When people think about personal training for kids, they often think of beginner weight training and how beneficial or safe it is. Part of youth training is introducing them to weights, but it also includes improving movement quality, balance, and posture. Personal training with us is always safe and the proper amount of weight is added when clients can demonstrate quality exercise form.
We focus on 4 main points: safety, movement quality, joint stability, and beginner strength development. Read more about strength training for young athletes.

At what age should kids start strength training?
14-18. High school age
- All kids at this age should be involved with some fitness or sports program.
- As they grow into adulthood, basic strength is needed for life long fitness.
- A must for those playing competitive sports to prevent injury, perform better, and endure long sports seasons.
- A great age to learn the basic movements and to get a head start on overall strength and athleticism.
- The demands of sports at this age increase so having fundamental strength and conditioning will help them adapt effectively to their new activities.
- I have often worked with pre-adolescent kids with successful outcomes. Most of these sessions are a combination of basic movements, games, and introducing them to various sports.
- The gym can be an appropriate training facility for this age with the understanding of gym safety and taking directions seriously. Proper precaution must be used when around fitness equipment.
- Sometimes it’s best to have kids 10 years old and younger train with a parent or outdoors where there is a lot of open space for games and sports play to occur.
