Running / Speed Training in Dallas

I'm not sure football would increase his speed but we used to go to Don Beebe's House of Speed. Unfortunately Don is in Illinois but he does have tapes as do others. Don always told my son to get quicker on the short distances,ie for track, to practice running the sprints. Do a 100 yard dash, take a 5 minute break in between sprints. Keep shortening the rest time in between the sprints. I'm sure you could apply this to baseball. They also have all types of equipment like the power pull, which you can see at www.houseofspeed.com. I believe the key to any of this is to keep working at it, one session or a group of sessions isn't going to help in the long term. Hope that helps!

You might see if there is any facility offering the Frappier Acceleration Program in the Dallas area. I know there is one in Houston but not sure about Dallas. My son did it in high school. It is a 6 week program and is well established and proven. Mine took .3 off his 60 time. It is not easy but it is worth it.

Frappier program is offered @ DBAT.
There's also one over in Las Colinas/Valley Ranch area that I've heard good things about. I'll see if I can come up with a contact.

Frappier program at Zoom in Frisco and another Frappier franchise in Mansfield.

I am definately looking for something for more than just a few times. 6 week program would be good. I would hope it would be something after he was through that he would want to continue with.

Let me know if you find out the contact.

Also any others?

In addition to DBAT here are the other locations/info. for Frappier Acceleration. You can also go to Frappieracceleration.com
