Tactical, Tactical / MilitaryThe Strongest and Fastest You've Ever Been
Many tactical programs out there are a mix of random movements thrown together because they're hard. In reality, it doesn't do much besides leave you feeling broken, tired, and wondering why you're not making the progress you want.
Modern Athlete Strength provides the blueprint to building strength and stamina that last a lifetime. We will help you feel and perform better than you ever have before.
Here's how we do it:
With 20+ years of combined experience working with Division 1 athletes and the top 1% of the military, we know what it takes to be successful, and we know what is gimmicky BS labeled as "tactical."
Your training plan uses a methodology that accounts for an unpredictable schedule, stress imposed outside the gym, and the movement demands of the tactical population.
You will lift heavy, sprint, and move further and faster than you have before.
Most importantly, you will have a balanced approach to training that leaves you energized and ready to attack the next day.
You just need to commit to the process and we will take care of the rest.

Verified Athlete"MASS programming is by far the best programming I have ever utilized. Coing off a significant back injury, I thought I'd never lift again. The programing has me squatting and deadlifting very near the weights I was at prior to injury. I'm looking forward to continuing programming through MASS!"

Verified Athlete"Working with the team has kept me progressing not just in overall strength, but durability. The programming is challenging, adaptable, and most importantly, effective. Thanks to Brian and Ben, I'm not only able to keep up, but outperform folks half my age."
When you join a team you’re getting more than programming, you’re joining an online community.
