United Fit is a new program NWI United FC will be implementing this year created by Luis Prato (United coach and trainer). United Fit is program for the prevention of injuries through the use of proper strength and conditioning exercises designed especially for soccer players. We are very excited to be offering this program to all our United players this year.
Coach Prato is not only a coach and trainer for United (with a National Youth license and National 'C' license) but is a licensed and certified Physical Therapist, Orthopedic Clinical Specialist, and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. Coach Prato, along with Lakeshore Bone and Joint, have offered United players an outstanding opportunity to enhance their soccer performance through this outstanding new program, United Fit.
Coach Prato has prepared some very informative PowerPoint presentations on Physical Preparation for Youth Soccer Players and Metabolic Conditioning which can be found below. In addition, he has posted an excellent article on the Prevention of Overuse Injuries in Young Soccer Players also listed below. For specific questions on your child or an injury they may be dealing with at this time, please contact Coach Prato by clicking on his photo above.
