I have found that Mike Young specifically has the knowledge and experience with professionals of all backgrounds to help me to improve and develop these key areas of my game and training. Since I have started working out at Athletic Lab I have noticed the difference in the way my body continues to improve through the speed and strength training. I highly recommend this facility and the staff to high level athletes and even people who are just interested in keeping their bodies fit and in shape. As long as I am walking and staying fit and active and in the Raleigh area Athletic Lab is my gym!

I feel that Athletic Lab is the ideal facility to train and hone my strength and speed during the season and the off season because of all the tools available to you there. You have a very knowledgeable staff prepared to offer advice and expertise that will help guide me when I am training specifically for soccer, large open spaces to work on speed and agility drills, and fixed and free weight areas that make it easy to do multi-movement workouts which are key in my training. In addition they have all the latest kettlebell, medicine balls, and elastic bands that are very important in specialized training.

After working with Mike at the Athletic Lab, I saw immediate results in my strength and speed…I felt stronger as the season went on and really owe all the credit to him and the Lab.

Hey Mike I ended up getting 316 lbs on the squat and ran out of weight. And then i did 170 in bench! Those are 15-20 percent gains!! I brag to my friends about you all the time Mike! Thanks so much man!

In the beginning of last season when I came here I had to do some extra training to increase my physical fitness. I was good on the ball and I knew the game and I knew how to make the runs. I did training from Mike Young of Athletic Lab who is really really doing a great job. It’s helping me out. I lost some weight and I put a bit more muscle on. It’s helping me so much I feel much more powerful. I can play the whole game now. And it’s all thanks to them.

Thank you so much for all your help with the weight training and pole vaulting! You have definitely helped so much in getting me where I am now! Thanks again!

By working out at Athletic Lab, I have achieved a higher level of fitness and athletic confidence than I ever thought possible after having a baby.
Kelly Furr, Post-Collegiate Track Athlete
We highly recommend Athletic Lab to parents of other athletes (and we wish we would have known about the Lab sooner). Jared definitely attributes an increase in his speed on the field, to the training he received with you this summer.
