Testimonials

Since starting strength and conditioning training at Virtus, I have seen an incredible transformation in myself. As a volleyball player, I needed a program that would help to build strength safely, improve agility, and prevent injury. The coaches at Virtus have done exactly that and more.

My vertical jump has noticeably improved, going from 9 inches to 17 inches! What I appreciate most is how the Virtus team creates a positive, encouraging environment that’s still very focused on proper form and long-term athletic development. They truly understand how to train young athletes the right way.

Virtus is an amazing place to get stronger and make friends. Since starting, I’ve doubled the amount of weight I can lift for both squats and trap bar deadlifts. I used to need a band to do pull-ups, and now I can knock out 10 in a row without one!

The strength training program here is seriously effective, but what really sets Virtus apart are the coaches. They’re incredibly attentive and supportive and always watching to make sure your form is correct. Whether it’s something as small as having the wrong foot in front or not stretching far enough, they’re on it. That attention to detail has made a huge difference in my performance and has helped me stay injury-free.

Even beyond the training, what keeps me coming back is the community. I’ve made so many great friends here, and I actually look forward to showing up every week, not just for the workouts, but because of the people.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jamie & Virtus Performance Club for just over a year. Within that year the work we’ve done together significantly contributed to the success I achieved. This past year saw me make the GB athletics team that competed at the European outdoor athletics championships, a major international competition I haven’t competed in since the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Additionally, I finished 3rd at the UK British national trials in the 200m, and ran personal bests in the 200m & 400m.
