Atlantic Sports Performance - Bridgewater

🚪 ASP REMINDER — FRONT DOOR ENTRY ONLY

Hey ASP family! A quick but important reminder regarding entering HB Studios outside of regular building hours.

For all ASP sessions, please enter through the FRONT DOOR only.

Even if another door happens to be open, please do not enter through the side doors or any other entrance in the building. Additionally, other tenants of HB Studios cannot provide access to ASP athletes or families. Coach Vince will be the only person letting ASP members into the facility for their sessions.

This is especially important when HB Studios is otherwise closed.

It comes down to respect, safety and supervision — respect for the facility we are fortunate to call home, respect for the staff and other businesses operating within it, and making sure I know exactly who is entering the building while athletes are under my supervision.

For each session, I’ll be at the front doors for the first 5 minutes to let everyone in.

Running late? No problem at all! Just send ASP a quick DM on Facebook or Instagram, and I’ll come let you in when you arrive.

We have an incredible space and community at HB Studios, and being great stewards of that space is part of what ASP is all about.

Thank you, everyone! ❤️

— Coach Vince

There’s a story about two men sitting together on a park bench as evening began to fall.

Behind them, a lamplighter quietly made his way down the street, lighting one lamp after another.

Eventually, the man disappeared into the darkness. They could no longer see him—but they could still trace exactly where he had been by the trail of light he left behind.

That is the kind of life I want our athletes to build at ASP.

Not one that demands attention.
Not one that needs constant recognition.
But one that leaves every room, every team, every teammate and every person a little brighter than they found them.

This morning, our boys were up early for a 6:45 AM hill start.

They showed up while much of the world was still sleeping. They climbed, worked, encouraged one another and continued forward when the hill asked difficult questions of them.

The physical work matters—but the person being shaped through that work matters even more.

Every time you choose discipline over comfort, encouragement over criticism, service over selfishness and courage over fear, you light another lamp.

You may not always recognize the influence you are having.

Keep walking anyway.

Keep showing up.

Keep lighting the way for the people coming behind you.

Because long after the workout is finished and long after people can no longer see where you began, they will still be able to recognize you by the light you left behind.

Proud of these young men this morning. 🖤

Run far. Climb together. Leave light behind.

Today, Claire and I had the opportunity to compete together in the HYROX Atlantic Series at 902 Athletics—and I could not be more proud of her.

I’ve written about Claire many times before, so many of you already know the adversity she has faced over the past year. A significant back injury, frustrating setbacks, and challenges that prevented her from training at the level she had been accustomed to for so long at ASP.

But through all of it, Claire kept showing up.

We set a lofty goal for this year, and she absolutely blew me away with how adaptable, committed, and resilient she was throughout the entire training process. She was willing to adjust expectations, trust the process, and continue finding a way forward—even when the path looked completely different than she had originally imagined.

Today, when adversity presented itself again, she navigated it with incredible composure and still delivered an exceptional performance.

Claire, I am so beyond proud of you.

Not simply because of what you accomplished today, but because of everything it took for you to stand on that starting line in the first place.

And for me, the most meaningful moment came after the wall balls, when I was able to take my son with me across the finish line.

So much of this process—the early mornings, the difficult training sessions, the sacrifices, and the decision to keep showing up—is for my children.

I want them to grow up understanding that difficult things are worth pursuing. That adversity does not have to stop you. That commitment matters. And that the example we set through our actions will always speak louder than anything we could ever tell them.

To finish today with my son beside me was something I will never forget.

Claire, same time next year is not a question.

It is a certainty. ❤️

🚨 ASP Public Service Announcement 🚨

As many of you know, HB Studios is home to several incredible businesses and communities. During closed hours, each tenant is responsible for welcoming and supervising their own members into the facility.

While it may seem helpful to let someone in behind you, we ask that members allow coaches, instructors, and business owners to welcome their own communities into the building. This helps keep everyone safe, protects the facility, and ensures we know who belongs where.

So if you see someone waiting outside, don’t worry—they’re probably exactly where they’re supposed to be. Their coach, instructor, or business owner will let them in shortly.

And once again, for the people in the back…

🚫 Please do not yell “STRANGER DANGER!”
🚫 Please do not conduct security screenings.
🚫 Please do not recreate this video.

This was all done in good fun to highlight an important safety practice for everyone who calls HB Studios home.

Thank you for helping us keep our facility safe, welcoming, and community-focused. ❤️
