    Accelerate Sports Performance is a one of a kind gym. I’ve been a member for well over a decade and nothing quite compares. As I’ve encountered a few different injuries along the way in my fitness journey, ASP has always been able to meet my needs. Jared, Jack, and Hannah are dedicated, passionate, and make the perfect individualized program for you so you can reach your own best personal potential. With their hands on guidance and support, you learn so much about the proper mechanics, science, form, and brain connections that go along with each movement. I know far more about my body, my athletic strengths and weaknesses, and my overall physical health and well being thanks to ASP. Whether I am at ASP in San Francisco or overseas, I’m able to follow a program that is best for me and I am always happy with the outcome.

    My experience at ASP has been an absolutely fantastic. I have not felt this good since before ACL surgery, and to be honest, I think this is the strongest my legs have ever been. More than that, Jack, Hannah, and Jared collectively created such a warm and motivating environment. The gym felt like home. Beyond that, here is what stands out: 1) Jack, Hannah, and Jared are true professionals. They know their stuff cold and are masterful at explaining concepts. They are patient but will also push you to hit your athletic goals. 2) The gym has a great culture. You see many friendly faces, there is always great banter, and the vibes are excellent. 3) The facility is large and has ample equipment. You are rarely waiting to use anything and can get a great workout in at your required pace. Whether you are looking to rehab an injury or simply improve performance, I could not recommend ASP more strongly.

    For decades I struggled with severe chronic lower back issues having worked with a number of professionals with no solutions. I thought it was just part of my life. I was 58 y/o when I started with Jack and the team at ASP and now at 72 have had ZERO back issues since starting with them! They were able to diagnose, treat, and I have been pain free for over a dozen years. I'm stronger, more mobile, and more knowledgeable than ever, thanks to them. At one point I had slipped down a flight of stairs when I was out of town, they diagnosed the ankle injury before I saw the surgeon, and post surgery they were able rehabilitate me to where I am presently running 3-4 days a week and in the gym the other days and have no issues/restrictions! My health is of the utmost importance to me and I pay close attention to my biomarkers. My doctors have said that I am reverse aging - biomarkers to prove it - again thanks to the holistic approach of ASP! Beyond that, the system they have is like no other. Their hybrid approach to strength and conditioning and sports medicine is unparalleled. We are treated like professional athletes with elite level care encompassing nutrition, fitness, and injury prevention care. We, as members, have digital keys/access to care at any time of the day with no time limit. Coming from decades of strict 55-minute, pay per session, personal training I cannot express how important this is to have quality and effective access to top level professionals. As individuals, the team at ASP are extremely responsive, knowledgeable and professional. I am writing this review to help others like me out there....as someone who just had no idea this level of care and expertise existed! I am very thankful to be a part of ASP, and hope that others out there can gain as much as I have. If you are curious, wondering, or looking for something better...this is the place for you!

    I say this all the time and I really mean it, I don’t know where I would be without ASP. I’ve been a member for approximately 6 years now and I’m so grateful to have found this gym. Jack, Jared and Hannah are true gems. When I joined, I was coming out of my second ACL surgery. I was looking for a gym that would help my recovery and get me back on the soccer field. ASP did that and so much more! My training program is tailored to my body and needs. Each program is designed to help me progress, get stronger and go beyond my fitness goals. What I appreciate about ASP is the time dedicated to educating you on breathing techniques, proper form and the benefits of the movements/exercises performed. ASP is the supportive team you need to reach your individual goals. Not only is the staff premier, the gym itself is of the highest quality. Machines and equipment are easily accessible. There is no time limit to your session and trainers are readily available for assistance. Overall, this not just any gym, this is THE gym! Do yourself a favor and check out ASP!

    Accelerate has an amazing team of sports-medicine professionals. I’ve been a member for 7 months now, and only have positive feedback. The space is clean, members respectful and lots of equipment. The main reason I joined was to improve my balance and strengthen the muscles around my knee, so I could keep running, skiing and anything else that catches my fancy. I have learned so much from the team and now have the confidence in my athletic form to try new exercises and heavier weights. My progress has been incredible and I see more definition in my muscular structure. Each month I can’t wait for the new program, which increases in intensity to meet my fitness progression. No hesitation in recommending Accelerate for your fitness training.

