More About Coach William
Currently I'm the founder and president/CEO of Martin Athletics Association, LLC and a part-time Assistant Track and Field Coach at Rutgers University - Camden, NJ. I coach the jumps and sprints. My duties as a jumps and sprinters coach are to get our athletes ready for competition, have them train at the best of their abilities, to help strengthen their weaknesses, to help perfect their strengths, to allow them to have fun, and to get them to their goals injury free. This is what I want for all of my athletes I coach.
As an athlete myself who still competes and has competed in high school and in college, I am no stranger as you can probably see, to the sport of track and field, cross country, and road racing. When it comes to experience with training or coaching athletes, I have experience with the giving sound training and coaching advice to the everyday athlete that trains for anything from a 55m dash to running a marathon and even to the jumping field events. I provide this training and coaching advice to the running groups that I run with, my athletes at Rutgers University - Camden, and I apply them to myself to as a USATF Master Athlete. I'm also the type of coach that trains with whoever I'm coaching. I will run and jump with you. I often don't sit on the sidelines. I will get out there and provide examples of how to do something. When it comes to age groups, I prefer working with 25 year of age and up but have no problem working with middle school aged kids to adults at the master level. Virtually or in person, I'm here to help athletes to reach their goals and potential.
As a professional and certified running coach, I’ve learned that the journey to success starts from within. That’s why when it comes to running fitness, I stress that the value of every athlete is not only based on their current skill set, but on their passion and desire to grow.
If you are a competitive master athlete 35 years of age and older or compete as a pre-masters athlete and a sub-masters athlete in the age range of 25-34 years of the age, please come and join me today! I also welcome those who just enjoy the sport of running and track/field and just need some help with their training goals and running techniques.
We all need someone to give us that little push to see results and improvements. Let me be the one to push you safely and professionally to get to your desired results. I can personally customize a plan for you or you can use the standard plans that I have on my website that I can share with you. Remember, before starting any physical activity, please get clearance from your physician first and please read our terms, policies, and conditions before starting any training.
OK now!! Let's get ready to do this together. Remember iron sharpens iron!

Athletic accomplishments. Well I ran track & field in high school as well as cross country. I did the same sports in college under a two year scholarship. I ran at Cheltenham High School in Wyncote, PA. I've received several All Suburban awards for track and field and cross country and the prestigious Holden Award there too. At Morgan State University, unfortunately, I got injured and had to sit out my last 1/2 of my second year and could shine as brightly as I did in high school. I felt that I didn't perform as well as I wanted to also. Two years after I graduated college 1994, I took up Tae Kwon Do and earned my 2nd degree black belt. Was still doing a little running and to staying a little fit but not competing. But it wasn't until 2011 that I started seriously getting back into running and competing. Between then and now I have taken up Tai Ji(Chinese Martial Arts), ran 5 marathons, 50+ 5ks, 20+ half-marathons, 5 marathons, and I compete and place in my age group many times as an unattached athlete and as a USATF Master Athlete on the track and running road races. I have many more goals to accomplish and I'm just getting started.
A typical session with Coach Will. What I like to do when first meet an athlete or even some one new to training for any kind of running event is to get some kind of bench mark to see where they are physically and mentally. I will have them run a 200m, a 400m, a 800m, a 1600m, and even a 5K all out but on different days of the first week of training. This would give me a sense of how to train each athlete and it will let me know were their strengths are. The results are basically that athletes bass. This is what I build off from. After they do these bench mark runs I would talk to them individually about a training plan geared for them or a hybrid group type of plan that can be used to help them. Of course before all of this benchmark testing, we will go through a 5-10min warm up and drills session.
It's best to have an athlete go through the process that I mentioned above because as a coach it gives me a chance to see who I'm working with and how I can better help them to accomplish their goals.

first session went really well, coach will is definitely good with kids, if that is what you need. seems focused on the whole package, not just jump mechanics but also all around fitness.
Marques (CoachUp client)
Coach Martin worked with my daughter to improve her form and taught her how to run her race. He answered all of her questions and explained how each drill would help her. He had her looking better in three sessions.
Ryan (CoachUp client)
Great coach
Patty (CoachUp client)
My daughter just started with coach Will and we were immediately impressed. He's nice, knowledgeable, and has guided us on the steps we need to take to help our daughter reach her college goals. I really like how he instructs our daughter on improving her techniques, and instructs her on what to practice. Also, he follows up with an email that goes over what the did that session.
We look forward to him helping our daughters develop into the athlete she was to be.

Coach William was great and understanding. My daughter had her first session and he explained to her what they have to work on in details. She can’t wait for her next session.

Coach William is an excellent trainer due to the fact that he lives and breathes athletics. It's important that you are able to connect with a trainer that has your best interest at heart. This will only improve not just the physical state of the athlete but also the athlete's mental status. We will definitely book another session with Coach William!

Cynthia (CoachUp client)
My daughter loved her first session and wants coach William to be her coach.I personally like his way of coaching, he first assessed my daughter strength to know where she is and also explains the basics of the field to her.
Joe Collins, Vice Captain of Black Men Run South New Jersey (Testimonial)
Will is an excellent running mentor and coach who has taught me the importance of form and pacing. Within 3 years, my 5k time dropped 4 minutes. This improvement would not had been possible without the guidance and instruction from William Martin. He definitely took my running to another level. I would highly recommend his coaching services.
