I know I can play division 1 lacrosse. 

He sat in our office after a successful junior year, but with zero division 1 offers. 

He was a good player. He started playing varsity lacrosse his freshman year. Won a starting job his sophomore year. And had become a team captain and won the “unsung hero” award for his team in his junior year. 

He was the player that coaches loved to have on their team. He was a consistent producer, always repliable, high skill with a higher compete level. 

And yet despite all of this, he was now going into his senior year with no commitment, no d1 offers, and not sure what to do next. 

It wasn’t that he was at a bad school in or in a lower tier conference. He had teammates commit division 1 each season, some to top end lacrosse schools. In fact, he had conversations with coaches and scouts, but at the end of the day nothing serious.

“I don’t wanna sound cocky… but I’ve played with guys who had D1 commits that I know I’m better than. I just don’t get why I’m going under the radar here, my coach has even said I’m an impact player every time on the field.”

So we connected with a college coach who had seen him play and asked what the deal was. 

“Ya – he’s a solid player. His coaches say his work ethic is insane. He’s super consistent. Good head for the game. Constantly makes an impact with or without the ball. Truthfully.. we just didn’t see the flash that would let his game translate to D1. The players that we’re confident are impact D1 players are so quick, and can blend strength and power in their game, he’s just missing a little pop.”

We shared this feedback with him, and while it obviously stung, it was actually good news – he was a division 1 caliber lacrosse player if he could develop more speed and explosiveness.

So we offered to create him a program that would do just that. 

A program that was built specifically for the demands of lacrosse, and far different than the classic workouts he had been doing on his own. But we knew if he committed to 12 weeks he’d develop the physical attributes he needed to elevate his game. 

He was in. 

So we crafted the perfect workout program to develop lacrosse players:

• We shifted away from just heavy lifts & instead focused on developing strength that would actually translate to the mechanics of lacrosse with full body integrated workouts. 
• We added speed & athleticism to every workout. With plyo and power work that would develop more explosiveness to each cut, dodge, and change of direction and speed work that would refine footwork and movement mechanics. 
• We developed functional mobility that would let players not only develop a healthy & mobile body, but also optimize their movement patterns to run faster and shoot harder. 
• We created elite conditioning levels that would let players play at top speed without slowing down for longer. 

He committed the process and the results paid off. 

Each week he said he felt more agile. His dodges and change of direction had become explosive and elusive.  His shot started to feel smoother and more powerful. He started playing more aggressively and confident. 

Finally the season came around, and his work really showed. 

He wasn’t just impactful, he was dominant. His coaches kept commenting about how it was his breakout season, and each game was met by a conversation with a D1 coach. 

4 weeks into the season, he had been named player of the week twice and better yet – he had emails from over a dozen D1 coaches.

“They’ve all said they’re going to continue to watch me this season and a handful already want me to come do tours.  They’ve said they had my name on their list but are super impressed with how I’ve developed this off-season.”

He continued to show up on the score sheet and catch the attention of scouts. 

By the final week of the season he had been named the all-conference player of the year and had firm offers from over 11 division 1 schools, including one from his dream school. 

By committing to transforming his training, he had transformed his game, and ultimately his entire trajectory in lacrosse.  

He had earned a full ride to play division 1 lacrosse.

The next off-season half of his former teammates and another 6 or 7 female players from his school had reached out for a similar program.

Same process, similar results. 

Regardless of their position or whether they were playing men's or women’s lacrosse – they all saw strength & conditioning have a huge impact on their game for the first time. 

Quickly we started getting emails from both high school and college players from across North America asking for programs.

College players at all levels were tired of just receiving a recycled workout program from the soccer or football team – and knew that they needed to be training for the specific demands of lacrosse if they wanted to maximize their performance and potential.

As the demand for programs continued from lacrosse players at all levels of the game, we decided to create a complete off-season program that would give lacrosse players the exact game plan to get faster, more explosive, and more dominant on the field.  

The Relentless Off-Season Program was born. 

Since then, hundreds of players from high school to division 1 to the NLL and PLL have started training Relentless and taken their fitness and their game to the next level. 

Success belongs to the players who commit to becoming relentless – and it all starts off the field.
