Axis Sport Performance has been training athletes in Howard County for over ten years. Our mission is to provide professional quality strength and conditioning to athletes and adults of all ages and skill levels.
The structure of our programs, combined with our coaches' constant attention to proper form and technique, play an intricate and indispensable role in performance enhancement and injury prevention. Whether a high level athlete seeking a competitive edge or adult looking to get and stay in shape, Axis is the place to be.
Programming
Our programs are based on science, period. We are uninterested in the latest gimmicks or throwing a bunch of stuff against a wall to see what sticks. We implement time-tested, scientifically proven means and methodologies to achieve the best results for all of our populations; youth, high school, college, or adult.
Results
The numbers speak for themselves. Over the past ten years athletes in our Complete Athlete Development program have averaged the following improvements:
20 Yard Sprint – .16 faster
Pro Agility – .30 faster
Vertical Jump – 2″ higher
Broad Jump – 4″ farther
Motivation
Our small group setting allows us to maintain low coach to athlete ratios while enhancing motivation. Working out by yourself or one-on-one with a personal trainer can get monotonous and stale. Placing athletes in groups enhances competition, camaraderie, and the overall training environment, leading to greater effort and results over time.
Coaching
Even the best program won’t deliver optimal results without quality coaching behind it. Axis prides itself on teaching technique and incessant attention to detail during all training sessions. Our coaches’ experience can’t be matched, either. Axis coaches’ collective experience at the collegiate and professional level includes time with the Baltimore Ravens, Michigan Wolverines, Maryland Terrapins, Arizona State Sun Devils, Virginia Tech Hokies, and Utah State Aggies. Quite simply, we know what it takes to get to the next level, because we’ve been there.
I always enjoyed coming to Axis because the coaches are so knowledgeable, but also funny and kind, and made me want to get better every day. I know I would not be where I am today athletically if I hadn’t had gone to Axis for so many years.
My sons have also worked out at Axis for several years. They’ve learned how to lift weights safely and effectively and the value of working hard. The coaches have also provided great role models for them both in the gym and in life. They care about the kids and invest a lot of themselves in their success.
All of the trainers are excellent. The classes are intense, yet fun. I’m almost 50 and feel that I am in better shape now than I was when I was 40.
The workouts at Axis are the best health and fitness experience of my life! I exercised on my own for many years and have worked with private trainers in the past. The Axis small group program works wonders for me. I could never work out this effectively on my own.
I started going to Axis a few years ago. One session and I was hooked! The classes are just what I needed. I have seen tremendous strength gains and I love the community that I found at Axis.
