The Trench Academy We have engineered our programs for developing Offensive and Defensive Lineman into powerful, reliable, and recruitable athletes.

Our approach is a lifestyle change, both physically and mentally to mature the rising athlete into the ultimate prospect. The Trench Academy one of the top football training programs in the country. The reason why is simple: There’s an emphasis on details, ex*****on, and perfecting the little things. It is a college program offered to high school ball players. The Program includes weight training, speed training, explosive measurement and production, injury prevention protocol, in-season treatment and therapy, position specific technique training, film, study, and nutrition/ supplementation.

Meet the Coaches: Coach Luke 🟢⚫️ Luke Gage

For Coach Luke, The Trench story comes full circle.

He first heard about The Trench in 2014 as an athlete, with Coach Taylor serving as a mentor early in his journey. After going on to play college football at the University of Central Arkansas, Luke knew exactly where he wanted football to take him next. When his playing days were over, he wanted to help develop the next generation.

Today, Coach Luke serves as an Assistant Strength & Speed Coach and is one of the first faces many athletes see when they enter The Trench program. He leads nearly all of our Ramp-Up sessions, coaches speed sessions on the main field, and runs our Defensive Back Academies.

From Trench athlete to Trench coach, his passion for developing athletes has never changed.

“I wouldn’t give it up for anything.”

Get to know Coach Luke. 🤝

COMBINE PREP IS DIFFERENT AT THE TRENCH. 🎯

This is Week 4 of last year’s Pro Day Prep, and this is where we start taking an even deeper dive into the details that separate a workout from actual combine preparation.

Every week we attack it from every angle:

⚡ Combine-specific technique
🏃 Speed development
💪 Strength & power
🏈 Position-specific work
🎥 Film study & review
🧘 Yoga & recovery
🍽️ Meals & recovery resources

And we don’t just run the drills and call it a day.

Everything is filmed.

We’re breaking down starts. Transitions. Foot placement. Body angles. Every tenth of a second. Every detail that could be the difference between a good number and a number that changes your future.

Then on Sundays, we recover, eat, get our yoga work in and sit down together to study the film. We look at where we started, where we are now, and exactly what needs to improve going into the next week.

By the time Pro Day comes around, the combine drills shouldn’t feel like a test.

You’ve studied them. You’ve repped them. You’ve watched yourself perform them. You know exactly how to execute them.

That’s the standard.

IN-SEASON PROTOCOL 🏈💪

The season started. The work doesn’t stop.

The goal in-season isn’t to beat your body down. It’s to keep you strong, explosive, healthy, and ready to perform when Friday night comes.

Maintain the strength you built all offseason. Keep your speed. Take care of your body. Clean up the details of your game.

You worked too hard all offseason to lose it during the season.

Train. Recover. Perform. Repeat.

TRENCH PLAYER OF THE WEEK 🏆💪

Christopher Calkin came up BIG for Berkeley Prep this week! The big man showed off the hands with a PICK 6 and helped the defense finish the night with a SHUTOUT. 😤🔒

DL making game-changing plays with the ball in his hands… we LOVE to see it.

Extension creates separation. Separation lets you make plays. 💥

Get those hands inside, lock the arms out, control the OL, then SHED and GO FIND THE BALL.

You can’t make the play if you’re still stuck on a block.

We’re working the details that show up on Saturdays. Get in the lab and sharpen your craft. 🧪

MEET THE COACHES | COACH KEENAN 💪🏈

Coach Keenan’s story with The Trench goes way deeper than just coaching here.

He’s been part of the program for 15 years, first walking through the doors at just 9 years old. He grew up in the system, developed through it, went on to play college football at the University of Mount Union, and has now been coaching at The Trench for the past 3 years as a Performance Coach.

That experience matters.

Keenan knows firsthand what this program can do for an athlete, not just physically, but in the way it teaches discipline, consistency, accountability and how to carry yourself away from the field.

His passion for the game and for this program comes from living it.

The goal has always been bigger than football:

Build better athletes. Build better men.
