Two thirteen-year-old shortstops can need opposite things. A program that treats them the same is guessing on at least one of them.
Most athletes train. Few follow a structured development plan. Our work is getting your family out of the confusion and into clarity.
We measure sprint speed, change of direction, strength, and how your athlete controls a landing. You see every number. So does she.
The plan is built from your athlete's actual gaps, not from what an average player might need.
For most young softball players that means first-step power, progressive strength, and rotational work that turns leg drive into bat speed.
We test again on a schedule and put the before-and-after in front of you. Improvement is shown, not promised.
One system sits underneath every step — the Athlete Academy Standard™ — the framework our evaluations, programming, and athlete reports are all built on.
Evaluation Day is the group doorway; an assessment request is the direct one. Either way, the numbers come first.

A structured plan, and a coach who checks the work.
Best for the athlete who trains hard but has never had a plan written for them.
$349 per month
Sport-specific programming with one-to-one coaching time.
Best for the club athlete training year-round who wants to be coached, not just programmed.
$699 per month
The whole development picture, managed across a full season.
Best for the athlete chasing a college roster spot, where preparation has to be managed year-round.
All three run the same system — measure, program to the gaps, re-measure. What changes is how much coaching time comes with it. Billed monthly, cancel any time. Training in person at Performance Academy in Apex is priced by schedule — ask and we'll walk you through it.
Wondering whether it works? See the measured before-and-after numbers from four athletes.
He trained me over thousands of miles, many different weight rooms, quarantines, limited equipment and no equipment, time zones, and a heavy travel schedule. I walked into spring and summer 2021 in the best physical shape possible.
Before, if she miss-hit a ball it would be a pop-up, it would be an out. Now she has gotten so strong that a miss-hit still has the muscle behind it to put balls that were previously outs over the fence. The changes I have noticed are more power, more explosiveness, more aggression in her game. Learning how to move and control her body has taken her skills to the next level — from a great player to a higher-level player.
When I needed someone to train me at the highest level possible, work around lingering injuries, and know I have the propensity to overwork myself, the choice was a no brainer. I walked into spring and summer 2021 in the best physical shape possible.
One of the things I noticed was her accountability for working out. Before, when she was younger, dad has got to drag her a little bit — it is not as exciting. Having you there to hold her accountable, and for her to see the results, really set her off. Now it is not a big deal; we can say we are going to go work out and she is excited to be there. Getting a teenager to do anything is not the easiest thing in the world.
No. Her team and her hitting or pitching coach develop the softball; we develop the athlete the softball runs on. Families keep their schedule and we fit the development dose around it, including easing off in tournament weeks.
It starts from your athlete’s measured baselines — sprint speed, change of direction, strength, and movement control — and it changes when her re-test numbers change. Nothing is prescribed off a chart.
It depends on the right program for your athlete, so we discuss it directly rather than posting a menu. Contact us and you will get plain numbers and zero pressure.
