The training
I wish I'd had.

Athlete 2.0 was founded by Head Coach April Russell. As a former Division 1 collegiate soccer player, she strives to provide the type of training she wishes she'd had as a youth player.

The mission is simple — give athletes the experience and the training to envision and reach their goals of playing at an elite level.

The method

Two things,
done properly.

01 // SPEED

Built on data,
not guesswork

We focus heavily on speed development through acceleration, max velocity, change of direction and deceleration strategies. Every block is built against a measured number.

02 // STRENGTH

Built for the field,
not the mirror

This isn't powerlifting, bodybuilding or high-intensity training. We develop the athletic qualities that transfer to the field or court — and build an athlete resilient enough to hold up through a season.

On the record

D1

Played Division 1 collegiate soccer.

“I can't promise an athlete a scholarship. I can promise they'll learn how to work for one.”
