JUNIOR ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT & TRAINING BUNBURY
paving the way for tomorrow’s sports people
Through targeted strength and conditioning programs, we focus on enhancing key attributes such as speed, power, agility, and endurance, all while fostering proper technique and injury prevention. Our comprehensive approach not only addresses their immediate performance needs but also lays a strong foundation for long-term athletic success.
OUR PROCESS
HOW IT WORKS
We specialise in helping and developing young athletes achieve the physical skills they need to take their athletic performance to the next level.
Our junior athletes benefit greatly from our 24/7 guidance and week by week year-round program. Without this a lot of talented young athletes tend to gravitate towards poor nutrition, distractions from social media and will generally just follow what their friends are doing (which isn’t much).
Unfortunately parents requests to motivate their child into doing extra training and living a healthy lifestyle gets lost in the sea of also requesting them to do chores, get ready to leave on time, go to bed at a reasonable hour etc etc. This is where having a professional outside opinion really does help – a voice to say,
“If you are serious about becoming a professional athlete this is what you have to do”.
01
FOUNDATION OF STABILITY AND TECHNIQUE
Begin by ensuring a solid base of stability, proper technique, and sufficient range of motion before progressing to more advanced training.
02
Progressive Development of Physical Qualities
Focus on building muscle hypertrophy, strength, and power, layered on top of the athlete’s foundational stability and movement mechanics.
03
Balanced Movement Patterns
Prioritise training that promotes equilibrium between agonist and antagonist muscle groups, ensuring a balanced physique and optimal functional performance.
04
Individualised Training Approach
Tailor each session to the athlete's unique needs, regressing or progressing exercises based on their current abilities, and adapting to the time of year or competition phase.

We will work with the athlete's schedule as to what days they will train and program it in individual to their situation. We will also advise on what other parts of their schedule we would recommend removing or rearranging to help get them from where they are to where they want to be, this is just advice and up to the athlete's discretion.

Our membership program as well as progress gym membership is a non-lock in contract. No joining fees and no exit fees apply. We like to let our results do the talking and most athletes are eager to continue once they see the difference this kind of training can make to their field or court based performance. Clients can leave at any time however we do require payment up until the end of their current 4 week training blocks (refer to terms of service section). We do ask as a courtesy that members receive 2 months of training before deciding to call it quits - this is not enforced though.

This Hold period is subject to significant reasoning such as a long holiday away, debilitating injury, illness or other significant life alterating circumstances. During periods of busyness, competition, injury or rest periods the program is altered to still continue to compliment that current phase of the client's life and assist them in being able to return to a comprehensive program again.

At JAP we understand that we are not the one that has to actually do the program. Personal preferences of training are factored into the program design to an extent. We work with our clients to find the fine line between building a program they can enjoy and buy into as well as it being practical enough to help them reach their goals.