    The trainers and program at ASP are the best. I came to them after years of back pain. Leading up to joining, I was throwing out my back every 6-8 weeks. Jack, Jared, and Hannah built a tailored program to build strength and address my back issues that changes every month. They’ve also woken me up to a host of other things that impact my health like sleep, stress, eating and movement patterns. I haven’t thrown out my back in six months and feel strong and resilient. Five starts!

    I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER WALK, HIKE, RUN, OR DANCE AGAIN! ASP is otherworldly from the typical healthcare/PT system & other gyms. The hybridized model of fitness and performance backed by sports science & medicine is the perfect blend for ANYONE. I cannot thank ASP enough! TRAIN AT ASP if you want to enhance injury prevention, fitness, performance in sport & life and/or recovering from an injury or surgery. They are strength & performance coaches with a foundation rooted in sports medicine, athletic training, and use science to drive their exercise prescription programming. They are fully engaged in your success and track, iterate, & adjust programming as much as needed. There is no limit on how long I train. They are focused on outcomes and quality. When I travel I even have a digital program on their in-house training software that they track! They educate and enlighten along the way, allowing me to understand what I am doing & why, which has had a profound impact on my progress. At times I have 3 sets of eyes on me and 3 minds working collectively to enhance my life, and on MY schedule. I had no idea this type of gym, service, and environment existed! ASP is a fountain of health, longevity, and functional sport performance where everyone around me is thriving! I train alongside general populations looking for longevity/mobility/strength/weight loss, pre/post surgical individuals like myself, professional athletes, young athletes from around 12 years up through college, office athletes and weekend warriors, and combinations of all of the above thriving collectively! The atmosphere, education, and everyday progress I see is amazing! MY STORY I never realized how many people lived the same nightmare as me. After falling down some stairs and sustaining multiple soft tissue ruptures, tears, ligament and tendon avulsions, and a fracture in my lower leg/ankle I needed serious corrective surgery. I had been engaged with what were revered as the top medical professionals (surgeon, podiatrist and 3 physical therapists). My recovery was slow at best, I sustained other injuries in rehab & struggled to find pain relief. I had spent the first 3 months post-accident completely bedridden. Depression & atrophy grew. I thought constant pain, lack of range of motion, and a walking cane were my new normal after 1 year. I realized the hard way that the typical healthcare ecosystem is broken & even destructive. FINALLY I FOUND ASP! In just 1 MONTH I gained enough strength, mobility, and pain reduction to cease use of my cane and could walk with proper gait! I am now 100% pain free! Of all the gyms and trainers that I had explored, ASP is the only one that requested and reviewed my medical records and understood my needs. They then took me through a detailed assessment of my current health: pain, ROM, tissue quality, mobility, gait, biomechanics, proprioception, body composition, strength, stability, and more. Far more in depth, constructive & immediately more helpful and enlightening than a full year of rehab in the typical insurance PT fashion. Then they developed a custom strength and rehab program for me. In just 7 months, my body is stronger and leaner than before my accident! I wish I had found them earlier! I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU There are so many people in my position that went through the pains and stagnation of our healthcare system, or your general gym/personal trainer. The astonishing journeys of fellow ASP members: debilitating back injuries, ACL tears, achilles ruptures, nerve and posture issues, and every day aches, pains sustained via sport or life. They were all like me thinking that that pain & suffering was normal, and now thanks to ASP we are all thriving healthier than preinjury. If any of the above resonates, train at ASP: INVEST IN YOURSELF! YOU WON’T REGRET IT! Thank you Hannah, Jack, and Jared for giving me my life & independence back! There is no doubt in my mind that I would still be in pain and struggling to walk without you.

    ASP is a marvelous facility. I went in there with a couple of very specific injuries including to my ankles and back. Every day I went in I was extremely impressed with the team Jack has assembled. Their knowledge of the human body, the precision within their approach and just their general attitudes. They take their work seriously, but don't take themselves too seriously. Within a few weeks of training with them I noticed changes in my body and form I never thought possible. I was walking better. Running better. Lifting better. I truly believe my body benefitted from my time working there.

