Favorite Part of Training at PSP3: Getting to workout side-by-side and make friends with athletes that play different sports. Oh and the gainz.
Advice to Other Athletes: “Staying positive is huge. When things get tough, remember to stay positive and keep in mind that you’re playing your favorite sport and it should be fun.”
“What a transformation that Luc has made in his time with us. Luc was one of our first athletes, our first ice hockey athlete. He came in the door with little weight room experience though had big dreams of hockey beyond the high school ranks. Luc dug in and worked his tail off for those 4+ years and I could not be more proud of where he is today. Him and his parents trusted in us to get him prepared physically for the rigors of ice hockey and stuck with our process of long term athletic development. It is due to that that Luc has stayed healthy throughout his high school career as well as his continually growth/development. I know that he will be a force on the ice and in the weight room for the Cyclones this fall/winter and I look forward to watching him via the Internet! Best of luck Luc, we might have to have a staff winter trip up to NH!”

Favorite Part of Training at PSP3: The atmosphere created by the coaches and athletes, as well as the workouts themselves
Advice to Other Athletes: “Don’t be afraid to give it all you got and just go for it.”
“As quirky as they come, Alexis is always good for a great laugh! She is constantly smiling and enjoying the simple things in life. But don’t let her joyfulness fool you as she is a very fierce competitor. She knows what it takes to be a great runner and has worked very hard to become one. As a member of the BVNW XC/T&F teams she has been there leading by example day-in and day-out. Alexis constantly pushes herself to try new things as she did this year in trying the 300m hurdles. Going in to the challenge with a positive mindset and can-do attitude she honed her craft and got herself all the way to the State meet. It is this intrinsic drive to continually push herself that will help her succeed in life. We are excited to see what the next chapter holds as heads to the University of Central Missouri, and we wish her the best of luck!”

Sports Played: Ice Hockey
Favorite All Time Athlete(s): P.K. Subban

Most Memorable Sports Experience: Winning a State/League Championship my junior year with the Kansas City Jets. We had such a great team and I was fortunate enough to score the only two goals in the championship game while playing with some of my best friends from over the years
How Long Have You Been Training at PSP3: 4.5 years
Favorite Movement/Lift: Deadlift
Favorite Part of Training at PSP3: I love the competition that is in the air every day. Everyone is pushing everybody else in the gym to work their hardest and to be their best
Advice to Other Athletes: “Be proactive and don’t get complacent. It took getting cut to make a significant change in my life that I wish I would’ve made years before.”
“As one of our hockey guys Noah has a mentally tough attitude that allows him to grind through the pain during grueling workouts which has helped him reach his goal of playing hockey at the next level. He wasn’t always this way though. Noah made a major change in his attitude and effort after his first year with us and it has paid off immensely. When he first started with us there was reluctance, uncertainty and poor eating habits that slowed his development down. Since he decided to burn the boat and be all in he has made an amazing transformation into a legitimate force on the ice. We could not be prouder of who Noah has become not only as an athlete but as a young man. We are excited to see what he does in the future!”

He’s the guy always staying after workouts to get extra work in, especially when it comes to ‘mirror flex time’. Though he is not planning on playing at the Juniors level next year he is still dedicated to getting strong and faster for the club level at the University of Arkansas. I know that Marsh will have a blast playing at the club level while getting to continue his education. We wish Marsh the best and look forward to watching him continue to push to crush all his PR’s this summer!”
