"I have worked with Rahsaan for several years now, and there is no one who is more dedicated to excellence than he is. He is a master of both conditioning and the technical aspects of Boxing & Kickboxing. Not only has he enjoyed success in the ring as a fighter, but his students are living proof of his skills as an instructor and coach."

"Mr Kimbrow really knows his stuff! He got me into fighting shape when I still lived in Baltimore and I'm eternally grateful. I still continue to hit him up for fitness advice even now, living all the way out here in Texas. He's extremely patient in his descriptions when explaining exercises, his background in the science of exercise & nutrition is very strong, and he has a very motivating personality that keeps you going even when you want to go home and go to bed. I can't recommend them highly enough. Give it a shot, believe me, you won't regret it!"

- E. Koeppen

"Rahsaan is an outstanding coach and trainer. I am a martial artist who was trying to get back in shape this summer after taking some time off in school. I ended up having weekly one on one Sanda sessions with Rahsaan and he pushed me as hard as I could go. I couldn't have picked anyone better to restart my martial arts career."

- N. Cambell

"One of the best fitness instructors I have had over the years! Rahsaan is super knowledgeable and even makes some of the harder workouts fun if that is even possible! Highly recommend!"

- D. Orndorff

"I have worked with many different personal trainers and fitness programs, and I am amazed at Rahsaan’s knowledge and ability to produce results. His classes, based on an understanding of human physiology and response to stimulus, provide a workout totally different from anything I had ever tried before. I am stronger, more flexible, faster, and I no longer experience pain in my back and hip when lifting things. I used to have to take several different classes to get the full benefits of calisthenics, cardiovascular training, weightlifting, kettle bells, and martial arts, Rahsaan is an expert in all of these fields. I feel like I am in the best shape of my life!"

"I feel I am on the path to reaching my fitness goals and feeling my best. I know you will work me hard and not cut me any “slack”, particularly on days I don’t feel my best. Sometimes I dread coming to class knowing I’m going to get pushed hard, but that is what I need! At the end of the work out I feel good and am glad I did it.

I love the fact that I get a total body workout, while enhancing my ability to defend myself at the same time. Also, I feel my flexibility has improved immensely!! I also like the variety of exercises and not knowing what may come next."

"Rahsaan has great knowledge of what a fighter needs to be successful in the ring. Its the kind of technical knowledge that comes with deep experience in the field. I have recommend him to my fighters with champion results and I recommend him to anyone looking to improve their physical conditioning regardless of where they are coming from."

"Coach Kimbrow is an amazing coach and trainer! I have referred many clients to him, including few NFL guys. Everyone gave him thumbs up!

I've lived in 7 or more states and I have had MANY trainers, coaches. I honestly did not realize how much I was learning from him, until I moved. Every time I came to town, I try to get a session with him. The past few boxing, martial arts instructors I have had all commented on my training, and say I had a good coach! He is always educating himself, he's very knowledgeable, dependable, gifted and a great energy to be around. Be consistent w your training w him, and you will definitely learn a lot!"

"Coach Rahsaan Kimbrow is very knowledgeable in the field of fitness and martial arts. He's a hands on trainer who focuses not just on technique but proper execution of the technique and that's what you want to look for during your workout. I'm proud to endorse Coach Rahsaan Kimbrow and look forward to working with him again."

Camping Season

A summer strength and conditioning camp can give high school athletes in all sports a constructive activity for their months off and a competitive edge for the coming year.

By Jeff Decker & Tim McClellan

Jeff Decker, MEd, CSCS, is Strength and Conditioning Coach at Mountain Pointe High School in Phoenix, Ariz. He can be reached at: jedecker@cox.net. Tim McClellan, MS, CSCS, is Director of Performance Enhancement for Makeplays.com and author of the book Inner Strength Inner Peace. He can be reached at: tim@strengthandpeace.com.

Mountain Pointe High School in the Tempe (Ariz.) Union High School District has enjoyed a tradition of achievement both academically and athletically since it first opened its doors in 1992. With 31 state championships, 26 state runner-up finishes, and 125 regional titles in less than two decades, the school has a lot to be proud of.

Last year, in an effort to continue this level of success, Principal Bruce Kipper adopted the mantra of the International Center for Education Leadership: "Rigor, Relevance, and Relationships." For the athletic programs, this meant it would be a year of new ideas and expanding horizons.

Among the changes was a new head coach taking over the football program. Kipper and Athletic Director Ian Moses wanted an experienced coach with a proven track record in all aspects of coaching who would also serve as an educational leader. They found Norris Vaughan, who brought with him a team-building philosophy that had achieved impressive success at other schools. Vaughan looked forward to turning around a program that had struggled through a 2-8 season the previous year, and a major part of his rebuilding philosophy involved a renewed emphasis on strength and conditioning.

As part of this renewal, we worked with him to create the 2009 Mountain Pointe High School Summer Strength and Conditioning Camp. Participating in a summer program is an outstanding way for high school athletes to gain a leg up in the coming year's sports and to do something constructive during their time off. When planned properly, a summer strength camp can be productive, educational, and a lot of fun for everyone involved.
