“In a day and age when you read, daily, about players taking ‘shortcuts’ and trying to find the quickest way to ‘get good,’ if you understand anything about the human body and professional sports you know neither of those applies. Eric Cressey is as cutting edge as anyone out there when it comes to throwing a baseball. His insight into not only the bio-mechanics of the action, but in understanding that the kinetic chain is about engaging the entire body and his position specific workouts are far ahead of their time. He also has great insight into the lives we live as professionals and knows that while nutrition is the foundation of any good athlete, there are ways to be healthy, and stay healthy. No matter if you’re traveling from Motel 6 to Motel 6 in the NY Penn League, or on charter flights around the AL East, this guy is as good as they come.”
“In addition to being one of the smartest minds on the planet he’s as good a person as he is a trainer, if not better. I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly than Eric if you are truly serious about tapping into potential you never knew you had, or pushing yourself to places you never knew you could go.”
Curt Schilling
Member of the 2001, 2004 and 2007 World Champion Diamondbacks and Red Sox
“Working with Eric and Cressey Performance has been a great step forward for me and I continue to drive an hour each way to work with him. He’s gotten me stronger and better prepared to handle the training load my coach, Karen Smyers, doles out and best of all, he works with Karen to help make me better. Most importantly, I am seeing improvements on the bike and run.”
Dede Griesbauer 2009 Ironman Brazil Champion
“What sets Cressey Performance apart from the rest is the time and effort they put into building a relationship with me both inside and outside of their training facility. Where else am I going to find a strength coach willing to run stadiums with me on his day off? The CP staff genuinely cares about me and my career and that went a long way towards gaining my trust as a professional boxer.”
Danny O’Connor

Light Welterweight Professional Boxer
“I flew from Seattle to Boston just to meet and train with Eric Cressey and didn’t think twice about it. It was the smartest move I’ve made in my entire athletic career. Eric takes physical training to an academic level, and is the most knowledgeable, well-researched and up-to-date coach with whom I’ve ever worked. I have always been plagued by injuries and stumped as to why I could never take my training to the next level. It only took Eric a 10-minute analysis to figure out what injuries and training pitfalls to which I’m prone, and now I have training programs catered to overcoming those deficiencies. Cressey Performance has taken me from being a nationally competitive athlete to an internationally competitive athlete. The attitude, atmosphere, and intensity at CP can’t be beat.”
Bree Schaaf
USA Bobsled and 2010 Winter Olympian
“I first came to Cressey Performance suffering numerous complications that followed a major shoulder surgery. From day-one I knew I had come to the right place not only for my shoulder but to become a fitter athlete all around. While training at CP, I have been able to vastly surpass the shortcomings of my surgery as well as correct the many other problems that plagued me over the years due to poor technique in training. I am without a doubt in the best shape of my life and continue to make progress with every session. The environment at CP is simply unparalleled in its level of expertise, passion, and care for clients. Whether it is accompanying me to a shoulder appointment or working with my team trainers, Eric continues to go the extra mile to make me a more successful athlete. Eric and the rest of the CP team have been absolutely crucial in my jump to playing at the international level.”
