About
ABOUT US
Henke Sprint Performance is committed to developing speed for all sports based in Brookfield, Connecticut. Using force-velocity profiling to determine our athlete's specific needs and deficits, we can personalize our training to meet the requirements of any athlete of any age, in any sport. We use FreeLap timing, as well as thorough sprint analysis methods to ensure both the physiological and technical growth of our athletes.
Our motto "Sprint
Surgically" reflects our deep commitment toward attention to detail, and to developing our athletes to meet the many specificities which high-level speed requires. For our athletes, our motto also applies to them. We teach our athletes to understand their bodies, their levers, and how to grow as sprinters. We also grow the knowledge of our athletes, so that they can lead other athletes, and develop their own speed through programming and deep analysis.
