I used the ignition training program in 2011 in Naples, Florida as I was leaving University of Tulsa and preparing for the NFL combine. I felt very prepared and I appreciated the staff for traveling with me to Indianapolis to support me through the combine process.
The program at Ignition is awesome! I broke my all time personal best on the bench press and dead lift, while improving my speed and quickness. Ignition made me a better all around NFL player and I can feel it. I was able to not only train physically, but also spiritually through prayer before workouts and this helped me keep all things in perspective.
Training at Ignition was one of the best pre-draft decisions I made in the process. No other facility in the country trains the mind, body, and spirit the way that they do.
Training at Ignition was the best and most important decision I have made for my football career. The daily individual attention in every drill we did made all the difference. The spiritual aspect of the program was my favorite part as it helped me become a better person and athlete.
I’ve spent my NFL off seasons training at Ignition. I like the holistic approach that allows me to train speed, power and stamina all in the same training session. The workouts are always specific to my position. They have a great atmosphere with an awesome coaching staff.
I chose Ignition before choosing an NFL agent. That was the best decision I could have made as I felt comfortable with everyone and everything the program at Ignition offered with small groups and lots of one on one attention. This was very big for me as I wasn’t just a number in the program but felt like family and knew everyone there had my best in mind! In return, I broke my all time personal records and was a top performer in nearly every category at the NFL Combine.
Ignition APG helped me reach my goal of playing in the NFL, and they prepared me for the biggest job interview of my life (NFL Combine). The trainers you will work with are experienced and have proven that they are among the best at what they do. Through hard work, dedication and their programs you will see improvement like never before, and you will put yourself in a position to realize your dream.
Ignition has trained a number of my Rutgers teammates along with myself. The program here prepared me to play at my highest level during the 2014 season.
Ignition was the best place I could have trained to maximize my full potential. Anyone who is serious about performing at their best at the NFL Combine and Pro Day needs to train at Ignition. Before my Pro Day, I was unknown to most NFL Coaches, however after training I became a 2nd round pick in the 2009 NFL Draft.
My overall experience at Ignition was phenomenal. The workouts were individualized because it was such a small group. My numbers improved dramatically. I took three tenths off my forty and broke the all time record in the L Cone drill at the NFL Combine. The environment is a fun and enjoyable experience. I couldn’t have chosen a better program.

The deltoid muscle is small and consists of three sections – front (anterior), side (lateral), and rear (posterior). To avoid injury or imbalances you must train all three parts from various angles. This unilateral landmine circuit covers both of those issues.

Question: I want to build strength. Is running before my workouts a bad idea?
Answer: I suggest running after you train. While five to ten minutes of low intensity running is a decent warm-up, cardio sessions that last longer than five minutes pre-workout can lead to muscular fatigue and use up energy stored that could play a huge role in helping your push more weight and attain new PRs.

Almost all high school student-athletes are in the midst of a vitally important time in their lives as they are acquiring mind, body, and character skills that will last a lifetime. When working with them on strength and conditioning, it’s important to have a well-defined philosophy that they can understand and buy into.
You may not realize it but everything we do – from getting up off the ground to climbing stairs to playing any sport – puts us in a lunge position of sorts. To truly make your body more efficient, you need to reinforce that movement. The only way to do that is to show the lunge some love by, well lunging. A lot.
The plank has become an easy, post-workout prescription – usually performed by guys who are more concerned with setting the Guinness World Record for time, regardless of how sloppy their form gets. Which is sad, because who properly executed, the plank is the end-all for full-body stability and better posture. Also, it’ll help you chisel out a great set of abs. Here, we outline how to perform the perfect plank, then offer four variations to take it up a notch. Think you can handle it?
Six carry variations to load your frame with muscle.
To build rock-hard core, grip strength, and a big upper back, the loaded carry reigns supreme. You’ve probably done the basic farmer’s walk, but now it’s time for a new twist on the classic muscle-building move.
If you stepped inside the Xavier University strength and conditioning facility during the men’s basketball team’s workouts this past summer, you wouldn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. Players are working hard, and Matt Jennings, MS, MSCC, now in his ninth year as a Head Strength and Conditioning Coach, is encouraging them on.
As Clif Marshall made the three-hour drive from Cincinnati to Bloomington last spring, he thought he had made up his mind. As personal trainer to the Cincinnati Bengals, Xavier Musketeers and Dayton Flyers, and as a key member of a successful training business in Cincinnati, Marshall couldn’t envision leaving.

If you want to lift more explosively, then your training better reflect your goals. “A lot of strength programs in America are built around slow, controlled reps,” says Chris Gray, the Senior Performance Specialist at Ignition APG in Mason, OH. “But to be explosive, you must train explosively, and French Contrast is great for this.”
GREEN BAY – Winston Moss has seen this kind of progression before in his linebackers. From Desmond Bishop to Nick Perry, the Packers associate head coach has watched countless playmakers go from backups waiting for years in the wings to full-fledged contributors during his 11-plus seasons leading Green Bay’s linebackers.
Sean O’Mara’s meaty, 6-foot-10 frame was never intended to be used for tumbling on recreational mats in the style of a Jiu Jitsu fighter, and yet there he was – face red, a thin glaze of sweat forming on his brow, hunched on the ground and laboring to tuck his left arm back toward his right hip in order to perform a tumble.

There was no drama for Justin Hilliard on Wednesday morning. No hat displays, no social media consternation over which college football program the young man from Cincinnati St. Xavier High School would choose from the hundreds that had at one point or another expressed interest in him. All that was needed to do was hit the “send” button on the fax machine at 7:23 a.m.
After eight years of preparing players for what he calls this week’s “Underwear Olympics,” trainer Clif Marshall realizes the NFL draft process has delicate dance partners. There is the brute reality of the prospect’s college tape. Meanwhile, the NFL Scouting Combine that opens Wednesday in Indianapolis supplies sheer data that is seductive and dangerous eye candy for scouts.
The pinnacle of the world of professional football is this weekend. It will be played in Arizona, on the outskirts of Phoenix where desert begins meeting metropolis. It is where seemingly all attention is being focused this week on actual matters of the game between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks or the multiple trivialities surrounding the United States’ unofficial winter holiday.
