About

SD Premier Athletes in Carlsbad, the youth sport-performance division of San Diego Premier Training at 6451 El Camino Real since 2008, develops athletes ages 8 and up through Functional Movement Screen assessments that identify compensation patterns before building individualized strength and conditioning programs. The three-tier age structure—Junior Athletes (8–12), Foundational Athletes (12–15), and Premier Athletes (15+)—progresses from basic movement exploration to complex loaded patterns, and the facility's personal-training side runs adult programs alongside the youth track through the same El Camino Real suite shared with URBN Athlete's high-performance coaching corridor. Screening protocols evaluate ankle dorsiflexion, hip hinge mechanics, and overhead reach patterns to determine whether an athlete is cleared for plyometric and speed work or needs corrective-exercise intervention first. The DEKA and Spartan Race preparation programs layer obstacle-specific grip endurance and carries onto the base strength curriculum, and the 5-component model—strength training, cardiorespiratory conditioning, nutrition, corrective exercise, and recovery—mirrors the holistic spine-and-movement philosophy at CBAD Chiropractic for young athletes managing growth-plate and postural concerns. 28-day and 8-week nutrition challenges pair macro-calibrated meal plans with InBody composition tracking to establish metabolic baselines for adolescent athletes in caloric-surplus growth phases.
