Client Reviews
Malik Nau Former Track & Football athlete East Lee County High. 2 times 4x100 Relay District Champs (Testimonial)
Being coached under coach Pete was probably one of the greatest things that ever happened to me as an athlete. He is without a doubt one of the best coaches I've ever had the pleasure of playing for. Everyday in practice he pushes you to levels you didn't even know you had and motivates you to be the best you can be. Always positive and upbeat and genuinely a great person. I would love the opportunity to play for him again or maybe coach along side him someday.
Stefanie Minihan High School Track & Field Coach Member USATF (Testimonial)
Coach Gooden is a dedicated, skilled, and passionate coach. He continues to impress me with his first-hand knowledge of training for and competing in sprint and jumping events. His personal skills are incredible and allow him to push his athletes beyond what they believe they are capable. Working with Coach Gooden will be an invaluable asset to any athlete who wants to excel at the highest level in track and field.
J'Ravien Anderson Division 1 Football Player (Testimonial)
After putting in time and stepping up to Coach Pete speed training workouts, I seen my times in track drop drastically. His workouts helped me become more explosive, which also increased my acceleration. Coach Pete was very focused on the little details that most people ignore. In my little time training with Coach Pete I became a stronger runner in which gave me a big advantage over my opponents. Best Speed trainer I've been with hands down!
