To develop game day strength like the pros, you have to train like the pros!

This elite, 4-week training program is designed to get you much stronger and dominant, using many of the same workouts I do with my professional athlete clients from the NFL, NBA, NHL and more. If you want to play like the best, you need to train like the best.

This is Phase 2 of my 12-week Ultimate Athlete Program, focused on Power & Explosiveness.

Below is what you can expect from Phase 2, and if you dare to go beyond that, Phases 1 and 3 as well.

🔥 Phase 1: Hypertrophy & Endurance – Pack on muscle, restore movement, and prep for the intense work ahead.

💪 Phase 2: Strength & Strength Endurance – Develop raw strength and the ability to sustain it when it matters most—because real power lasts all game.

⚡ Phase 3: Power & Explosiveness – Train like you play. Increase speed, power, and game-changing explosiveness to dominate on game day.

This isn’t just another workout plan—it’s a pro-level blueprint for peak performance, built around functional movements and all three planes of motion. Because sports aren't played in straight lines.

Are you ready to take your game to the next level? Let’s get to work.
