Personal Training for Athletes

NASM-certified trainer Trevor Cassidy designs programs specifically for athletes. Personalized coaching in NYC, Northern NJ, or online.

NASM-certified personal trainer Trevor Cassidy has 13+ years of experience designing programs for athletes. Whether you train in person across New York City and Northern New Jersey or work with Trevor online from anywhere in the country, every program is built around your specific needs, goals, and experience level.

Common Challenges

  • Generic gym programs that do not translate to sport performance
  • Recurring injuries from imbalanced training
  • Plateaued performance despite consistent effort

Your Goals

  • Improve sport-specific power, speed, and endurance
  • Reduce injury risk through targeted prehab work
  • Peak for competitions or athletic seasons

Key Benefits

Sport-Specific Power and Speed Development

Your program includes plyometrics, Olympic lift variations, and sprint mechanics tailored to the force vectors and velocities your sport demands. You get faster and more explosive in the directions that matter.

Reduced Injury Risk on the Field

Targeted strengthening of commonly injured areas — ACL-protective hamstring work for cutting sports, rotator cuff prehab for overhead athletes — keeps you competing instead of rehabbing.

Energy System Conditioning That Matches Your Game

A tennis match and a 10K race tax completely different energy systems. Trevor programs conditioning that mirrors the work-to-rest ratios and intensity demands of your specific sport.

Competitive Edge Over Opponents Who Only "Work Out"

Most recreational athletes train randomly. Structured sport-specific programming gives you a measurable advantage in strength, speed, and endurance against competitors who lack a real plan.

Who This Is For

  • Competitive and recreational athletes across all sports
  • Former athletes returning to sport or maintaining fitness
  • Weekend warriors who want sport-specific conditioning

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes athletic personal training different from regular personal training?
Athletic training focuses on sport-specific movement patterns, power development, and energy system conditioning rather than general fitness. Trevor Cassidy — a former professional rugby player with Rugby United New York — programs plyometrics, agility drills, and periodized strength blocks that peak around your competition schedule. The NSCA recommends sport-specific programming for athletes because it produces significantly better transfer to on-field performance than general strength work alone.
Can personal training help prevent sports injuries?
Yes. Targeted prehab exercises, mobility work, and corrective movements reduce common athletic injuries by up to 50%, according to a 2014 meta-analysis in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Trevor uses NASM Corrective Exercise protocols to identify muscle imbalances and movement compensations before they become injuries.
Do you work with recreational athletes or only competitive ones?
Trevor trains athletes at every level — from weekend runners preparing for their first half-marathon to competitive team-sport athletes. The programming intensity and specificity are scaled to your sport, experience, and goals. Whether you play in a local league or compete nationally, the approach is tailored to your needs.
