Beginner training plan

Your first lessonLessons 2 and 3, we begin layering in structured progressions. The emphasis is on mastering form and introducing low-impact resistance training (bands, light weights). Each session includes: • Dynamic warm-up + ladder or cone drills • Strength circuits with progressive reps (e.g., squat to box, banded rows) • Speed & coordination drills (A-skips, lateral shuffles) • Short conditioning finisher Education continues: we discuss recovery, hydration, and goal setting. By the end of Lesson 3, they should feel empowered and confident in foundational movements.

Lesson 11+By Lessons 11 and beyond, the athlete transitions from “beginner” to “developing athlete.” Sessions now focus on refining skills, increasing intensity, and building performance consistency. Expect: • Sport-specific training progressions (e.g., position-based drills, game-like scenarios) • More advanced strength and power work (introducing plyometrics, resistance training, and speed mechanics) • Tactical awareness and decision-making drills (if applicable to their sport) • Performance testing checkpoints to track measurable improvements • Individualized feedback and adjustments based on goals, strengths, and areas of improvement The goal at this stage is to prepare the athlete for competition, increase self-discipline, and develop leadership, focus, and resilience through training. Sessions are challenging, fun, and personalized.

Lesson 4-10These sessions build momentum and target athletic development. Athletes can expect: • Progressive overload in strength work (introducing tempo, circuits, and stability work) • Agility & reaction drills using cones, partner cues, or light ball work • Core & posture-focused routines • Mental focus drills (reaction time, visual tracking, quick decision-making) We also assess weekly progress and make drills more sport-specific (if applicable). Each session ends with a review of what’s been learned and next goals. These lessons are where confidence grows, and performance starts to show.

How it works

Lessons 2 and 3, we begin layering in structured progressions. The emphasis is on mastering form and introducing low-impact resistance training (bands, light weights). Each session includes: • Dynamic warm-up + ladder or cone drills • Strength circuits with progressive reps (e.g., squat to box, banded rows) • Speed & coordination drills (A-skips, lateral shuffles) • Short conditioning finisher Education continues: we discuss recovery, hydration, and goal setting. By the end of Lesson 3, they should feel empowered and confident in foundational movements.

Advanced training plan

Your first lessonThe first session starts with a comprehensive movement and performance assessment to identify asymmetries, inefficiencies, and strengths. I establish training goals, review injury history, and observe technical execution under mild fatigue. Key components include: • Mobility + movement screening • Position-specific or sport-specific drill sampling • Performance baselines (sprint times, jump height, change of direction) • Mental preparation assessment We finish with feedback and a game plan tailored to their level and objectives.

Lesson 11+What can an advanced athlete expect for the remaining sessions? Sessions become even more tailored and intense. These include: • Peak performance blocks focused on speed, power, and sport-specific endurance • Technical mastery under pressure (e.g., decision-making with fatigue or cognitive load) • Deload and tapering protocols if preparing for competition • Video breakdown + biomechanical feedback • Competitive simulations or scrimmage-based sessions This is where athletes are pushed to elite levels, with a holistic view: body, mind, and preparation are all trained and refined.

Lesson 4-10What can an advanced athlete expect from their fourth through tenth lessons? Here, we hit our stride with intensity and precision. Athletes can expect: • Advanced speed & agility training (reactive drills, game-like decision-making) • Power development (sled pushes, jumps, Olympic lifts if appropriate) • Customized strength splits (based on in-season vs. off-season needs) • Recovery protocols + HRV/fatigue monitoring • Tactical conditioning (high-effort intervals, simulated fatigue) Athletes receive weekly feedback and progress reports. The emphasis is on peaking performance and minimizing injury risk.

Lesson 2-3What can an advanced athlete expect from their second and third lessons? These sessions focus on dialing in mechanics and addressing weaknesses. Athletes begin a structured program with: • Explosive warm-ups (contrast prep, resisted drills) • Technical refinement drills (e.g., sprint form under resistance, landing mechanics) • Strength complexes or power circuits • Conditioning tailored to sport-specific demands We also introduce recovery strategies and talk nutrition and sleep as performance levers.

Youth players

Working with kidsWhen working with kids, I focus on creating a fun, energetic, and safe environment that helps them develop a love for movement and sport. I use age-appropriate language, games, and playful challenges to teach fundamental motor skills, coordination, and teamwork. Each session balances learning with creativity—whether it’s through obstacle courses, relay races, or simplified sport-specific drills. I prioritize positive reinforcement, patience, and clear structure to help young athletes build confidence, focus, and a strong foundation for future development.

Working with teenagersWhen working with teenagers, I focus on building trust, fostering discipline, and creating a positive environment where they feel challenged but supported. I adapt my lessons by incorporating competitive drills, small-sided games, and goal-setting conversations to keep them engaged. I also emphasize proper technique, injury prevention, and accountability, while tailoring the intensity to match their age, experience, and emotional maturity. My goal is to help them grow not just as athletes but as confident young individuals who understand the value of hard work, communication, and self-belief.

Hi, I’m Coach Frida Monsalvo I’m a former Division 1 soccer player, All-American, and SCC Defensive Player of the Year with a degree in Kinesiology and a deep passion for helping athletes reach their full potential. I currently serve as the Head Girls’ Soccer Coach at Glen A. Wilson High School and as an Assistant Coach for the Mt. SAC Women’s Soccer Program. With years of experience as both a player and coach, I specialize in sports performance, speed and agility, strength and conditioning, and injury recovery—especially for athletes returning from ACL injuries. I’ve worked with athletes of all levels and ages, from youth players learning the basics to competitive athletes preparing for the next level. My goal is to create an environment where every athlete feels seen, supported, and challenged. I believe in combining science-based training with intentional coaching that builds discipline, confidence, and a strong mindset. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to take your game to the next level, I’m here to guide you every step of the way
