Kids & Teens
Youth development at Pro-Fit is powered by Athlete Academy: the roadmap and the coaching young athletes need, wherever they train. Iowa City athletes get a home base right here.
The youth program
Athlete Academy is Coach Aaron's long-term athletic development program for ages 12–18 — strength, speed, jumping, landing, and injury resilience, built season over season rather than crammed before tryouts. Every athlete gets the roadmap: milestone-based progression, measured results, quarterly parent reports, and an elite coach guiding every training block.
The program travels with your athlete — train anytime, anywhere, and always know exactly what comes next.

Start here
New athletes start with On-Ramp. A new class opens every month at Pro-Fit — young athletes learn the movement fundamentals at their own pace and walk into their first training block ready. No athlete gets thrown into the deep end.

Train anywhere — and Iowa City area athletes can also train here. Athlete Academy athletes run their program in Pro-Fit's Elite Room: a dedicated training space with the racks, platforms, and tools the roadmap calls for.
Sport-specific tracks
Each track pairs the Athlete Academy development model with the demands of one sport — the same roadmap, tuned to how your athlete's game is actually played.
Vertical jump, landing mechanics, and power for club volleyball players — the demands of the sport, trained deliberately.
