Questions about memberships and pricing

What is Your Early Termination Policy?

We understand that members sometimes need to leave early. That's why our early termination policy is as fair and as transparent as possible. All 1 Month Memberships must run their course. For our discounted 3‑month and 12‑month Performance Fitness memberships, you are committing to a fixed term in exchange for a lower monthly rate than our flexible 1‑month option. You may request to end your agreement early by submitting written notice (email info@athleticlab.com), with the cancellation effective as of the date we receive your request. No refunds will be processed for charges that have already processed. If you choose to terminate a 3‑month or 12‑month membership early and there are 2 or fewer months remaining on your contract at the time of your request, a flat Early Termination Fee of $99 will be charged; if you terminate early and there are 3 or more months remaining, a flat Early Termination Fee of $149 will be charged. There are no refunds for punch card packages once the punch card has been used. Punch card sessions may be transferred to another individual upon request. Any cancellations requiring a refund or a partial refund will incur an administrative fee.

What is Your Membership Hold (Freeze) Policy?

We permit account paid and complimentary medical holds to freeze your account. Paid holds are charged $10 per 7 day period for a maximum of 28 days ($40) for instances such as vacations. Holds must be requested in advance of an absence, not retroactively. Holds will not be placed on an account if the account's billing is overdue. Payments must be up-to-date at the time a hold is placed. Day 1-7: $10; Day 8-14: $20; Day 15-21: $30; Day 22-28: $40 Alternatively, complimentary medical holds are provided with a doctor's note for illness/injury for the amount of time prescribed by the doctor as included in the note. The note must be for the member specifically, not for a family member, etc. There is a limit to the maximum length of a hold. Depending on the illness or injury, if medical holds require extensive time off, a membership cancellation is highly advised.

What are the Age Requirements for Performance Fitness (Adult) Classes?

We recommend individuals younger than 18 join our Scholastic Prep or Scholastic Sports Performance Training programs. Minors between the ages of 16 and 18 may attend our adult Performance Fitness classes with the signed consent (waiver) of a guardian, but again, we highly suggest anyone under 18 attend our sports performance classes as the adult classes often are not the best fit for younger participants. The waiver must be signed by a legal guardian prior to the initial session. Our normal policies and prices for Performance Fitness classes apply. Specifically, memberships require successful completion of our Foundations course or proven ability to bypass the course. Individuals must be 18 before participating in Open Gym, which requires an unlimited Performance Fitness membership.

What are the Age Requirements for Scholastic Classes?

We offer two options for age-group athletes: Scholastic Prep Middle School (6-8th graders) with a minimum age of 12 Scholastic High School (9-12th graders) with a minimum age of 15 We use these cut offs to ensure that athletes have the physical and social maturity to enter the program. Parents wishing to advance athletes into the high school program who do not yet meet the program eligibility requirements must complete a battery of performance tests, meeting test result requirements before advancement is allowed. There is a fee for the testing and it must be scheduled outside of class time.

Why do you cost so much?

We are not a health club. We are a training facility with hands on coaching from world class coaches. The level of instruction and the individual attention means that we cannot compete with high-volume, low-quality for low prices. With that said though, Athletic Lab provides real results that are a true value for the price of the class.

How many days a week do you recommend training?

This depends on your goals. In most cases, for athletes competing or practicing for their sport, 2-3 times per week is ideal. 3 times per week will typically yield better performance gains as long as it can be fit in to the training schedule. At 2 times per week, performance gains will still be made however if attendance drops to 1 time per week then the best one can hope for is maintenance of prior training adaptations. The same holds true for our Performance Fitness class. Most clients attend 3 times per week however those with special performance goals will often attend up to 5 times per week. As with most things fitness related, the effect is dose-dependent. The greater your frequency and commitment the greater your rewards will be.

The matches are over but we`d like to congratulate Patrick Kypson on competing at Wimbledon where he earned a spot in the main draw after breaking into the ATP Top 100 earlier this year and continuing his rise on the professional tour.

Patrick reached a major milestone, earning a Grand Slam main draw victory with an impressive four-set win over fellow American Mackenzie McDonald, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, 6-4. 

Patrick advanced to the second round before facing world No. 6 Taylor Fritz on Court 2 at the All England Club. While Fritz earned the victory, Patrick battled throughout the match and showcased the level of play that has made him one of the country`s top rising professionals.

Athletic Lab has had the privilege of being a part of Patrick`s performance journey, and we`re incredibly proud to see his hard work and dedication rewarded on one of the biggest stages in tennis. Reaching Wimbledon is a testament to years of disciplined training, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to improvement.

Congratulations, Patrick, on an outstanding achievement!

Get your stretch on! Our MoMo (Movement & Mobility) classes are offered Thursdays at 5pm. In our MoMo classes, we work on asymmetries, imbalances, and restrictions that may be limiting performance or increasing the likelihood for injuries. Paying attention to these seemingly little things allows you to keep your goals big.

Most coaches stop sets based on how athletes look, rather than how they are actually moving. VBT allows you to set a simple cutoff by monitoring bar speed. A bar speed drop of more than 20% from the first rep is an indicator that no matter how the athlete looks or what percentage of 1RM they are supposed to be moving, that they are fatigued beyond the necessary output they need to reach the target stimulus. We shut down the set so that we don’t keep the athlete accumulating a bunch of junk reps.

Top 5 Reasons to use VBT with your athletes: Reason #3: Objective load & zone prescription. Research over the years has mapped clear velocity zones for different strength qualities. Accelerative strength, strength speed, speed strength, and starting strength all live in different velocity zones. While percentage based training can target these qualities by prescribing an “ideal” load that can allow for different velocities, verifying the quality of the reps becomes a coaches visual interpretation and is subjective. Using VBT gives a clear picture of the athletes bar speed and verifies the quality of the bar speed and whether or not the target is hit on every rep.

We know there are weight room activities - squats, cleans, plyos, etc that contribute to speed development but we also know that these activities don’t come close enough to the intensity of forces and contraction speeds seen during a max velocity sprint. Therefore the best way to become faster is…..to sprint.

To reach a proper stimulus, sprinting must be done at 95%+ of the athletes max velocity. Do not confuse this with EFFORT. An athlete can be at an RPE of 10 yet not sprinting at 95%+ of their max velocity. So even if an athlete is running fast, even running as fast as they can, it doesn’t mean they are sprinting.
