Our Story
The Beginning
At Speed Training Lab + High Performance Centre®, our story is one of passion and perseverance. Founded by Dr. Richard Bucciarelli, PhD, our journey began with his unwavering desire to optimize the testing and training of athletes. As a young varsity athlete who faced injuries himself, and the hopelessness that accompanied long recoveries, Bucciarelli envisioned a future where athletes could train at their best and recover even better.
The Journey
After his athletic career, Bucciarelli spent years as a fitness coach, working at the highest level of sport, both professionally and internationally. During this time, he realized the need for proven methods to train athletes that would yield maximum results in minimal time with optimum recovery. This realization fueled his drive to create the Speed Training Lab + High Performance Centre®.
Our Evolution
Driven by this vision, we have spent over 15 years refining our approach to athletic performance. Bucciarelli began running his own independent, controlled studies and started sharing his findings at sports science conferences around the world. His research grew. Bucciarelli’s relentless pursuit of knowledge and innovation has led to the discovery of some of the most effective methods for developing:
- Acceleration
- Speed
- Power
- Agility
- Endurance
Integrating Rehabilitation and Performance
A significant milestone in our evolution was realizing the critical integration of injury rehabilitation with performance optimization. Our holistic approach enables us to take athletes from the acute phase of their injury all the way through to returning to play, stronger, faster, and fitter than before.
