Speed. Power. Purpose. Why Movement + Mindset Matter in Sport Performance

When it comes to athletic success, most people focus on what they can see: speed on the field, verticals at the net, big plays under pressure. But what separates good athletes from great ones isn’t just how they move—it’s how they think and how they’re trained to move.

At Earn the Edge Performance, we believe building better athletes starts with mastering both the body and the mind—and our upcoming Performance Combine is designed to do exactly that.

🔁 It Starts with Movement Mastery

Here’s the truth: natural talent only gets you so far. Whether your athlete plays soccer, basketball, baseball, volleyball, or flag football—every sport relies on the same foundational movement skills:

Youth athletes learning movement mastery and sprint/speed mechanics

• Explosive starts off the line

• Controlled change of direction

• Max force production in a short amount of time

• Efficient sprint mechanics

• Powerful and safe jumping/landing techniques

💥At our Combine Prep Day, we teach these principles through expert-led instruction by NFL and NCAA Division 1 strength and conditioning coaches who specialize in performance and injury prevention.

Athletes will not only be tested on the 40-yard dash, vertical jump, broad jump, and 5-10-5 agility—they’ll be coached on how to master the mechanics so they can apply those skills directly to their sport.

This kind of coaching doesn’t just prepare them for Combine testing…It prepares them for game day success.

🧠 But Movement Alone Isn’t Enough: Mindset Is the Game-Changer

We’ve seen it time and time again: An athlete with talent, strength, and speed—but crumbles under pressure. Or one with potential, but struggles with self-doubt, inconsistency, or fear of failure.

That’s why our Combine includes a one-of-a-kind Athlete Mindset Education Station.

Led by experienced mental performance coaches, this station will help athletes:

• Develop a resilient mindset

• Practice focus and process-oriented thinking

• Set meaningful goals—and create habits to achieve them

• Learn how to perform under pressure

• Understand how to respond to coaching, setbacks, and mistakes

Because the way an athlete thinks in competition is just as important as how they move.

We’re not just building athletes. We’re building mentally tough, disciplined, coachable leaders on and off the field.

🧃 Bonus: Fueling the Process

Performance and recovery don’t stop after the whistle blows. That’s why we’ve added even more value with:

• A Nutrition Education Station by Registered Dietician Laura Cordero from Nourish2Thrive

• On-site pre/post-testing nutrition from Press’d or Blend’d for real-time recovery

Athletes will leave with knowledge on how to fuel before, perform during, and recover after both games and practices—skills that give them an edge for life.
