Athletes · Coach Jamal Powers

High school to the NBA. Same standard.

I've trained 30+ athletes, from kids chasing a varsity spot to pros in the league. I'm an athlete too, so I know what you're after: more power, more speed and a body that holds up all season.

How I train athletes

Built in 12-week blocks. Built to last.

This is how strength coaches train pros, and it's how I train everybody on this page. Every 12 weeks we test, adjust and start the next block. No random workouts. No guessing.

01

Power and speed

First step, vertical, change of direction. We train the stuff that shows up on film.

02

Strength

Real lifting, coached right. A stronger body moves faster and takes contact better.

03

Pre-hab and durability

Knees, ankles, hips, shoulders. Every session protects what keeps you on the floor.

04

Conditioning

Built for your sport and your position. Fourth quarter legs, every game.

05

Fuel and recovery

I'm an FDN-P too. Food, sleep and supplements are part of the plan, not an afterthought.

06

Testing

We measure, so we know it's working. Numbers at the start, numbers at the end of every block.

Off-season

Build it.

  • Bigger strength and power blocks
  • Speed and movement work
  • Fix what got beat up last season
  • Add size where you need it
In-season

Keep it.

  • Short, sharp sessions around your game schedule
  • Hold strength without getting heavy-legged
  • Recovery so you're fresh on game day
  • Pre-hab to stay on the floor
Your coach

An athlete coaching athletes.

I've been an athlete my whole life, so I coach the way I'd want to be coached. Train hard, train smart and remember: safety over errthang. You don't get better sitting out hurt.

CSCS for the strength side. USAW L1 for the barbell. FDN-P for the fuel and recovery side. One coach, one plan.

For parents

Your kid's in good hands.

You want them stronger, faster and healthy enough to keep playing. Here's what you get with me.

Real communication

You'll know the plan, why we're doing it and how they're progressing.

Safe progressions

Young athletes earn the heavy stuff. We build technique first, then load.

Durability first

Pre-hab in every session, so they spend the season playing instead of rehabbing.

Habits off the court

Food, sleep and recovery they'll carry to the next level.

From the athletes

Hear it from them.
