What Athletes Have to Say About Working Out at APEX
We love seeing all the different athletes come and workout at APEX, but more than that, we love seeing them enjoy themselves working out with friends, teammates and even their competition all to become the best version of themselves
What is APEX Athlete Development?
This is for all committed athletes, ages 14+, who want to train like they’re at the next level – like college. We’re here to help athletes improve performance and continue to develop their foundation of athleticism in all sports. Most sports have plenty of time spent in both practice and games where athletes will work on explosiveness, reactive strength and speed (all good things). However, that practice time neglects building foundational strength and, most importantly, workload capacity. Looking at the performance model, if you take away the bases of foundational strength and workload capacity, an athlete’s pyramid of performance is much smaller, creating a higher risk for injury and limiting top end performance potential. At APEX PWR, we’re all about simulating the collegiate & professional weight room experience with high level performance training programs every athlete will need to do in college and beyond.
Who this is for
Any elite athlete (or athletes that want to be elite) looking to increase speed, strength, agility, power & vertical jump. All sports place demand on the body. Having a good strength & conditioning program is important to offset the repetitive demands & decrease injury risk.
When is it?
We have sessions daily, Monday – Friday. It is open gym style, with an APEX PWR trainer or physical therapist always there facilitating, so athletes can show up between 2:30-5pm, but should start their workout no later than 4p to be finished by 5p. See the full schedule below.
What to expect
We take your sport, ability level & experience into consideration when writing your program. This program is 2 workouts per week, Each being 50-70 minutes. We teach proper mechanics, principles of performance training & injury prevention. The program progresses over time to maximize performance improvements.
How much is it?
Our membership for Elite Athlete Performance Training is $197/mo for 2x/week custom workouts. Or drop in to experience it before committing to a membership. See options below.

What Does our
Elite Athlete Performance Program Focus On?
- Injury Prevention – We’ve been treating physical therapy patients since 2014, from middle school to professional athletes. We’ve implemented all the latest research into this program to help people decrease their injury risk as much as possible, including common injuries like ACL tears, ankle sprains, hamstring pulls, shoulder injuries and more.
Strength – One of the best ways to decrease injury risk, is through strength training. Strength is a building block for athletes in any sport, any age. Our programs will help your athlete, safely and effectively, build muscle to help them be stronger throughout their sport. We do this through bodyweight movement, weights, medicine balls and resistance bands, ensuring proper technique before making things more difficult.
- Mobility / Stability – Some athletes need to increase flexibility, range of motion and mobility. This will allow for speed, strength and explosiveness increases. Other athletes need to be more stable at a moments notice. We incorporate both mobility & stability in all workouts.
- Agility – No matter the sport, dedicating training to fast-twitch muscle fibers will help athletes develop all around athleticism and blow by their competition.
- Endurance – Every sport requires endurance so that the athlete can continue to push when energy is low. We will develop both cardiovascular and muscular endurance during this program so your athlete can stand out all game long.
- Explosiveness – Adding explosive training principles allows an athlete to improve relative strength and create more force, resulting in improvements in things like, vertical jump, broad jump & top end performance.
- Body Control – Athletes are growing and always a work in progress. This program is dedicated to helping your athlete improve their ability to control their body through space, especially when fatigued.
Which is More Important, Strength or Speed?
Different sports place a different demand on each athlete. Many athletes spend their time working on speed or speed-strength, while others focus solely on strength or strength-speed. Some of this comes naturally with the sport, practice time and games or competitions. Each element of the Force Velocity Curve is important and it is most ideal for an athlete to increase the entire curve outward. This compliments the Performance Model pyramid shown above and creates a well-rounded athlete. Our athlete development approach emphasizes all parts of the Force Velocity Curve through a variety of exercises and movements involving bodyweight, resistance bands, weights and medicine balls. We utilize all areas of our facility, that has 2000 sqft of turf, weight floor and 30 foot ceilings.
