A Little Bit of Information About Epic Fitness & Performance

All workouts apply scientific research with proven strength and conditioning techniques to allow you to achieve your fitness goals. We incorporate sports performance methods to people of all ages and fitness levels by combining effective coaching with a fun and creative training style that includes bodyweight exercises, weightlifting, cardiovascular conditioning, and restorative joint mobility work. E.F & P. is passionate about incorporating Kettlebell Training into your fitness workout. Your needs and an Olympic athlete’s differ by degree not kind. Increased fitness is as important to the world’s best athletes and to our grandparents. The same methods that create an optimal response in the Olympic or professional athlete will optimize the same response in the elderly.

We employ free weights, such as Kettlebells, Dumbells, Olympic Bars and Medicine Balls. We incorporate bodyweight exercises using rings, boxes, and pull-up bars. Many days you will be training outdoors. We will utilize the wonderful resources that are close to us: Local Roads, Waterworks Park, Bike Trail, & Village Basketball Courts.

Training on Your Feet Hippocrates, the father of scientific medicine, claimed, "Walking is man's best medicine." I absolutely concur. Since most sports require athletes to stand, walk, run, and jump, we believe that's how our clients should train - on their feet.
