We build movement efficiency, reaction time, and raw speed to ensure you perform at your best, whether you're batting or swinging a club. ## Photos and videos - [Video: This is a 10-second on, 10-second off high-intensity interval training (HIIT) session. These short bursts of maximum effort followed by brief recovery are perfect for building explosive power, speed, and endurance in a time-efficient way.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/7677d7bb-be77-4e42-b0a7-4cce7c96f6d7) - [Video: To boost running speed, we focus on acceleration mechanics. Drills like A-skips and high knees improve technique, while short sprints build the ability to get to top speed quickly, which is vital for running between the wickets or chasing a ball.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/53654328-55b4-45a3-9daa-7dc054e9f5aa) - [Video: Consistency is a superpower.

My method uses contrast training—pairing a heavy compound lift like a back squat with an immediate plyometric drill like a hurdle jump—to force your central nervous system to fire faster. It is the simple difference between being strong in the gym and actually being dangerous on the pitch. ### How We Build Speed Real speed isn't just about running harder. It is about mechanics, force production, and how quickly you can move from a standstill. In our sessions, we strip away the fluff and focus on: * **Acceleration Mechanics:** We use A-skips, high knees, and explosive sprint starts to fix your running technique, giving you those critical extra yards. * **Contrast Training:** This is the core of our explosive power work. We combine heavy barbell movements with high-impact plyometrics like broad jumps and box jumps to train your muscles to produce maximum force instantly. * **Lateral Agility:** For cricketers and field athletes, moving sideways is just as important as running straight. We integrate lateral hurdle hops and reactive drills to ensure you can shift direction without losing power. ### The Science of Performance I use a periodized approach. During the off-season, we push for maximum volume and hypertrophy. Once the season hits, we back off the heavy fatigue and focus on maintenance, speed, and injury-proofing. My goal is to keep you fresh, not fried. We don't just guess; we track performance markers and refine your movement patterns, whether you need more power for your golf swing or faster reaction times behind the stumps. This is about building a robust athlete, not just a weightlifter. ## About Surya Yadav I’m Surya. Half my life is in the gym, the other half chasing that next peak in the mountains.
