Your potential isn’t generic.
Your coaching shouldn’t be either.

Coaching

Built around you.

Three ways to train with Meridian Performance. Choose the level of support that fits your goals, your schedule and the way you like to train.

Your training is built around your goals, experience, movement ability, schedule, and lifestyle, not a generic workout template.

Beyond our sessions, you’ll receive the structure and accountability needed to keep making progress outside the gym, including programming, nutrition guidance, progress tracking, and regular check-ins.

The Meridian Method

A clear path from where you are to where you want to be.

  1. Step 01 of 04

    Discover

    It starts with a conversation.

    Before recommending anything, I want to understand you.

    We’ll talk about your goals, training history, lifestyle, schedule, nutrition, previous successes and struggles, and most importantly, what has prevented you from getting where you want to go on your own.

    This isn’t a high-pressure sales pitch. It’s an opportunity for us to determine what you actually need and whether Meridian Performance is the right fit to help you get there.

  2. Step 02 of 04

    Assess

    Understand the starting point.

    If we’re meeting in person, we’ll establish objective baselines through tools such as body-composition measurements and a movement assessment.

    We’ll look at how you move, where you’re strong, where limitations exist, and what your current fitness level looks like.

    Instead of guessing what you need, we establish a starting point we can build from.

  3. Step 03 of 04

    Build

    Create your roadmap.

    Once we understand where you are and where you want to go, we build the system around you.

    That can include your personalized training plan, nutrition targets and habits, weekly schedule, accountability structure, progress metrics, and resources to make execution easier in the real world.

    The goal isn’t to create the theoretically perfect plan.

    It’s to create the best plan you can consistently follow.

  4. Step 04 of 04

    Coach, Measure & Adjust

    Execution is where coaching actually begins.

    From your first training session forward, we’ll work through the plan together while tracking progress and making adjustments based on your results.

    You’ll learn proper technique, understand why you’re doing what you’re doing, develop confidence in the gym, and receive consistent accountability outside of it.

    Through regular check-ins, progress reviews, and ongoing communication, we continue asking:

    • What’s working?
    • What’s not?
    • What needs to change?

    Your program evolves as you do.

Chance has a very thoughtful and thorough approach to personal training. I really appreciated how he started with a detailed intake, took the time to understand my goals, and then walked me through physical assessments before jumping into exercises. It gave me a much clearer understanding of where I am now and what the roadmap forward could look like. He’s knowledgeable, attentive, and makes the whole process feel very personalized. Highly recommend Chance!

Personal Trainer Chance is a beast! I have nothing but good things to say about him. He is a master of his trait, thoughtful, and very respectful. I am already very fit but Chance showed me how to push my limits. I attended a group class with him and I walked out sweating, sore, and feeling amazing. It didn’t take much convincing to sign up for 1:1 personal training.

Wonderful underground facility with everything you need. Have worked with Coach Chance who’s highly knowledgeable and clearly has a passion for what he does—it shows in his work ethic. This gym is dedicated to the craft & has an on-site chiropractor / physical therapist. Highly recommend whether you prefer solo or group sessions. Daily Grind Media also on site—they specialize in high quality digital marketing—all with stellar vibes.
