Frequently Asked Questions

We are a community based youth strength and conditioning program built around principals of hard work, discipline, and mental toughness.  This is all actually just a cover story to give me to persue my life's passion of yelling at children.

NO!  SPARTANS do not acknowledge man-made boundaries on maps.  We conquer all that we see.  So, no matter where you are from you can join the SPARTAN army. 

YES!  Some of our most bad ass warriors have been female

Anyone from 2nd grade through 12th grade may enlist.  

NO!  Water is required.  Bring it in a bottle, a thermos, or a ziplock bag for all i care, but bring it.  Cleats can be worn as we will be on grass but aren't required.  Just know that if they don't wear them they will probably fall down alot and I will laugh.  They will receive a shirt but are not required to wear it.  I will warn you that the shirt is bad ass and they will probably want to wear it everywhere.  Whatever they wear, it'll get stained with grass, sweat, tears, maybe blood, who knows.  So maybe don't let then wear that throwback autographed jersey they got for their birthday.

The program is a ‘you get out what you put in’ kind of program.  Give me your warrior 3 times a week for 3 months and you will see amazing things.  You have a busy kid that wants to test themselves whenever possible, and that might be once every other week, so be it.  All armies need mercenaries.  I train who shows up.  Just don't bring them once a month and tell me the program failed.   If you don't bring your kid to training, someone failed them, and it wasn't me.

Lots of trees.  Or jog over to the bathrooms at Joseph Lawrence Park.   Other than that, it's only an hour, I suggest your child handle their business at home.

Nonsense.  This program was made for kids who didn't think they were cut out for this. Your kid might not want to do this.  Your kid might wind up hating it.  I have never met a kid that COULDN'T do it.  I have met kids who found themselves in a tough spot and looked for a way out, and their parents gave it to them.  I have never given up on a kid.  Ask around. 

That’s adorable.  I've heard it before.  Generally, people with that attitude are the ones that break first.  Prove me wrong. 

No.  Unless it's a honey badger trained to chase kids and make them run  faster.  All other animals will be eaten, probably raw

Nowhere on my field.  Sorry not sorry.  Nobody cares.
