Testimonials
I had so much fun checking out this gym and doing a workout with Tim of Apex Sports Athletics. He helped make a custom workout just for me. It was so good and I actually learned a lot while I was there. Tim shared that he helps people on all sorts of fitness journeys. Whether it’s prep for college sports, helping a high school team or even helping someone remain strong and independent as they get older. For me, it’s strengthening my body after having kids. I also like the idea of doing workout groups with friends through a trainer! How fun! 360 Fitness is a really nice facility for versatile workouts which I LOVE
Felicia Killman
If you are looking for solid training advice and individualized workout plans catered toward what your goals definitely give Tim a shot. He helped set me through a custom superset workout that had me hitting all my priorities and definitely had me sweating. Tim is just an awesome, positive guy that I enjoy to work with.

We highly recommend Tim from Apex Sports Athletics. He's been a game-changer for our son's athletic growth this summer after dealing with injuries. His personalized training approach has really boosted our son's strength and soccer skills for the upcoming competitive season. We love working with Tim!

You don’t have to be an athlete to benefit from the skill and expertise of Tim Barnes at Apex Sport Athletics!! As a senior citizen, I believe it’s critical for me to build and maintain my strength and balance, but I can’t do it on my own … I need a coach, and Tim is excellent at that!! Way less expensive than the price of falls and other injuries as we age!!
