I started working out at Shaffer Strength & Conditioning at the
beginning of this summer.  Just in these past few months I saw a big
change in my physical and mental strength.  I can honestly say I am in the
best shape of my life right now.  And I wouldn’t have been able to
accomplish this without the help of Chris Shaffer and his Athlete Training
Program.  He pushes you to your limits while encouraging you along the
way.  I feel very prepared and confident in myself going into my next
volleyball season at Catawba College.  If I could change one thing it
would be to start working out with Chris earlier.

I had the best experience with the Athlete Training Program (ATP) at Shaffer Strength & Conditioning. I learned so much about my body, and what it is capable of doing. I never realized how hard I could push myself until my first “Day 2”. I loved how much individual attention I received, and how every workout was clearly explained with the correct technique.  All the instructors cared about the safety and improvement of the athletes, and also provided flexible hours for the hectic schedules of athletes. I felt so motivated every single day thanks to the constant encouragement that everyone gave me. This helped me push my body past my comfort zone. I feel as if I am in the best shape I have ever been, and I feel fully prepared to begin my pre-season as a D1 athlete. I cannot wait until I am home on break to resume my training with Shaffer Strength & Conditioning!
