Year Round Sport-Specific Training
The J2FIT Strength and Conditioning Program is a unique sport-specific training solution, developed for student athletes of all ages and abilities. J2FIT delivers accredited strength and conditioning coaches, a safe and formal training environment, and scientific-based programming to athletes. The objective of J2FIT Strength and Conditioning Program is to develop your athletes and teams in the gym so they can be better on and off the field.
This program is ideal for:
- All high school and college students (do not have to be an athlete)
- All student athletes during the summer and off-season months.
- High school athletes with no formal strength and conditioning program at school.
- College athletes while traveling or home for summers and school breaks.
- Sport coaches looking to build stronger, more injury resilient athletes.
- Athletic departments opting to outsource their strength and conditioning needs.
Programming Design and Philosophy
Athletes need to be athletic, prior to stepping onto the field. A heightened athleticism provides you with the fundamental attributes of strength, power, balance, agility, proprioception, endurance, and stamina to attack sport practices safely and optimally. Our mission as your strength coaches is to prepare you mentally and physically for the skills that will be learned as you take the field. To be a great sport athlete you need two things: (1) a heightened physical fitness state, (2) the most optimal body you can have that was developed to meet the specific metabolic demand of your sport, and (3) hours and hours of sport practice. We will develop the first two aspects of what it takes to be a great athlete, and you playing your sport will handle the third.
Every training session, you will work to improve:
- Movement mechanics to decrease injury and move more efficiently.
- Plyometric training to create greater force outputs, resulting in you running faster, jumping higher, and being more explosive.
- Olympic weightlifting and power training to develop fast twitch athleticism to increase power production, essential to al athletes regardless of sport.
- Foundational strength training to develop complete musculature. Greater muscle equates to more capacity for increased performance, at any intensity, in any sport.
- Sport-specific accessory training to increase muscle size, strength, and endurance, all of which will have a direct correction to the movements done in your sport to make you a healthier and better athlete.
- Corrective exercises will be programmed throughout to reduce the likelihood of asymmetries, poor movement, and muscular imbalances; all of which can lead to nagging and even season-ending injuries.
- Metabolically-specific conditioning will be used in your training program to address the specific metabolic pathways that are necessary for your sport, in order to fully develop your strength and conditioning abilities.

Why J2FIT Student Athlete Strength and Conditioning
The J2FIT Strength and Conditioning Program was build by our coaches and cofounders under the same procedures that are used to run collegiate level strength and conditioning programs. Our coaches have high level coaching experience at the high school and collegiate levels, in the realms of strength and conditioning AND formal sports coaching. Their abilities to train, coach, and apply the specific metabolic demands your athletes need for their sport will make your athletes stronger and more resilient to injury; on and off the field.
We train individual athletes, teams, and everywhere in between. Please contact us with any other questions and concerns about our program.
