“When it comes to youth conditioning, Brian Grasso is my most trusted resource. His information products always exceed my expectations and over deliver. His philosophy of training young athletes brings together aspects from the realms of motor learning, teaching, performance enhancement, and growth and development, and integrates them into a practical and effective strategy. His generosity in sharing his knowledge has greatly assisted me, both in my clinical practice as a Physical Therapist, and as a S & C coach working with young athletes. If you are working with young athletes, Brian Grasso is the man you should listen to when developing your training strategy.”

Michael Stare, DPT, CSCS

"Brian's cutting edge knowledge and information provides us coaches with the tools to allow our athletes to develop safely and to their maximum potential. I would advise all coaches to take the time to listen"

Neil Robertson

"Brian brought our strength conditioning program to a whole new level with his knowledge and ability to motivate our players. The results speak for themselves, in the two years he worked with us we made it to the 8A State Quarterfinals for two consecutive years - this had never been done before in school history. I firmly believe that the foundation for this type of success was laid when we brought Brian into our program. His passion for strength training the “right way for the right reasons” and his desire to see people reach new levels of success is why I believe in Brian Grasso. He is an extraordinary individual whom I would highly recommend to any athlete, parent, coach, school or business"

"GREAT book! There is nothing else to say but GREAT. If a strength and conditioning and/or personal trainer doesn't have this book, they are missing out on tons of great information. This book helped me prove my training methods are in accordance with one of the leading youth fitness conditioning experts. In fact, this book even helped me to complete my training facility design. Thanks very much!"

"Brian's knowledge and passion for teaching and coaching is clearly evident in his material and articles. He loves coaching kids and he loves doing it RIGHT. I thoroughly enjoyed the Grasso Method and I can't imagine not having this wonderful resource in my library along with his Complete Functional Conditioning. His knowledge of training and ability to translate that knowledge is remarkable and a lot of kids, coaches, trainers, and parents are benefiting from it every day. I use Brian's methods as the foundation of my own training programs with the kids that I coach and the success they are having is astounding. Thank you Brian and keep up the hard work!"

Jack Gregory

"I just finished the book one week to the day I received it. As the head therapist for a youth soccer development company I am responsible for and consistently searching for current information about youth training. Your book Training Young Athletes - The Grasso Method has taken current information about youth training and put it into an easy to read format. It has solidified bits and parts of information I have picked up over the last couple of years and confirmed some of my own thoughts on youth training and development. I extremely pleased that you covered the myths about resistance training with respect to growth plate involvement and machine based exercises (yuck). As someone who has been in the field of therapy for just under twenty years it is great to have some one like yourself dedicated to youth development. This is a MUST READ for any one working with young athletes."

Mike Grafstein
B.Ph.Ed, CAT(C), CSCS, MT, D.Ac

"Unfortunately with early sports specialization being the norm in youth sports today, athleticism becomes the missing link with in our developing youth athletes. Kids need to be prepared for anything they want to do movement wise not just knowing how to perform their sport skill. With that being said anyone who utilizes the methods presented in Brian Grasso's DVD/book Complete Functional Conditioning, will be on their way to becoming successful as a complete athlete and being able to enjoy fitness and conditioning not only now but as a lifetime endeavor. I highly recommend these products be in every parent, coach and athletes library!"

Mike Barone, NASM-CPT

"After reading Training Young Athletes - The Grasso Method by Brian Grasso, there is no doubt who is leading the industry in youth coaching. I have basically taken all my books on youth training and put them in storage - The Grasso Method covers it all! I highly encourage coaches and trainers of young athletes to make this book your next purchase. You won't believe the difference it will make!"

Lee Taft
World Class Speed Coach

"Once again, Brian Grasso has demonstrated why he is the leader in the youth conditioning field. Brian’s book goes far beyond describing specific exercises - it revisits a long forgotten and underutilized training paradigm - teach a child the mechanics of proper movement, engage the athlete's mind as well as their body, use sound training principles based upon personal experience, science, and common sense and your athlete will succeed 100% of the time. If you are working with youth athletes, I strongly urge you to get your hands on this manual- your athlete’s success depends on it"

Dr. Evan Osar
Functional Anatomy Specialist

"Nothing has more impact on an athlete's ultimate progress than the habits, skills, and attitudes he or she acquires in youth. Right now, there is no man in the industry who is more trusted to instill these things properly than Brian Grasso"

Sean Hyson
Fitness Editor, Men's Fitness

"I loved it! Let’s start putting the emphasis back on the coaches to actually look at the long term development of today’s youth athletes. ‘Speed and Movement Technique’ ebook breaks-down movements into teachable skills, in a systematic order, helping athletes reach their full potential. It's not just a list of drills with no direction or purpose. Another great resource Brian!"

Pat Beith
Speed Training Expert

"I wanted to let you know that I have been very impressed with the results seen in my son in just two months of training. Chris' own observed performance improvements have greatly enhanced his excitement for your training, and his overall athletic confidence is steadily increasing. Your training program balances the proper combination of operating mechanics, physical development and physiological knowledge to empower young athletes to reach beyond their self-imposed limits and maximize their athletic performance. Thank you for providing your guidance in Chris' overall development."

Mike Rudnicki
Father of 2 young athletes

"As a 51 year old father and coach of three young athletes ages 8, 10 and 15, I could not believe my eyes when I saw your book "Complete Functional Conditioning" and the companion DVD. As a successful young athlete myself, I used these methods to train as a soccer player. Not only has it revived my interest in helping my children but I have also revitalized myself by joining them in workouts. By the way all three are training in different sports and we do encourage them to participate in all kinds of activities. It is about time that somebody was able to present this information in such a clear and concise manner through your website and products. Keep up the good work. The word will get out! Good luck and I look forward to more great information in the near future, especially your certification program."

George Zarytsky
Father of 3 young athletes
