— The CBA Method

01

Strength is the base

Everything sits on top of real strength. We program the barbell - squat, bench, deadlift, press - with honest periodization, so you build force that carries into speed, size, and durability. No random workouts, just a plan that gets you stronger.

02

Performance that transfers

Strength has to show up when it counts. We train speed, change of direction, and a braced, powerful midline - so what you build in the gym transfers to the field, the court, and the platform. Force you can actually use.

03

Train it, then protect it

Durable athletes last. We build shoulder health, joint-friendly prehab, and smart return-to-training work into the standard - responsible support for healthy training, never a replacement for your doctor or physical therapist.

04

Build every muscle, one standard

From compound strength to targeted isolation - arms, back, core, and full-body hypertrophy for size and definition. Youth or adult, male or female, everybody trains to the same standard we have held since 2012. No shortcuts, no hype.

CBA Pure Strength - Barbell Program
program

CBA Pure Strength - Barbell Program

A 12-week compound barbell strength program built on the squat, bench, deadlift, and overhead press. Real periodization - a volume base that builds into heavier, lower-rep intensity, with a planned deload so you get stronger without grinding yourself into the ground. Built for male and female lifters who want honest, coach-programmed strength, not a random workout of the day.

CBA Speed School - 8 Week Acceleration
program

CBA Speed School - 8 Week Acceleration

The flagship. An 8-week, coach-built acceleration and top-speed program for high-school and club athletes (ages 13+). Wall drills, sprint-technique work, resisted sprints, and a genuine sprint-and-plyometric progression that gets you from first-step to full stride. This is the block that turns a fast kid into a mechanically sound sprinter.

First Step - Youth Agility Foundations
program

First Step - Youth Agility Foundations

The starter block for young athletes ages 8 to 12. A 6-week, downloadable foundation in athletic posture, deceleration, and clean change-of-direction - taught the CBA way. Bodyweight and one agility ladder, no barbell, no contact. Builds the coordination and control that every fast athlete is built on before speed is ever chased.

$39
Change of Direction - The Cutting Lab
program

Change of Direction - The Cutting Lab

A 6-week movement-skills program for field and court athletes (ages 13+) who need to stop, plant, and re-accelerate without losing a step - or a knee. Built around deceleration mechanics, single-leg strength, and reactive cutting. Heavy emphasis on landing quality and knee-safe plant technique. The agility half of the CBA equation.

$49
Return Man - Explosive First-Step & Return Speed
program

Return Man - Explosive First-Step & Return Speed

A 6-week open-field speed program for skill athletes - the athletes who live in space. Built from the return-and-skill background CBA was founded on: violent first three steps, top-end sprint mechanics, and open-field body control. For running backs, receivers, defensive backs, and returners (ages 14+) chasing that extra half-step.

$59
Combine Ready - Testing & Showcase Prep
plan

Combine Ready - Testing & Showcase Prep

A focused 4-week peaking plan for athletes with a combine, showcase, or camp on the calendar (ages 14+). Drills the actual tested movements - the 40 stance and start, the pro-agility (5-10-5), the L-drill, broad jump, and vertical - with real technique coaching so your number reflects your ability, not your nerves. A peaking block, not a magic trick: honest speed development with the test in mind.

$29
Steel Core - Abs & Midline
program

Steel Core - Abs & Midline

Serious core and midline strength - the bracing, anti-rotation, and trunk work that protects your spine and transfers force, not endless gimmick crunches. An 8-week block you bolt onto any training week, three short sessions at a time. For male and female athletes and lifters who want a midline that holds up under a heavy bar and a hard cut.

$39
Bulletproof Shoulders - Rehab & Prehab
program

Bulletproof Shoulders - Rehab & Prehab

A responsible shoulder-health block for prehab, general shoulder resilience, and easing back into training after time off. Rotator-cuff, scapular-control, and mobility work programmed to build durable, pain-free shoulders. This is training support for healthy shoulders and general shoulder care - it is not medical treatment. If you have an actual injury or pain, see a doctor or physical therapist first (full disclaimer inside).

$34
Arms & Back Builder
program

Arms & Back Builder

A 10-week arms and back block - biceps, triceps, and full back development from strength through isolation. Rows and pulls build the back you pull heavy with; targeted arm work adds the size and definition. Programmed with real set-and-rep progression for male and female lifters who want a stronger, fuller upper body, not just a pump.

$44
CBA Isolation Blueprint - Hypertrophy
program

CBA Isolation Blueprint - Hypertrophy

The full-body size and definition block. A 12-week hypertrophy program built on a proven bodybuilding split, driving every major muscle group with isolation work, controlled tempo, and progressive overload. Built for male and female lifters chasing muscle, symmetry, and a leaner, more defined look - programmed the CBA way, with structure and honest progression.

Questions

What ages do you train?

Our programs run from youth (First Step is built for ages 8-13) through high-school, college, and adult athletes. Each program lists who it is for so you pick the right level.

Is this in-person in Las Vegas or can I do it anywhere?

Both. The downloadable programs (Speed School, Change of Direction, Combine Prep, First Step) can be done anywhere with basic space and cones. Private training and camps are in-person in Las Vegas - we confirm scheduling after you register.

What equipment do I need?

The downloadable programs are built to run with minimal gear - cones, space to sprint, and optional bands or a sled. Every session lists exactly what it needs, with substitutions if you do not have it.

How do I get my program after I register?

Digital programs deliver instantly - a secure download link on the confirmation page and by email. Private training and camp registrations start with a follow-up email to confirm dates and details.

Do you guarantee results or recruiting outcomes?

No honest coach can guarantee a scholarship or a specific time. What we guarantee is real, coach-built training in the CBA standard. Do the work and you get faster, sharper, and more explosive - the rest you earn.

Is this only for competitive athletes?

No. CBA started with sport, but the programs now cover strength, size and definition, core, and shoulder health for anyone who wants to train seriously. A bigger squat, a leaner and more muscular look, a stronger midline, or just healthier shoulders - there is a coach-built block here for you.

Can women do these programs?

Yes - every program is built for male and female lifters. Strength, core, arms and back, hypertrophy, and shoulder health train the same way for everyone. Loads differ from person to person, but the progression and the standard are identical, and this volume will not make anyone bulky by accident.

Is the shoulder program medical treatment or physical therapy?

No. Bulletproof Shoulders is prehab and general shoulder-health training - not medical treatment and not a substitute for a doctor, physical therapist, or athletic trainer. If you have a shoulder injury, pain, or instability, stop and see a qualified professional first. Use it for healthy shoulders or alongside professional care, never in place of it.

I have never touched a barbell - where do I start?

Start light and learn the technique. Every strength and hypertrophy program tells beginners to prioritize clean form over load. Begin at the lighter end of every range, use safety pins or a spotter on heavy lifts, and consider a session or two of in-person coaching in Las Vegas to groove the lifts before you load them.
