Personal Training We are a Strength and Conditioning Facility that take pride in getting our clients RESULTS.

Although Private One-on-One training still has its place, it can be inefficient and expensive. In order to ensure that you succeed at APEX, our Semi-Private classes are still very personal. You will be following your own program designed by one of our coaches. We will ensure that y

Quick Fix for Your Bench and Prevent Shoulder!

Try this band warm-up before your next Bench Day:

• Pull the band out → engage your lats + connect with leg drive
• Rip the band apart → lock in your upper back + retract shoulder blades
• Then carry that SAME tension into your actual bench sets

Save this and give it a try before your next workout 💪

Maintaining rotational capacity as we age isn't all just about performance in sports such as paddling or pickleball...

It's about staying mobile, coordinated, and resilient for as long as possible.

Believe it or not, the rotational pattern shows up in everyday life. The more we intentionally train it, the longer we stay in control of our bodies.

Here is how we coach it at APEX:

1. Perfect the hip hinge. Use a bench to block your knees from going forward and squatting down. Instead we want to shift the hips back and feel it in the hamstring and glutes.

2. Learn how to use your lats. Before loading the movement we teach clients to create tension through the upperbody. Bring your hands behind your body and imagine squeeze something in your armpits, or think about shoulder blades back and down. This helps to maintain a neutral spine and creates a more powerful brace through the core.

3. Load the movement. Progress to an RDL and try to apply the cues from above! You can do a few reps of the bench hip hinge immediately before each set until you own the movement.

We always prioritize practicing good technique and movement patterns before adding more weights.
