Train like an athlete.
A coached online program from In The Core Athlete, the sports performance gym in Boulder. Built to help you look, feel and perform the way you want.
"If you have a body, you're an athlete."
Bill Bowerman, legendary coach and Nike co-founder
So why not train like one? ITC Prime Performance is for adults who want more from their training than burning calories. You want to be strong, move well, stay athletic and look the part, and you want a plan built by people who train athletes for a living.
It's a fit if you:
- want a clear plan instead of guessing what to do each day;
- want strength, muscle, power and conditioning in one program;
- want training that keeps you feeling good, not beat up;
- want a real coach to answer your questions.
Everything you need to train with purpose
Most online programs hand you a plan. ITC Prime Performance gives you a coach.

Real sports performance training, built for adults
At In The Core Athlete, we train athletes of every age and level. ITC Prime Performance brings that same approach to you:
Athlete first, every week.
Every week trains strength, power, muscle, conditioning and mobility.
Strength is the foundation.
You’ll progress steadily on the big lifts.
Muscle on purpose.
Enough muscle-building work to deliver the “look” part of the goal.
Durability is trained, not hoped for.
Joints, tendons, trunk and balance get deliberate work, so you can keep training for years.
Consistency beats heroics.
Hard where it counts, sustainable everywhere else.
Every session starts with a smart, focused warm-up built around that day’s main lift, so you feel ready before the real work begins.
Built by a coach who lives it
The program was designed by ITC coach Ryan Carter. Ryan has trained in the ITC system since he was ten, through standout high school and college soccer careers and a D1 strength and conditioning internship. He is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (NSCA-CSCS) and is completing his Master’s in Strength and Human Performance.
That expertise shows in every detail: a full year planned in phases, sessions ranked by priority, and a warm-up built around each day’s main lift. Nothing is in the program because it looks cool. Everything is there because it works.
When you message your coach, you’re talking to Ryan.

FAQ
Do I need to have played sports?
No. ITC Prime Performance is for anyone who wants to train like an athlete, whether you played in college or you’re just getting started with structured training.
What equipment do I need?
A commercial gym works best. At home you’ll need a barbell and free weights, bands, a pull-up bar, an adjustable bench and a sturdy step or box. No squat rack required.
How much time does it take?
Four sessions a week, about 60 to 70 minutes each including the warm-up. If you can only train three days in a week, you do the first three sessions.
Is the program personalized?
Everyone follows the same expertly designed program. Your coach helps you adjust it through private messaging, including swaps, scaling and form feedback.
What if I have an injury or pain?
Check with your medical provider before you start. The program includes clear rules for training around pain, and you can message your coach any time something doesn’t feel right. ITC Prime Performance is a training program, not physical therapy.
When does it start?
Founding members start in January. Waitlist members hear first when spots open.
