I am a very technical sprint coach. I work on form, form, FORM first. I feel that an athletes mechanics are very essential when it comes to them reaching their fullest potential. A good base must be set. When it comes to speed, the fast-twitch muscles must be developed along with a strong core. We will do speed workouts, speed endurance, build power, stride-work, and work on footspeed. Coaching from the 60/100-400m dash.

Susan (CoachUp client)
We had a great session with Coach Kareem! He took the time to get to know my daughter as an athlete, explained things to her in a way that an 11 year old would understand, worked her hard and made it fun! She can’t wait to work with him again.

Coach Kareem was very insightful in recognizing where I needed to build and improve. His assessment of my form helped me to understand why I have not achieved my previous goals. I am confident with his help I will be successful in reaching my goals.
