About Genesis AP

DAVID CLAIBORNE CSCS – FOUNDER & DIRECTOR OF SPORTS PERFORMANCE

David Claiborne has a unique background in strength and power sports. With a competitive athletic background that still drives him today, David understands the requirements for athletic success.

He started as a 150lb weakling who only had speed going for him in sports.  He quickly learned that in order to become an exceptional athlete he needed to get bigger.  He then spent the next 10 years learning everything to get stronger, more powerful, and put on size without losing his speed.  Recently he was clocked running a 4.5 40 yard dash while weighing over 220lbs.  He now wants to implement everything he has learned to make you a better athlete.

When athletes need to be bigger, faster and stronger, they come to Genesis Athletic Performance.

Genesis strives to enhance athletic ability and increase quickness. We do this by training for strength, power, and endurance. As a result you will achieve a rock hard body and mentality that you can't achieve anywhere else in Houston. Our methods are based on science, experience, and in-the-trenches knowledge. You will never do a workout or exercise that our trainers have not done themselves and believe will help you reach your goals.

We combine old school ideas with innovative new breakthroughs. While always studying and researching to find more effective ways to achieve your personalized goals as fast and as safe as possible. When it comes to training we only do the things that work. There are no fluff exercises or routines that some trainer read in the latest “fitness” magazine. Strength training is at the core of our programs. All of our workouts are conducted in a motivational small group setting. We do this because competition and motivation are the best ways to push your body past limits you mentally set for yourself.  Contact Genesis Athletic Performance to get started today.

Genesis Athletic Performance has a "hardcore collegiate weight room" feel. College weight rooms provide a motivational setting that is more intense than any normal Globo Gym around.  Our new facility in NW Houston, TX has some of the very best custom equipment made.

We have equipment by Elite Fitness Systems, Perform Better, Westside Barbell, Megalift, Jump Stretch, Strength and Power, and ProMaxima. Our bars include Texas Power Bars, a Safety Squat Bar, a Multi-Grip Swiss bar, two trap deadlift bars, two 25lb. aluminum training bars, and a Rogue Bar. Our dumbbells run from 5lbs. to 120lbs. We have pairs of kettlebells that range from 10lb up to 55lb as well. Finally, we have custom made power racks and multi-use machines by Strength and Power. Unlike other facilities, we also have general conditioning equipment including two Prowler conditioning sleds and two pulling sleds for overall physical improvement. Medicine balls, stability pads, a 50ft rope, Jump Stretch Bands, Blast Straps, pull-up ropes, and chains round out our conditioning pieces.

What does this mean for you as an athlete?  You are going to get the best results possible and will be able to put the most into every workout.  Working out at a gym is one thing, but training to succeed in sports and whatever life throws at you is another. Contact Genesis Athletic Performance so you can overcome anything on the field and in life.

I have been training at Genesis for baseball season and really noticed some big changes. Because the program is personalized for what my goals are, my body is slimming down, but I am still getting stronger and putting on muscle. This has translated to my performance on the baseball field. The ball is jumping off my bat better and I’m throwing the ball a few mph’s faster now than before. I’m not as tired at the end of practice and the conditioning is a lot easier.

I really like the variety of the workouts and how each one challenges me in a different way. Some of my teammates have worked with David because of the results I’ve gotten and have noticed changes in their performance as well.
