The Path Forward

FROM PROSPECT TO ELITE

We've walked this path ourselves as athletes and spent 50+ years helping others do the same. We know what coaches look for, what scouts measure, and what separates the athletes who make it from the ones who don't.

🌱

BUILD THE FOUNDATION

Ages 8–14 develop elite habits early. Proper mechanics, supplement discipline, and injury-resistant bodies that give them an edge before high school even begins. Personalized development plans that grow with your athlete.

🎓

D1 SCHOLARSHIP READY

We prepare athletes to arrive at campus already performing at collegiate standards. Combine-ready testing numbers, film-ready technique, and the physical conditioning that earns D1 scholarships. Our athletes have committed to Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame, and 50+ programs.

🏆

PRO RANKS & BEYOND

From college to the league. Draft combine preparation, professional-level recovery protocols, and the mentality it takes to compete at the highest level. We've trained athletes now in the NFL, MLB, and professional boxing.

Every sport. Every gender. One standard: excellence. Football, basketball, baseball, soccer, hockey, lacrosse, volleyball, track, swimming, tennis, golf — if you compete, we'll get you there.

The APEX Advantage

GENETIC TESTING. BUILT INTO EVERYTHING.

Every APEX athlete gets a full genetic panel — not as a gimmick, but as the foundation for every decision we make. Your athlete's DNA tells us what no evaluation alone ever could.

⚡

Training & Performance

Genetic markers reveal whether your athlete is wired for explosive power, endurance, or both. Frank uses this to design speed and agility protocols that work with their body — not against it. We stop guessing and start building around who they actually are.

🎬

Recruiting & Exposure

All the training in the world means nothing if the right coaches never see your athlete. Shayne builds a custom recruiting plan, produces professional highlight videos, creates targeted school lists, and drafts coach outreach emails — so your athlete gets the exposure they've earned.

❄️

Recovery & Injury Prevention

Genetic testing identifies inflammation markers, soft tissue injury risk, and how quickly your athlete recovers. Patrick uses this to calibrate recovery protocols — cryo frequency, infrared timing, and load management — so we're protecting them before injuries happen.

🧬

Natural Sports Healthcare

As a Naturopathic Doctor, Patrick reads the genetic panel through a natural sports medicine lens — sleep quality markers, stress response, hormonal tendencies, and more. This shapes the holistic care plan that supports the whole athlete, not just the one on the field.

Most programs train every athlete the same way. APEX trains every athlete the way their body was designed to be trained. That's the difference between good and elite.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

How does the consultation work?

Book a free 30-minute consultation online — pick any available time that works for you. You'll meet with Patrick to discuss your athlete's goals, current level, sport, and what you're looking for. No commitment, no payment required. If APEX is a fit, we'll walk you through the evaluation and get started.

What's included in the evaluation?

Everything. Full body assessment and movement screen by Patrick (Naturopathic Doctor & BCHHP), genetic testing panel mapping your athlete's DNA for performance, recovery, nutrition, and injury risk markers, natural sports medicine review, supplement protocol built around genetic results, video-recorded sport-specific analysis by Frank reviewing speed, agility, balance, and explosiveness, recruiting strategy session with Shayne covering school lists, highlight video planning, and coach outreach, injury prevention assessment, performance dynamics evaluation, and a personalized development roadmap built around who your athlete is at a cellular level. This evaluation (including genetic testing) is currently $549 during our Spring Training Sale — or FREE when you sign up for any training program.

How does genetic testing work and why does it matter?

We collect a simple, non-invasive DNA sample during the evaluation. Results come back with markers for muscle fiber composition, metabolic efficiency, nutrient absorption, soft tissue injury risk, inflammation response, recovery speed, and more. Patrick reads the panel as a Naturopathic Doctor and translates it into actionable protocols — Frank adjusts training around power vs. endurance markers, Patrick builds supplement protocols and calibrates recovery and natural sports healthcare around their genetic tendencies, and Shayne ensures the right college programs are seeing your athlete's development. It's the difference between a generic program and one built around your athlete's actual biology.

What ages do you work with?

We work with athletes ages 8–22. Our programs are tailored to each athlete's developmental stage and sport-specific needs.

Are sessions really 1-on-1?

Yes. Sessions are always 1-on-1 or in small pods of no more than 3 athletes. Pods are only formed when athletes have similar goals and sports. We never do large group classes.

How does payment work?

After your free consultation, we'll send you a secure payment link via Square. Monthly plans are billed monthly with no commitment. Commitment packages (3, 6, or 12 months) are paid upfront — this locks in your savings and your spot. Afterpay available to split any payment into 4 interest-free installments.

What are the monthly progress reports?

Every month, all three specialists assess your athlete's improvement across speed, balance, explosiveness, recovery, supplement adherence, recruiting progress, and overall development. You receive a detailed progress report with updated testing numbers, areas of improvement, and adjustments to the personalized development plan. Week to week, training is adjusted based on results and body to continually dial into your athlete's needs. Parents have full portal access to track everything in real-time.
