Release. Restore. Re-engineer.
The R3™ Method is the framework behind every YP plan: release restrictions, restore control, then re-engineer sport-specific movement.
the framework behind every yp plan
A shape for the work between practices.
Most at-home training is a pile of random drills. A clip here, a circuit there — nothing connects, so the work rarely adds up to anything an athlete can feel on the field.
R3 gives the work a shape. A six-week arc moves in order: release what limits movement, restore the control to use that range, then re-engineer it back into the way the athlete actually plays. Each phase sets up the next, so the plan builds on itself instead of restarting every session.
It is the same framework behind every YP plan. The plan is personalized to the athlete, and it adapts as training continues — the shape stays, the details adjust.
R1
Release
Reduce restrictions and prepare the athlete to move better.
R2
Restore
Rebuild control, rhythm, balance, and confidence.
R3
Re-engineer
Connect the work back to sport-specific movement and skill.
Three phases, in order.
Each phase has a job. Together they move an athlete from preparing to move, to moving with control, to moving the way their sport demands.
Release
Reduce restrictions and prepare the athlete to move better.
- →mobility + movement prep sized to the athlete
- →range work before load, never the other way around
- →short daily prep that fits between practices
Restore
Rebuild control, rhythm, balance, and confidence.
- →balance, rhythm, landing control
- →single-leg and change-of-direction control
- →reps that build confidence under light speed
Re-engineer
Connect the work back to sport-specific movement and skill.
- →sport-specific speed + skill connections
- →first-step quickness tied to game movement
- →challenges that carry the work back into play
Six weeks with a shape.
The arc weights each block toward one phase — but the phases overlap, and the plan adapts as training continues. Weeks lean Release, then Restore, then Re-engineer, so the work compounds toward sport.

R3, answered.
What is the R3™ Method?
The R3™ Method is the framework behind every YP plan: release restrictions, restore control, then re-engineer sport-specific movement. It gives a six-week plan a clear shape instead of a list of random drills.
Who is the R3™ Method for?
It is built for youth athletes. A plan is personalized to the athlete's sport, age, goal, schedule, and available equipment, so the work fits where they are rather than a one-size-fits-all routine.
Do you need equipment to follow it?
No. Plans are built around the equipment you have, so they can run with little or none. NeoBall by YP is optional and designed for quieter indoor skill work when you want extra at-home touches.
How long are R3 sessions?
Sessions are short and designed to fit between practices. Length varies by athlete and phase, and the plan adapts as training continues so the work stays manageable week to week.
Does the R3™ Method replace team practice?
No. It is built to sit alongside team practice, not replace it. R3 focuses on the work between practices so athletes arrive with better reps, and coaches can support the plan when they choose to.
Is an R3 plan sport-specific?
Yes. The re-engineer phase connects the work back to sport-specific movement and skill, so the mobility and control built earlier in the plan carry into the way the athlete actually plays.
