Testimonial


It is rare that I post anyone’s testimonials. Most of the ones I won’t post are before and after pictures and weight loss testimonials. The main goal of our strength and conditioning program is performance: Specific, measurable performance. The appearances are a secondary benefit but are not the primary purpose of what we do.

To quote one on my favorites from Attila the Hun: Superficial goals lead to superficial results.

We have been talking a lot about performance enhancing programming. One on my clients posted these comments on the Michigan Mountain Bike Association forum: http://www.mmba.org/viewtopic.php?t=45147

Why do we get the results we do?

The next link is some physiology gobbledygook that all coaches know inherently and use based on experience: http://home.hia.no/~stephens/interval.htm

We base our training on CrossFit methodology. Constantly varied functional movements executed at high intensity. The workouts are non-sustainable, highly intense efforts that illicit the broadest training responses possible.
