combination of strength and technique training. To be honest, I feel like a brand new person after the workout. I would definitely recommend Coach Washington to anyone who is looking for a top notch sprints/speed coach. You could really tell he cares about the sports, and his athletes!

Coach Dwayne has an energetic training style that motivates and inspires his athletes to perform at their peak! My son's athleticism has significantly improved in a very short time, specifically in the following areas: speed, endurance, stamina, and overall technique. My son is very excited to continue training with Coach Dwayne and I would highly recommend him to any athlete that's looking to take his/her game to the next level.

my son is at 5.65 40 time within a few weeks...
he was 6.01 when we started a few months ago!

Working on my craft with Coach Washington has been a blessing. If you believe in his program and give everything you have, you will see results. Great example, when I first started working with him I had no long jump experience at all I got to work with him for 2 weeks max and I was already jumping 23'6 at the time. Also before training with xplosv sports I was not able to break 11 seconds in the 100m. Now after buying into the program for a summer I've been running 10-mid on average with more to come. There is no secret formula! I highly recommend if you want to be better and take your sport to the next level, Contact Coach and get to work!
