Aqua Strength Performance.

Performance training for athletes and individuals looking to level up their strength, resiliency, and overall health.

Meet Jack.

Coach Jack is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) based in the East Bay (Northern California). A majority of his clientele consists of middle school, high school, and collegiate athletes. In addition to athlete programs, he also trains adults looking to build strength, lose fat, feel great, and level up their lives.
Growing up, Jack was a water polo player and swimmer. Towards the end of high school and during his collegiate water polo career, he fell in love with strength training. He found it fascinating that there was a way to improve his health, strength, movement, and resiliency outside of the pool that could help his game TREMENDOUSLY.
While many think they know how to "work out," it is quite evident most don't know how to TRAIN. Filling this gap and helping athletes, adults, and anyone with the desire to live a stronger, healthier, pain free life is his passion. His primary goal is to help YOU.

Our Principles.

Movement First.

All training is based on a movement first approach. Learning to move properly, through a full range of motion with stability and control, creates a foundation in which we can build upon for years to come.

Training with a PLAN.

Great results require a structured program. Any workout can make you tired and sore, but a well planned and properly executed program will lead to results. Plans are individualized to meet you where you’re at and help you reach your goals.

Results Driven.

If you aren’t making progress, what’s the point of training? We believe in delivering results that people can track, feel, see, and fully comprehend. No gimmicks, no “hacks,” just consistent principled based training focused on slow and steady progress.

What People Are Saying…

“I can confidently say the ASP program took my athletic career to the next level. Not only did I gain strength and endurance, which improved my water polo game, but I also gained knowledge in the weight room. In just a year and a half, Jack prepared me for division 1 collegiate water polo by teaching me how to properly lift weights, take care of my body to prevent injury, and instilled confidence in me and my abilities as an athlete.”

— Mackenzie M. (In-person client)

“Jack’s remote program has been a major staple in my health and fitness plan over the last two years. The knowledge he implements in his workouts has helped me optimize strength and muscle building as well as recovery; I have struggled with shoulder tendinitis in the past, but it hasn’t been an issue since working with Jack. He is also highly adaptive and willing to listen and implement any feedback I might have. I would strongly recommend his program, remote or in-person, to anyone looking to take their health and fitness to the next level.”

—Nico C. (Online client)

“Jack’s holistic approach to strength training and nutrition has not only drastically improved my athletic performance, but it has also helped me develop good recovery habits. His easy going friendly nature and guidance has encouraged me to become the best version of myself as an athlete and a gym bro. Strength training under Jack’s supervision has skyrocketed my expectations in and out of the pool, and I am excited for the years to come.”

— Ben F. (In-person client)

“JB brought me back from shoulder surgery with non-stop motivation, dedication, and patience. He instilled in me habits with strength and mobility training that I will carry with me forever. It’s been an honor and a privilege to be a part of this man’s journey.”

— Tommy B. (In-person client)

“Working with Jack has been the best addition to my personal fitness goals and lifestyle since I stopped playing sports competitively. He has worked with me to tailor my routines to my goals, life, and available equipment. He is always available for questions and takes the time to explain in detail at any length. Maybe most importantly, he’s genuinely invested in both my enjoyment and success since we started working together, and always asks for feedback to make things better. Can’t thank him or recommend working with him enough!”

— Andrew H. (Online client)

“I've worked with Jack for two years and I highly recommend him as a trainer to all athletes. His workouts are innovative, varied, and challenging. Jack has extensive knowledge of what it means to be a student athlete. He goes above and beyond to not only train, but support athletes to be their best in the weight room, at practice, and in life. Going into college as a D1 athlete I was nervous for many reasons, except weight training. I am doing exercises safely and comfortably with form I have mastered with Jack and I'm pushing weight at the same level as seniors on my team.”
