BIO

Hi, I’m Coach Erica Mulholland

I’m a certified speed and strength trainer in the Tampa Bay area, serving youth female athletes in the Lutz/Land O’ Lakes Florida areas. My specialties are speed, agility, strength, ACL reduction, ACL sports recovery, and healing growth spurt injuries in female athletes.

As a 3x college All-American, Hall of Fame inductee for Johns Hopkins Women’s Soccer, and former US and Brazil semi-professional soccer player, I know what it takes to stay healthy, play at a high level, and have an edge in your performance. My passion for training and biomechanics took me to obtain my Master’s in Exercise Science in Performance Enhancement and Injury Reduction so I could help young girl athletes thrive.

I am a Certified Speed, Agility, and Strength Coach (CSCS) as well as an ACL recovery/return to play specialist in the Tampa Bay Area, Land O’ Lakes, Florida, who has been working with youth female athletes for 14 years. I specialize in preteen and teen female athlete strength and speed development, injury prevention and ACL return, and strength training to help heal growth spurt injuries. (BOOK A ONE-ON-ONE ASSESSMENT HERE)

My mission is to help young girls become strong and resilient through strength training, while inspiring them to love working out for life.

For my gym sessions, I focus on a small group setting (1-4 athletes at a time max), so I can provide the best quality coaching for each individual athlete.

My philosophy of training girls encompasses a long-term approach of meeting them where they are in their journey. It’s about doing the basics well, and recognizing that physical development takes time, patience, and work ethic.

 

If your daughter is looking to become fast, strong and CONFIDENT, and is ready for a detailed, professionally driven speed and strength training program, I would love to start this rewarding process with her.

BOOK HERE for your initial strength, speed and agility training assessment in Land O’ Lakes Florida. This is a one-on-one assessment designed specifically for youth female athletes. The athlete will be assessed on speed mechanics, agility, strength, balance, and common injury-risk patterns seen in female athletes. You will leave with a detailed report and a personalized physical development plan.
