More About Coach Malcolm

I gained an interest in developing youth athletes, as a way to give back to the community that I have been a part of my entire life. I started volunteer coaching and training athletes with Next Level Elite basketball club in the summber of 1998 and continuing when my own children became of age with the Marlboro Boys & Girls Club. I've taken my passion for developing youth and getting them better to several travel / elite clubs including Bowie Express, Maryland's Finest, Severn Elite, Metro Celtics, DC Heat and St. Anselm's Abbey School. This extensive exposure has created a public demand for SMAQ Training and ultimately SMAQ Fitness to meet the health needs of not only athletes but the general population and promote a world that... MOVES, FEELS, AND GETS BETTER.

For the past three years, I have been working as an independent professional trainer. I enjoy every minute of it and the freedom of being my own boss. In addition to being National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) Certified Personal Traininer, I hold the Performance Enhancement Specialist (PES) credentials, also through NASM. I also hold CPR/AED certification valid through 2015. I recently earned the Youth Nutrition Specialist credentials from the International Youth Conditioning Association (IYCA). I'm also most proud of my "Double Goal Coach" certification awarded to those that have learned how to coach to win but more importantly use sports to teach "life lessons".

As a youth I looked forward to practices in the evening no matter the sport. I enjoyed the camaraderie of my teammates, I enjoyed competing but even more than that, I loved getting better... The newness that it brought to my God given abilities and the feeling of preparedness it created gave the confidence to a naturally introverted boy to deal with an unknown future.

This passion and drive to get better carried me through my scholastic, collegiate and business careers. With my affinity for basketball, I continued to compete and enjoy the camaraderie of my teammates at Northwestern HS and North Carolina A&T State University.

After an assessment a typical SMAQ session is as follows:

Warm Up:
SMR / Jump Ropes / Agility Ladders / Lunge Series

Focus Drills: (Depending on Program Goals)
Plyometrics / Agility & Quickness / Strength Endurance / Reaction Training / Cardio & Stamina Conditioning

Push-Up Series
Different variations of the common push-up to build upper body strength and core stability

Core Series
Different core exercises to strengthen and stabilize the trunk

Thanks Malcom for the training! He gave some great info, encouragement, and he was patient. Great teacher/coach!

Coach Malcolm ran a variety of ball handling and shooting drills to evaluate player strengths and weaknesses. Coach participates directly with the player performing the drills to demonstrate correct technique and to provide feedback to the player as the drills progress. Very beneficial. Looking forward to the next session.

Coach Malcolm T is Great!!! Very aware of the strengths and weaknesses of my daughter. He also knew how to effectively motivate and encourage her! So many of the tools and techniques used during his one-on-one sessions I was surprised that she grasped so quickly. During her next game she came out boldly and confident and made her first two free throw shots, her first during season. She was so excited thanks coach Malcolm T!!!

Excellent training

Great teacher!

Great coach

Put in place an initial session for my son, out of the gate I can see the results. Will be scheduling more sessions.

My 15 year old son has been playing basketball for about 8 years but lacked confidence he needed to get to the next level. I'm not exaggerating when I say after 1 session I saw a big difference in my son. He definitely believes in his abilities now. Thanks Coach!!

My son Rahkim just started with Coach Malcolm a few sessions ago and already his confidence and game have improved tremendously! Coach Malcolm is great about speaking to my son about what the drills they were doing were for. From his first session I knew he'd be a great coach. My son's initial session was only supposed to be an hour. We were running late and not only did Coach Malcolm work with him the entire hour, he continued to provide one on one help to him for another hour and a half! My son really really enjoys his sessions thusfar and we are looking forward to continuing with Coach Malcolm as long as he'll have us:)

My 11-year-old son really appreciated Coach Malcolm's techniques during his first session and is looking forward to working with Malcolm in the future. He felt challenged during the session and was excited about everything he learned during the drills. All in all, it was very positive experience.

coach malcolm is great. my son loves him. we have committed to coach malcolm for the next month

Definitely knowledgeable about the game, ready to work and full of energy. I'm excited.

Coach Malcom was great with daughter! He was patient and very informative. Rashell my daughter can't wait to try out all the technics that he showed her in her routines. I've definitely saw more confidence while and after he worked with her. I would definitely recommend coach Malcolm !!

