He got him ready — speed, strength and agility. And more than anything, he was in his head about confidence.

Not just teach it.

We test all four. We train all four. Objective, timed and tested. Physical change — no guesswork.

The Athletic Composite Score

Seven tests.One number.

We can put a number on how athletic your athlete is — and then move it. Seven tests, scored together into a single Athletic Composite Score.

Twelve weeks later we run the same seven and score it again, so "he seems faster" becomes a number that went up, next to the one it started at.

08Recovery

Rehab and training,
one building.

Physical therapy in the same room as the work, run off the same numbers — so nothing gets lost between the clinic and the floor.

    Hands-on therapy in the building, by our partner practice. No referral across town, no waiting list between you and the work.

  3. 03

  • Months of work as a line, not a memoryEach measurement charts itself, so progress is something you look at instead of something you take on faith.
  • A leaderboard they can place onWhere they stand against athletes their own age, their own gender, or everyone who trains here.

10The Official Shoe

The only shoe that
coaches every stride.

We proudly endorse the Antepes Muscle Runner as the official shoe recommended by Klemic Performance Method.

We recommend it because it does what a coach does. It works proper foot placement and gives direct feedback from the ground — not once a session, but on every single stride. Antepes call it Muscle Running™: the geometry puts an athlete on the forefoot and keeps them there, so the calf, Achilles and ankle get loaded the way sprinting actually loads them.

  • ForeStrike™Two densities of foam stack more cushion under the forefoot than under the heel, so the strike pattern is built into the shoe instead of nagged into the athlete.
  • ForeSpring™A dual-flex carbon plate set inside the foam — flexible where the foot pushes, rigid under the arch and heel where it shouldn't be collapsing.
  • HEELX™A heel counter that sits between the ankle bones and the Achilles. The heel stays locked; the tendon is left alone.
  • Forefoot Gain™At footstrike the heel is still 18mm off the ground, so heel striking is off the table and the ankle has to work its full range.

12Common Questions

Before you book.

The six we get asked most. The schedule is on the programs page, and there are another twenty-eight questions on the questions page.

Do we have to test in, or can we just start training?
Everybody tests in. Nobody trains here until we have measured how they move — a five-year-old and a professional go through the same door.
How old does my athlete need to be?
Five through the professional level. Young Guns (5–11) is coordination, body control and confidence — the foundation everything else is built on.
My athlete doesn't play football or run track. Does this still apply?
Acceleration, force production and change of direction decide outcomes in nearly every sport. Football, baseball, soccer, swimming, hockey, softball, lacrosse and track have all come through this room.
How often would we train, and how long until we see something?
Twelve-week cycles, re-tested at the end — so you get proof rather than a feeling. The exact weekly commitment is set at the gait analysis, around your athlete's age, sport and season.
My athlete is coming back from an injury.
A large part of what we do. There is physical therapy in the building, run by our partners at Spectrum Fitness Rehab & Peak Performance. Bring us the clearance and we'll build around it. How return to play works.
How do I find out what it costs?
It depends which program fits, and working that out is what the gait analysis is for. You'll see exact pricing when you book — or call and ask first.
