QB GameChanger Week
Combining the expertise of the world’s most advanced, multi-sport training complex, the TOTAL ATHLETE training program, the vast knowledge of a football legend, and experience of a National Championship quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner, the IMG Madden Football Academy presents GameChanger.
A week-long camp, GameChanger starts with check-in on Sunday. The five-day training program begins Monday morning with a comprehensive strength & flexibility assessment received through a Musculo-skeletal Evaluation to identify deficiencies’ or weaknesses addressed in the week’s training program. Athletes receive 3 hours of daily on-field instruction, as well, as individual instruction will be provided in the classroom during their afternoon session. Quarterbacks will receive individual training with IMG Madden Football Academy director Chris Weinke in the afternoon sessions. Each quarterback will train with IMG Performance Institute specialists to receive daily hour strength & movement training, except for Wednesdays when the focus will squarely be on regeneration techniques and exercises.
USA Today video on Chris Weinke and quarterback training:
This camp is offered year-round and is designed for athletes aged 13 and above.
"Weinke is cut out perfectly for a role like this...he was always known [in the NFL] as a guy who studied hard and had good mechanics."
Athletes will receive a one-hour massage, as well as courses in speed training, mental focus and preparation, nutrition, vision training, communication training, and Recruiting Education powered by NCSA during their week stay. Following their training experience, each athlete will receive access to a library of clips available from their training during throughout the week, as well, as an article on the IMG Academies Blog.
Do not miss out on the most advanced quarterback training program available, and your opportunity to join the IMG Madden Football Academy quarterback fraternity.