Coach Malcolm is a thorough, generous and dedicated professional trainer. He communicates extremely well. He also exhibits a great balance between patience while aggressively pushing developing athletes toward a higher expectation.

Coach Malcolm was awesome. His coaching was great and he worked with my son that at his regular basketball practice it showed just from that one day. My son is excited and talks about his "new coach" with his team and excited about his new session.

I really enjoyed my workouts with Coach Malcolm. We did two two hour session days apiece, and though they were definitely challenging, the positive encouragement alone made a huge difference in my game. The drills were excellent, the gear top notch and the knowledge of the game is clearly A1. I've played at the high school college and AAU levels and gone to big camps like Five Star, and yet Coach brought out drills and nuances of never been taught before. Thanks!

Amazing session! Coach Malcolm utilizes his vast knowledge of fitness and basketball to pinpoint a plan and reachable goal. Coach works through every step with the player, he is active and encouraging the entire session. This is a hands on coach not just standing on the side calling guides, every plank, every lunge coach participated in through the entire session a true model. I can't say enough how excited we were when we left the session. Looking forward to the future impact.

We had our first session with Coach Malcolm Saturday. He worked well with my son. His techniques for pushing him were exceptional. Jay can't wait for his next session. Coach Malcolm takes pride in preparing his athletes for the game. I highly recommend Coach Malcolm to get your athlete game ready!

Great trainer. He can push you to work hard and he can take you to the next level. The first day I trained with him he had me working hard and I can't wait till our next sessions ...

My son thoroughly enjoys training with Coach Malcolm! The work outs are tough but they are helping with strength, agility, and endurance which are all needed to improve basketball skills. I would highly recommend him.

Coach Malcolm pushes my son to perform at his best. The physical training with top-of-the-line equipment, and the mental challenge to play smart, is taking my son's game to a higher level. What's even more encouraging is that he gives his all as well! I strongly recommend him!

I had a great session with coach Malcolm. He is very knowledgeable of the game, and will push you to get to the next level. I recommend booking a session with him ASAP. Our session was broken up into two parts, and I was pushed to my limit during both parts.

I read the positive reviews about Coach Malcolm and I see why. Our first session was on point. My son said it was hard but he enjoyed every minute. Coach Malcolm is very knowledgable about the game of basketball. I can see my sons confidence growing in just one session. I highly recommend him.

I held off posting a review of Coach Malcolm until all our sessions were complete. From Session 1 through Session 12, Malcolm was punctual, consistent, energetic, and has made a difference to my son's game. I didn't know what to expect from the coaching sessions but seeing the noticeable improvement and confidence in my son's game has made this a tremendously successful and worthwhile effort. Many thanks Malcolm for working and improving all facets of Kai's game.

Coach Malcolm is great. Having both our boys with him we truly feel that he can get them to the next level. His key sense of executing the warm up/excersises correctly to avoid any injuries makes his sessions even better. He is reliable and has our boys best interest at hand. Strongly rerecomended !!!!!

My son greatly benefited from his first session with Coach Malcolm. Coach Malcolm sensed all the weaknesses my son needed to work-on and he put him through "the paces". My son's confidence improved after the first session.

I am signing my son up for more sessions with Coach Malcolm and I highly recommend him to other athletes.

Coach Malcolm understands the game but more importantly he know how to motivate. My son really enjoyed working with Coach Malcolm and provided him both constructive criticism to help him improve and motivation to keep him moving forward. Great Coach.

My son says "Coach Malcom is very hard-working and easy to relate to. When you walk into the gym, he always wants the best out of you". As a parent I agree 100%. Coach Malcom isn't a sideline/bench instructor, he's out on the floor working with you. You visibly see he is giving 100% and this motivates my son to step up his game. Great coach/instructor!!

We were impressed with the training techniques, encouragement and individual attention Coach Malcolm gave our son. Coach Malcolm's knowledge of the game and challenging workouts will definitely help our 15 year old son meet his goals. Coach Malcolm is very professional and we highly recommend him.

Great first session with Coach Malcolm, My son is showing improvements already and I think using this service was a good move in the right direction.
