- Explosive power, total-body strength, and muscular endurance for higher jumps, harder impacts, and lasting performance.
- Superior agility, reaction time, balance, and neuromuscular efficiency to outmaneuver opponents and stay injury-free.
- Enhanced recovery, core stability, joint health, and overall athletic resilience for year-round peak performance.
- Trackable progress from your $75 initial evaluation through regular re-testing (laser-timed sprints, vertical/broad jumps, pro agility, chin-ups, grip strength, running mechanics).
- Sport-specific gains that directly boost performance in football, soccer, basketball, track & field, baseball, lacrosse, and more.
What the Combined Membership Includes:
- Unlimited access to integrated sessions blending speed & agility drills (laser-timed sprints, reactive agility, plyometrics, cone/ladder work) with strength & conditioning (compound lifts, metabolic conditioning, core training, mobility).
- Fully personalized programming based on your baseline evaluation, age, sport, position, goals, and progress.
- Ongoing monitoring and adjustments using Dashr laser timing, jump mats, video analysis, and strength benchmarks.
- High-energy small-group training in our facility with turf, weights, speed tools, and more (private/semi-private options available as upgrades).
- Accountability and motivation in a supportive community focused on real, measurable improvements. (Perfect for after-school athletes—check social media or contact us for any holiday/seasonal adjustments.)
- This membership suits youth (8+), middle school, high school, college-bound, and adult athletes seeking balanced, high-level development without splitting focus between speed and strength.
Speed & Agility Evaluation $75
The first step in joining Arms Athlete Performance is our mandatory $75 Initial Evaluation—a comprehensive baseline assessment designed to measure your (or your athlete's) current athletic profile and track meaningful progress over time.
This in-depth evaluation uses gold-standard testing protocols and equipment to provide objective data on speed, power, explosiveness, agility, strength, and movement efficiency.
Key components include:
- Dashr Laser-Timed Sprints — Precise 10-yard and 20-yard dash times (with optional 40-yard and 60-yard extensions) for accurate acceleration and speed metrics.
- Jump Mat Vertical Jump — Both static (countermovement) and dynamic jumps to assess lower-body power and reactive strength.
- 5-Hop Broad Jump — Measures multi-step explosive power and horizontal force production.
- 5-10-5 Pro Agility Shuttle — Classic change-of-direction test (also known as the 20-yard shuttle) to evaluate quickness, deceleration, and re-acceleration.
- Max Chin-Ups — Upper-body pulling strength and muscular endurance benchmark.
- Grip Strength — Hand and forearm strength assessment, a key indicator of overall power potential.
- Running Analysis — Video-based breakdown of sprint mechanics to identify strengths, imbalances, and areas for technical improvement.
- These metrics establish a clear starting point, allowing us to create a fully personalized training plan tailored to your goals—whether that's faster sprints, higher jumps, quicker cuts, greater strength, or sport-specific dominance.
- No guesswork. Just data-driven results.
