At Podium Performance we believe in coaching the PERSON not just the program. This means that each person who trains with Podium starts with movement, performance, nutrition, and goals assessments. These in depth assessments allow Christian to know exactly what each athlete wants to accomplish and exactly what they need in order to accomplish their goals. That is just the start of the journey to the top of your podium!

MEET OUR COACHES
CHRISTIAN HARTFORD
Christian Hartford has been a performance coach for over 10 years working at the highest level of sport. During Christian’s time with USA Beach Volleyball, he trained April Ross and Alix Klineman on their journey to winning the Gold Medal at the Tokyo Olympic Games. Christian also coached several sports at the university level winning conference championships at both Maryland and Northwestern.
Christian coaches the athlete first and then the program. The training goal is to manage the stressors of the athletes, including all stressors outside the weight room. This ensures that the performance training is not overflowing the athlete’s “bucket”. The athlete, as an individual, always comes first at Podium Performance, and this helps create consistent, long-term improvements in performance.
