Become a Certified SSP Coach & Learn How to Transform Weak Athletes into BEASTS, Grow a 6 Figure Business, & Ultimately, Change YOUR OWN Life.
Coach,
If you are constantly seeking self improvement as a Coach so you can better serve your athletes then you've come to the right place.
I firmly believe that great Coaches are always in search of the slight edge; constantly seeking ways to improve their knowledge in training and business because as I always say, "Good enough is the death of Greatness."
And of course, as a Coach, you are consistently challenging your athletes, pushing them to get better. If we expect greatness from our athletes, then first & foremost we expect greatness from ourselves. That is where The SSPC Cert comes into play, giving you the opportunity to learn the proven training methods I have been using for 20+ years to build BEAST athletes with a successful training business.
Since 2008 I've been consulting with and certifying coaches from all around the world. I've worked with Coaches who range from the private sector to the University sector of all levels (D3, D2 and D1 Coaches) as well as Naval Special Warfare, The FBI and more. Now is your opportunity to learn these trusted and proven methods from anywhere in the world, no matter where you live.

Running a Business & Coaching has Changed Dramatically through the Years
The way I coach today has changed through the years (I began coaching in 1995) and quite dramatically through these recent years. Along with running a warehouse gym, the business side of things has changed as well.
Coaches at the collegiate level have seen and experienced the volatility / lack of job security and so now more than ever before, college coaches MUST learn the business side of things, not just coaches in the private sector. Nothing is guaranteed at the college sector.
My buddy always tells me, "The only guarantee in college / professional strength & conditioning is that there are NO guarantees." That is an unfortunate truth and so you must be able to count on yourself first & foremost.
ALL Strength Coaches Must Learn to become their Own CEO
Looking at the private sector today compared to yester-year, the mindset of athletes and parents is different and with "Strength Coaches" on every other corner of every town, you do have "competition". You must learn how to thrive in a crowded marketplace while staying true to your core values. You will learn exactly how to do so at The SSPC Certification.
The Underground Strength Gym has had staying power because we focus on changing lives first & foremost. Success is NO accident. I look forward to sharing all of my training and business experiences with you so you can "plug and play" this system into your own.
You Will Learn the Proven Training Methods & Business Model to Help Your Business THRIVE
Our athletes often begin training with us in middle school or the early years of high school. They continue training with us until college, and then they return during every college break.
We are able to experience this type of loyalty from our athletes because our training methods and our genuine relationships truly changes lives. We don't need all the fads & gimmicks that the others "experts" are peddling. That is NOT what works for long term success.
Many of our athletes train with us for 6 or 7 years before going to college. You can't achieve that with poor training methods and poor communication skills.
The Skills you'll learn with The SSPC Cert will give you the tools you need to Transform Your business into a Long Term Success Machine.
You need systems in place, both for yourself and eventually, for your Coaches, which you will learn during The SSPC Certification.
- How to train an athlete on day 1 and progress them through your training
- How to communicate with parents and other coaches properly and effectively (the wrong communication will put you out of business)
- How to train athletes in your own gym, a place you're renting from or without a gym (outdoors, sports camps, etc).
- How to train athletes in groups while individualizing for them and giving them exactly what they Want AND Need.
- Learn how to adjust training for different age groups, different sports, different times of year (in season, off season, pre season, etc)
With so many fads and gimmicks out there, it's time to give yourself the training and business tools you need to take your passion and truly earn a living from it.
Looking forward to seeing you soon at The SSPC Certification!
