Prime Athletic Development - Bayonne, New Jersey

I highly recommend Prime Athletic Development for any youth athlete looking to develop their speed and explosiveness. I've personally experienced continuous growth and overall significant transformation from when I first started training with Prime. Mark Johnson has a truly special combination of experience, credibility, professionalism, personality, and character. The program covers major aspects of speed such as strength & proper form, targets specific body parts, and is structured with foundational/dynamic/intensification phases all within the context of personalization for the needs of the individual athlete. The facility is fully-equipped and the exercises and drills are varied and unique. Sessions are appropriately challenging, efficient, effective, safe, motivational, and fun. Anyone training with Prime will have an edge over the competition.

I have been bringing my kids to train with Coach Mark for several years now and I have been extremely impressed with his professionalism and knowledge about training. Not only does he create a welcoming environment, but he is also very encouraging and pushes my kids to give it their all.

Coach Mark's training sessions have greatly improved my kids' fundamentals and ability on the playing field. I have seen a significant improvement in their skills and overall performance since they started training with him. He is able to identify their strengths and weaknesses and tailor the training sessions accordingly.

What I appreciate most about Coach Mark is his ability to motivate and inspire my kids. He instills a sense of confidence in them and encourages them to push themselves beyond their limits. He not only focuses on physical training but also emphasizes the importance of mental toughness and discipline.

I highly recommend Coach Mark to anyone looking for a professional and knowledgeable coach for their kids. He creates a positive and supportive environment for them to learn and grow, both as athletes and individuals. My kids always look forward to their training sessions with him and I am confident that they will continue to improve under his guidance. Thank you, Coach Mark, for your dedication and passion for training young athletes.

My kids have been going to Prime for a number of years and I am thankful to have something so beneficial in Bayonne for them.

Each one of the Prime coaches possess a true passion for what they do and it is evident in each of their sessions. The coaches have worked with my kids to tailor their fitness instruction to their needs and abilities constantly driving them to not only push themselves further but to create a positive mindset and build their confidence. While training the coaches are meticulous in ensuring that the form and skills are understood and executed properly.

Prime AD truly cares about the development of the athletes they work with. If you are looking for dedicated professional coaches who are highly skilled and passionate then you will find it in Prime.

As a former coach, I understand the value of finding the right program to nurture young athletes. At Prime Athletic Development, led by the incredible Mark Johnson, I found more than just athletic training; I found a community dedicated to fostering well-rounded individuals.

What truly sets Prime Athletic Development apart is the genuine care and dedication invested in each member. Mark and his team aren't just instructors; they're mentors who understand the power of sports to shape young minds and bodies. Their strength and conditioning program goes beyond physical prowess, building confidence, discipline, and healthy habits that last a lifetime.

This is evident in the positive team spirit that permeates the program. Group training fosters camaraderie and collaboration, teaching valuable lessons about teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship. Witnessing young athletes support and push each other to excel is truly inspiring.

Mark's leadership shines through his commitment to the Bayonne community.

I wholeheartedly recommend Prime Athletic Development to any parent seeking a transformative athletic experience for their child. Under Mark's guidance, young athletes gain not just physical strength, but also the mental fortitude and teamwork skills that will benefit them throughout their lives. It's more than just training; it's building champions on and off the field.

Coach Mark Johnson has been training the players in our baseball program for the past 3 and half years. His knowledge, energy and dedication have been vital to the overall success that we’ve had on the field. The outstanding program and training methods make Prime AD the PREMIER Trainer in the North Jersey area. They often say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so what you get here is authenticity at its finest! Coach Johnson has cultivated a tremendous relationship with our players and coaches by displaying exemplary actions that are not only seen, but also felt while training. He’s also a very respected member of our community by serving as a Police Officer as well. I’m grateful to have him involved with our program and proud of everything he’s accomplished thus far and can’t wait to see what the future holds as he embarks in this endeavor as a business owner.

We have three children, our two sons workout with Prime athletic development as part of the Bayonne High School athletic program and we could not be happier with their progress and strength development. Our daughter Emily sustained a ruptured ACL with a torn meniscus during a basketball game. Mark Johnson with Prime Athletic development worked with her prior to surgery to get the surrounding muscles stronger prior to surgery. Just two short weeks after surgery Emily was back at it working out with Prime. Still on crutches Mark tailored the workouts to focus on upper body and core. Mark Johnson also worked in conjunction with our physical therapist (Ivy physical therapy of Bayonne) to ensure there wasn’t any competing or overlapping exercises. He also worked around her PT sessions so there wasn’t any conflicts. Now that we are 30 weeks post surgery, Mark contacted a peer who specializes in ACL/MCL injuries for input on agility exercises that our daughter can handle at this stage in recovery. Many people are amazed at the progress in our daughter’s recovery and I can attribute a great part of her recovery is from the experience and dedication of Mark Johnson and Prime Athletic Development. I highly recommend them to not only advance your child’s athletic strength and agility but also injury recovery and prevention.
Thank you
