This service is built for athletes and driven individuals seeking personalized, in-person coaching in Santa Barbara. Every client begins with a free evaluation and consultation to identify goals, training history, and specific needs. From there, Justin designs and implements a customized strength and conditioning plan, trained and refined together in his private gym setting.

Each athlete’s training focuses on long-term, sustainable performance through:

  • Speed and Strength Development: Building power, acceleration, and total-body strength with precise technique.

  • Conditioning and Resilience: Improving sport-specific endurance while reducing fatigue and injury risk.

  • Olympic Weightlifting Instruction: Learning proper mechanics and execution of Olympic lifts to develop explosive performance safely.

  • Performance Testing: Assessing maximum strength, vertical jump, and movement quality to determine starting points and guide individualized progression.

  • Periodization and Progressive Overload: Structuring training phases to ensure continuous improvement and measurable results.

Every detail is designed with purpose. Technique, consistency, and intelligent progression form the foundation of this process so each athlete can thrive in the sport and lifestyle they love.

Justin has been my strength and conditioning coach as I prepare for the LA 2028 Olympic Games. He takes a highly intentional approach to designing individualized and team lifting programs—focusing not only on building strength through specific exercises but integrating rehabilitation movements to promote long-term durability and performance. I’ve really appreciated his creative incorporation of diverse training methods, such as yoga, into our strength sessions. It’s clear that Justin’s background as a water polo athlete shapes his coaching style; he brings accountability, intensity, creativity, and a sense of fun to every workout. I’m grateful to work with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their individual or team performance.

Athlete of The Month June 2026

BEN FUHRER

Ben has been training with me for nearly two years, and during that time I’ve watched him develop into an exceptional athlete, teammate, and leader. He consistently brings intensity, focus, and a team-first attitude to every training session.

 

This year has been full of impressive accomplishments:

 

• Recruited to play D1 water polo at Loyola Marymount University.

• Captain of the Dos Pueblos High School boys water polo team which was a top team in the country.

• Team MVP.

• Two CIF Division I semifinal appearances.

• All-Channel League Co-MVP.

• Multiple ODP Coastal Team selections.

• 2nd place finish at National League Finals

 

In the gym, Ben has made huge strides in his strength and power:

• 365 lb Hex Bar Deadlift for 3 reps.

• Significant improvements in the Hang Clean.

• Major increases in maximal countermovement jump performance.

 

What stands out most about Ben is his consistency, mature and thoughtful communication, and genuine care for his teammates. He is the type of athlete who puts the team first, leads through his actions, and makes the people around him better. Over the past two years, he has earned every bit of his success through his commitment to the process and the people around him.

 

I am proud of you, Ben! Your success is well earned. 💪
