Crush your strength, physique, and performance goals faster than ever!
APEX is designed with one goal in mind: to turn you into a complete package of a human being.
To make you equal parts strong, jacked, powerful, and hard to kill.
To get you strong like a powerlifter, jacked like a bodybuilder, and powerful like an elite athlete.
Think: outlifting guys 20-lbs. heavier than you, out-sprinting and out-jumping guys 20-lbs. lighter than you, and being able to step into any workout or sport and dominate (and looking jacked while you're at it).
The programming in APEX is built around a science-backed, battle-tested combination of 1) heavy lifting to boost your 1-RMs in the big lifts, 2) strategic power work to skyrocket your athleticism and power, 3) specialized hypertrophy work to get you pumped and jacked, and 4) mixed-modality conditioning to build up your work capacity and carve out an athletic physique.
So if your goals include smashing PRs, getting jacked, jamming in pick-up rec games, and sprinting fast, you’re in the right place. Hop on board today and crush your strength, physique, and performance goals ASAP!

Get APEX Training TeamNorfolk, Virginia
Verified Athlete"My front squat went from 300 to 345, bench from 290 to 320, and DL from 570 to 620. My vertical and speed have also improved and I've gone from 220 to 205 lbs. of solid muscle. What's great about APEX is you can do it as an athlete or as someone who just wants to be strong and powerful."
Hatsfield, Pennsylvania
Verified Athlete"I added 75 lbs. to my deadlift, 25 lbs. to my bench and 65 lbs. to my squat (also doing weighted pull-ups for reps). And the sprint sessions are lethal, I'm easily the fastest I've ever been and feeling extra springy from those contrast sets. Another thing is I feel so solid, durable, and mobile!"
Sports Performance Coach
Verified Athlete"One of the most comprehensive training plans I've ever done. My strength went up 30 lbs. in the deadlift, split squat, bench, and chins. My vertical also increased by 4 inches all while dropping 6% body fat and gaining 4 lbs. of muscle. Bonus, joints are feeling better than ever."
Former Professional Soccer Player
Verified Athlete"APEX has gotten me the best results I've ever gotten on a program by far. Everything's covered in it to improve my athletic performance on the field. My strength, speed, jump height, muscle gain, mobility, conditioning, and explosive power have all skyrocketed."