    If you want absolutely full-proof pre-hab and re-hab for the weak spot in your armor, ASP is the place to go. After tearing my ACL and meniscus in my early 40s I simply followed all the advice of my health care HMO provider. Though I was very disciplined about following the surgeon, orthopedist, and physical therapist guidelines, 10 months after surgery I had plateaued well short of a full recovery--and they could really only offer more of the same. So I went in for an evaluation with Jack and immediately experienced a different attention to details and a completely systemic approach to treating my injury. Our bodies are a system of systems, so it makes sense! There were of course months of hard work, but at every step along the way I knew Hannah, Jack, and Jared had my back in whatever way I needed it. Fast forward, I've been back surfing for several months and a few weeks back I surfed the biggest waves in 32+ months at my beloved Ocean Beach. It went quite well. I was hydrated, fueled, and properly (ASP-style!) warmed up. It was heavy, triple black diamond beach but there was a different confidence in my body and my mind I felt approaching those conditions than I ever had previously. Getting into the water I was relaxed but focused. The paddle out was comparatively easy. And out the back I can only say, felt cozy. I completed two steep-n-deep rides in under an hour, and sprinted back to other life commitments. In short, an accelerated performance. I can not express my stoke enough. Most important to getting to this point was all the strengthening, rehabbing, and empowering work I did with this incredible team in the gym. You're doing beautiful work in the world. So thanks. Andrew

    I'm immensely grateful to the entire team at ASP for their expertise, patience, and unwavering support throughout my journey. From the very beginning, their approach stood out for its focus on personalization and targeting my specific needs. The team's dedication to ensuring I received the best care possible was truly remarkable. I was very impressed by the comprehensive assessment which helped identify multiple weaknesses that likely contributed to my injury. I also really appreciated their commitment to correcting my form during exercises. They paid meticulous attention to detail, guiding me with precision to ensure I was performing each exercise correctly. This attention to form and assistance not only accelerated my recovery but also equipped me with the confidence to continue these exercises on my own without the fear of exacerbating my injury. My time with ASP has been invaluable. Thanks to their guidance, I not only healed faster but also gained an understanding of the importance of proper technique and tailored exercises. I now feel equipped with the tools and experience to continue the exercises and stretches that will play a vital role in preventing future injuries. If you're seeking a personalized, results-driven approach to physical therapy, look no further than ASP. They are a game-changer!

    I came to Accelerate Sports Performance (ASP) after a friend recommended it to me. I was recovering from a spine injury, and while physical therapy helped in the beginning, I wasn’t given many new, more challenging exercises after months of being there. I felt like I wasn’t progressing as fast as I wanted, and with the numerous activities I wanted to do such as robotics, soccer, and skiing, I needed my back to be stronger so I could enjoy my hobbies. With the personalized exercises and attentive staff, it took less than a month for me to feel a lot stronger and more comfortable in my body. ASP helped me feel more supported on a day-to-day basis and I learned quite a few tips and exercises on how to protect my back for the rest of my life. I'm so glad I found ASP and I would suggest everyone to check them out!

    I’m a collegiate athlete and play D1 basketball at Cal as of late. I’ve been going to ASP in my off season for a few years now. I need to stay in shape between seasons and nothing has ever worked better for me that ASP has. I once tried another gym closer to my house and nothing compares to ASP I even make a 30-45 minute drive at 5:15 am to beat traffic and get there cause I know that going to ASP is the only way I’m going to get the results I want and need in order for me to be in shape and succeed as a player. I love all of the staff. Hannah, Jared, and Jack have all helped me immensely! Everyone is friendly and welcoming and it was super great getting to know the other gym members who showed up at the time I did, it truly is like a little family. Each program is specified to the kind of help you need and my exercises helped me get a workout in and do rehab for past injuries that usually develop while I’m in season. Thank you to everyone at ASP I’m super appreciative! :)

    Fantastic gym!!! I did OrangeTheory HIIT for many years and struggled with injuries and burnout. I’ve been training at ASP for about 3 months and I’ve been amazed by how much progress I’ve made! The custom workouts have helped me set personalized goals that are helping with previous injuries while working to prevent more in the future. The coaches are incredibly enthusiastic and compassionate. They are quick to make adjustments and modify your plan to ensure you have the best workout for your body. The gym is always clean and well maintained. I’ve struggled to build muscle and flexibility in the past and in the time I’ve trained with ASP I’ve set many personal records. Give ASP a try!
