Athletic Lab

I have been a member of Athletic Lab since May/June 2021. I am a competitive Irish Dancer and I needed to find a private coaching program that would tailor the training to my specific needs. The Athletic Lab delivered! I have primarily worked with Beatriz Fernandez who took the time to look at my sport, having only Riverdance / Lord of the Dance as prior knowledge. She took the time to listen to me as I explained my weaknesses and my strengths, things I needed to improve, things I wish were better and other strength goals as well. Not only did she listen to me explain my sport, Beatriz also watched several videos from both class and competition, came to some of my shows, and also traveled to Greensboro for a competition to see it live! She went above and beyond to fully understand the complexities and niché requests that is an artistic sport. Since that time, Beatriz has tailored, and continues to tailor my cross training to help me succeed in my competitions. I went from never knowing if I would have the right amount of stamina for the day, to having the confidence of knowing that I was going to make it through my dance. I have improved so much in my stamina, my strength, my jumping ability, my posture, my reaction times, and I’m sure many other areas. This past fall, it all came together and I placed 7th for my age group in the entire Southern Region USA + Mexico. I’ve truly enjoyed my time with Athletic Lab. I’ve worked with several of the trainers and they are all fantastic. They have fun. And work hard. I not only have a coach I love to work with, but I’ve gained a good friend too! I plan on staying with Athletic Lab far after my competitive career is over. However long that lasts!

Our son started with the Athletic Lab Weightlifting Team back in August with Coach Jarrod. He loves being a part of the weightlifting team and is always eager to get to training. Coach Jarrod has been phenomenal with our son and we couldn't be more happy with the progress our son has made since being a part of the Athletic Lab Weightlifting Team. By far the absolute best experience as an athlete that our son has ever had.

Whether you have been exercising or just started, Athletic Lab is a great place to be. The coaches are very knowledgeable and accommodating. The programs are amazing and offer variety of classes that combine cardio, weight training, and some gymnastic movements. They also offer the classes that help build your endurance, teach you with weightlifting skills, help you with flexibility and mobility and more. The facility is spacious, clean and equipped with the shower rooms. The community is fun, friendly and supportive. Most importantly, they have taken Covid precautions very seriously. In order to get inside the building, you first need to book your class online and once you arrive, you need to keep your mask on at all time. You are encouraged to wash your hands before and after the class. There’s also a station for hand sanitizer. There is a limitation of how many people can attend each class and everyone has their own spot with their own equipment to use away from each other. Once they are done with the equipment, they have to clean them with the provided towel and solution. I had a problem with my lungs before but have felt very safe training here during the pandemic because everyone follows the precautions. Therefore, I highly recommend this place. *Edited to add more pictures to help visualize the inside during the pandemic for those that are interested.

I’ve been attending CrossFit classes at Athletic Lab for about 3 and a half years. It is such a wonderful community and all the coaches are great. I mostly attend Coach Beatriz and Coach Kyrie’s classes and they’re just so much fun to be around. The best thing about AL is that it’s for everyone! The coaches are knowledgeable and will modify anything for you. It’s also super welcoming with the director, Cate, at the entrance ready to greet you.

My daughter attended Athletic Lab for some strength and conditioning for her upcoming volleyball season, and the team did a phenomenal job of putting together a plan that meets her needs. Highly recommend to anyone beginning or looking to take their fitness to the next level.
