From elite athletes to weekend warriors, the SAM Elite Sports Performance program at Samaritan Athletic Medicine Center works collaboratively to assess your needs and meet your performance goals.
Our sports performance program extends beyond strength training to include assessment, rehabilitation, and comprehensive injury prevention and performance training that is supported by the most current evidence.
The SAM Elite Performance & Fitness Program provides personalized training and coaching to support individual goals for all ages and abilities.
Every program begins with a functional assessment to understand your current movement, strength and mobility. We use this information to create a customized training plan aligned with your goals.
Clients typically focus on one or more of the following areas:
Performance – Athlete‑focused training designed to elevate performance and support the next stage of development.
Function – Training that improves strength, mobility and movement to support daily activities.
Later Stage Rehabilitation – For individuals transitioning beyond care with a medical provider, with an emphasis on restoring function and performance to safely return to sport or valued activities (may be ideal for individuals with limited medical coverage).
Our semi-private, personal training program is conducted in a group setting with a low coach to client ratio (1 coach for up to 5 clients at a time). This allows SAM Elite to provide the same individualized programming and attentive coaching needed to best reach your goals that you would find with personal training but in an energetic, positive, inclusive and supportive community at a significantly decreased cost compared to private training.
SAM Elite provides private sessions with one or two clients for a more personalized approach to training. This level of service allows for more immediate individualization and training variety.
Some clients are looking for the programming expertise of SAM Elite but, for any reason, may be unable to train at our facility. SAM Elite can perform an in-person or virtual assessment to gather the information necessary to design a video-linked training program that can be performed anywhere.
Our camp brings young women together to build confidence, comfort and strength in a gym or weight‑room setting. Offered each summer by The SAM, participants learn to create individualized training programs with guidance from physical therapists and strength coaches.
Each week features expert‑led sessions on topics important to young women’s health and fitness, including strength, agility, recovery, sports psychology and nutrition.
Strength – Emphasis on proper form and adequate stress to safely increase strength.
Agility – Speed and change-of-direction training to enhance athletic performance.
Plyometrics – Lower and upper body plyometrics to increase speed and power.
Girl’s Strength Camp is geared toward high school aged girls who want to improve their sports performance, endurance, agility and fitness, while developing foundational skills to promote confidence in programming and training across the athletic spectrum. Strength Camp takes place annually in the summer right before school and sports practice starts.
