Explosive Athletes Institute — Local services in Tempe

Sid, the owner of Explosive Athletes, is one of the most exceptional trainers I have ever worked with. Over the past six months, he has completely transformed my athleticism and mobility, taking my basketball performance to a new level. His training methods are not just about pushing you to your limits but about unlocking the potential you didn’t even know you had. Sid’s expertise and dedication make him one of the best in Arizona, and anyone serious about reaching their peak in sports should consider working with him.

When I first started training with Sid, my movements on the court felt limited, and I knew I needed to take my game to the next level. Through his personalized and challenging workouts, I have seen incredible improvements in my mobility and overall athletic performance. Today, I can move fluidly and with purpose, something that has enhanced every aspect of my basketball game. Sid’s approach focuses on building not just strength but also control and balance, which has made a world of difference.

One of the most exciting milestones I’ve achieved since training with Sid is being able to dunk. This was a dream of mine for years, and thanks to his targeted strength and explosive movement training, I finally made it happen. Beyond that, I feel stronger and more powerful than ever before. Whether it’s battling for a rebound or driving to the basket, I now have the confidence that I can compete at a higher level, and Sid is the reason for that transformation.

Sid’s training has also significantly improved my endurance and stamina on the court. Running up and down the floor no longer feels like a challenge; instead, I feel like I can keep up with any pace. This has not only improved my overall gameplay but also given me the energy to stay consistent throughout the entire game. The combination of strength, mobility, and endurance training has elevated me in ways I never thought possible.

In just six months, Sid has helped me become a better athlete and basketball player. His knowledge, passion, and commitment to his clients make him truly special. He has been instrumental in helping me take big steps toward my goal of becoming a pro, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to train under him. If you’re looking for someone to unlock your potential and elevate your game, Sid at Explosive...

My name is Derek Cooke Jr. Current professional player that’s played all over the world including NBA/G-League, Australia, China and all throughout Europe.

I’ve now worked with EAI for the past 6 years and some of my healthiest and most efficient seasons came after/during sessions with [EAI].

EAI has now worked with over hundreds of players from the highest level of NBA/Euroleague and has players connected through EAI in countless countries.

The dynamics of the philosophy towards his training regimen is what should interest all athletes and parents/guardians of athletes to want to work with EAI. There’s a HUGE emphasis on biomechanics and how the body works that allows athletes to know what they’re doing and how it will individually impact their game and body. There’s also emphasis on developing a routine and personalized engineering that suits the athletes work body type, skill set, schedule and recovery.

Whether it’s prehab, rehab, or strength building amongst other types of exercise you won’t find a place better suited for you than EAI. In my most objective opinion there’s no training regimen that better personalizes and enhances the growth experience as an athlete.

I’ve personally worked with guys from MVP contention in the NBA to superstars all over the world and they also would tell you that working with EAI separated their game in ways they never imagined before from learning routines to put their body through to reaching weight room goals they never thought possible for themselves.

Beyond what EAI can do for you physically the network that’s been built and still growing allows all the athletes to be connected in a global family that keeps their name buzzing in rooms due to the connections and platforms EAI is consistent with.

You can’t go wrong with EAI. Take my word and extended review as just one of the many reasons you should make contact and get started on the journey that could start, save, revamp your...

Sid Google Review I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and working with Explosive Athletes Institute the since 2017-18 season. During that time I felt more comfortable working with Sid, than my own NBA team. I would leave their facilities after working out and head straight to Explosive Athletes Institute afterwards. In working with Sid, I saw significant improvement in my knee after not feeling like myself since recovering from my knee surgery. Fast forward to present day, I’ve been working with Sid at Explosive Athletes Institute for 7 consecutive summers. I make this choice not out of convenience but out of necessity. There is simply not anyone out there who is as detailed, caring and simply good as Sid. Often times I choose to spend my summer in Phoenix at Explosive Athletes Institute over my NBA city or where I live in Miami, Florida. For example, after a season of some unexpected injuries last season, I knew that I had to get back to Explosive Athletes Institute. I spent 7 consecutive weeks in Phoenix working out with Sid in preparation for my Olympic qualifier. That much needed time would lead to me being a key contributor with the Puerto Rican National Team and qualifying for and competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics. After competing in the Olympics, I decided to spend another 5+ weeks back in Phoenix at Explosive Athletes Institute before starting the 2024-25 season. That would then translate so me being able to play the most minutes of my career, start every game, and not miss any games this season. This all a result of the time and work put in this summer with Sid. He is simply the best in the business and will be my first choice in a strength and conditioning training for as long as I play basketball...
