About
Ascend’s mission is to be synonymous with excellence by empowering everyday athletes—men and women balancing family, careers, and life’s demands—with meaningful development and unwavering support.
[ OUR APPROACH ]
At Ascend, athletes experience a collaborative coaching and training journey.
This approach integrates every aspect of their sport, including nutrition, strength and conditioning, mental performance, and skill development.
Through authentic relationships and a holistic coaching approach, Ascend helps athletes overcome obstacles, push their limits, and achieve their goals. We are deeply committed to fueling their tenacity and cultivating lasting strength, resilience, and success—both in sport and in life.
Driven By Purpose.
Defined By Excellence.
[ THE PROCESS ]
-
Every success story begins with a goal. At Ascend, athletes start their journey with a personalized consultation.
During this interview, we explore your goals—or help you identify them—and collaboratively create a comprehensive framework for success that takes into account all relevant aspects of your life. This consultation also helps us determine which objective data points are essential for guiding your training and coaching, allowing us to provide tailored recommendations as you move forward.
-
Interested in a consultation only? No problem. At Ascend, we understand that personal training and/or coaching isn’t the right fit for every athlete. Some may simply want expert guidance and insight to better understand their goals and track their progress—and we’re here to support that.
-
After the consultation, athletes begin their recommended program and are connected with the Ascend Coaching Team through an online training app, where their personalized block program is built and assigned. This platform allows athletes to track and manage their progress and stay connected in real time with Ascend supporting you every step of the way.
