Our story

Pro-level coaching. Built for adults.

CRFTD Performance is the evolution of Performance Space. We bring the training methods used with NBA, Division I, and Olympic athletes to a private gym in Menlo Park, and adapt them for adults with jobs, families, and full schedules.

Every member starts with testing, trains with a coach, and follows a plan built on the art and science of coaching.

Why CRFTD

Built for adults with places to be.

Training is why you come in. The people next to you at 6 AM are why you keep coming back. Every session is coached, every program is written for you, and you'll be done before the workday starts.

  1. 01

    Private & small group

    Every session is coached. Train 1:1 or in a small group of up to 4 per coach, usually 2–3.

  2. 02

    Measured, not guessed

    InBody, force plate, and movement testing show where you start and prove your progress.

  3. 03

    Built to commit

    A 12-week first block, then month-to-month. Enough time to see real change.

  4. 04

    Built to last

    Strength, mobility, and durability that keep you active for decades, not just the next few weeks.

The CRFTD Method

Progress you can measure.

One repeatable process, so you always know the goal and how far you've come.

  1. 01

    Test

    InBody, force plate, and movement testing set your baseline.

  2. 02

    Find the gaps

    We pinpoint what's holding you back: strength, mobility, power, or left-right imbalances.

  3. 03

    Train the plan

    Coached sessions built around your gaps, your level, and your schedule.

  4. 04

    Retest & review

    InBody every 4–6 weeks, plus strength or force plate testing at your level. Your plan adjusts to the numbers.

Where everyone starts

CRFTD Fundamentals

Before you commit to a program, we learn how you move, how you're built, and what you need. Three sessions. Real numbers. Then you choose your path with a coach who knows your body.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

I haven't trained in years. Is this for me?

Yes. CRFTD Fundamentals exists for exactly this. We start with your baseline and teach the movements before we add load. Most of our members are parents and professionals, not pro athletes.

Why do I have to do Fundamentals first?

So your coach knows how you move before you train in a group. The assessment and two 1:1 sessions let us set safe starting loads, flag anything to work around, and recommend the right program.

Which level is right for me?

New to lifting or getting back into it? Start with Full Body Toning & Strength, which has beginner and advanced groups and a 55+ option. If you already train consistently, Adult Strength & Conditioning. If you compete in a sport, Athletic Performance. Your Fundamentals results confirm the right fit.

What's the difference between small group and 1:1?

Both follow a program written for you. Small group is up to 4 people per coach (usually 2–3), at 6, 7, 8, or 9 AM on weekdays. 1:1 is fully private and scheduled around you, including Saturdays. Both are 50-minute sessions.

What happens after the first 12 weeks of small group?

You retest, review your progress with your coach, and continue month-to-month.

What is the force plate test?

You jump on a pair of plates that measure the force you produce and how evenly you produce it on each side. It shows power and left-right imbalances that are hard to see by eye.

Do you train kids and teens?

Yes, through CRFTD Hoops, our basketball player development program for middle school through pro players. Learn more at crftdhoops.com.

How much does it cost?

CRFTD Fundamentals, where everyone starts, is $399. Program pricing depends on your level and how often you train, and we'll walk you through options on your free intro call.
