LMHS hires in professionals from Elite Fitness to manage our strength program. We work to offer multiple opportunities for student-athletes in the summer and before and after school opportunities during the entire school year.
When student-athletes are “out-of-season” we want them to lift 3 times a week. When they are “in-season” their teams will have 2 times a week for them to lift. The Elite Fitness group manages all of these weight programs and daily sessions for us.
We are asking that each student pay $100 for year long strength training sessions at the high school. This is a great deal!
We have seen great athletic growth in kids who have committed to this program! The fee we charge to students is our estimate of the cost we will incur for managing the strength program & instructors. Any additional funds will remain with the strength training program for maintaining/upgrading equipment.
Your fee covers all 2023 summer strength opportunities and all sessions during the 2023-2024 school year.
