Speed and Agility Training in Urbandale and the Des Moines Metro
Acceleration Iowa
Speed is trainable. Acceleration Iowa is the sports performance program at DSM Performance, built to develop the qualities that decide games: acceleration, change of direction, vertical and horizontal power, and the core strength to hold it together under fatigue.

Why it works
What to Expect
Acceleration Iowa makes better athletes. We do this by increasing their speed, explosiveness, jumping ability (vertically & horizontally), core strength and flexibility. We are specifically focused on building faster, more explosive athletes.
Sessions are coached start to finish. Athletes are grouped so the work matches training age and ability, which means a first-year middle schooler and a college athlete home for the summer both get loaded appropriately rather than shoved through the same session. Sprint mechanics, acceleration and deceleration, multi-directional movement, jump and landing quality, and strength work all sit in one plan rather than being bolted together.
Athletes come to us from every sport in the metro: football, basketball, soccer, track, baseball, softball, volleyball, wrestling. The program does not care which sport you play, it cares whether you can move faster and produce more force by the end of the block than you could at the start.

Sprint mechanics and acceleration work coached rep by rep, because the fastest way to get faster is to stop practicing bad positions.
Jump training vertically and horizontally, plus the strength work behind it, so power shows up on the field and not just in the weight room.
Deceleration and multi-directional drills that teach athletes to stop, plant and go again without losing ground or getting hurt.
The unglamorous foundation. Trunk strength and range of motion so the speed you build has something to transmit through.
