History

Core Performance has a rich history and a validated track record of success. The foundation for everything we do, from our articles to our training programs, is the proven approach developed by the experts at Athletes’ Performance. Athletes' Performance has trained many of the top champions in sports, from NFL first round draft picks to World Cup heroes, Green Jacket winners, and MLB All-Stars.

Mark Verstegen founded Athletes' Performance in 1999 to help athletes perform better. What started as a parking lot, some medicine balls, and a handful of dedicated athletes and coaches has fast become an internationally renowned performance facility with cutting-edge training based on the latest sports science and the best and brightest experts from all over the world. The setting has changed, but the commitment to our athletes remains the same.

Today, Athletes' Performance is frequently featured on ESPN and in magazines and newspapers worldwide as the preferred and premier place for champions to train. But you don’t have to be an elite athlete to take advantage of world-class methods. Core Performance was founded for people who will commit to doing what it takes to achieve more with their lives and their bodies.
