Fusion Performance Training Philosophy

General to Specific

In preparation for your goal, whether it is weight-loss, increasing lean muscular mass, or physical preparation (performance training) for a sport, you must have a strong foundation. We at Fusion Performance Training structure your comprehensive program using the “General to Specific” approach.

During the General Foundational Phase (Accumulation)

we focus on:

Correct movement patterns (Technique)
Increasing your overall work capacity (Energy system training)
Strengthening your deficiencies (Muscular or movement related)
A progressive diet program that is based on your lifestyle

During the Transitional Phase (Intensification):

Exercise selections progress into the more “advanced” section
Intensity of the specific movements chosen increases
Goal-specific exercises begin to increase, as general specific movements are weeded out but used for injury prevention
Diet program begins to tighten up

During the Competition Phase (Realization), it all comes together:

Goal specific movements have increased in intensity
General movements are taken out and we fully focus on goal-specific movements
Diet is dead-on for your specific goal to help maximize all gains
All the hard work shows here. Your gains from the past phases will come to life!

The total time spent on each phase will depend on your time frame, fitness level, and sport season. Fusion personal trainers and performance coaches will specifically tailor the program to your needs, physical capabilities, and lifestyle. As you progress, your foundation will get stronger, which will allow you to successfully complete your goals. Without a strong foundation, structured tailored program, and quality coaching, you can make the wrong choices for your diet and/or potentially injure yourself.

This is why it is so imperative to have a highly qualified performance coach and personal trainer. Whether you are looking for in-home training, sports performance training, or other fitness needs, Fusion Trainers and Coaches are dedicated to helping you obtain your goals.

“Don’t build your foundation on sand, build it with concrete”

"In 7 weeks, my over all strength and power has increased significantly! My broad jump increased 5", bench press 15lbs, squat 40lbs, power clean 15kilos, but most of all my times on my conditioning and speed tests DRAMATICALLY dropped! Fusion's programs were very well thought out and adjusted depending on how the guys were doing. If you want results, go to Fusion!"

They're lots of trainers and programs out there offering sports performance training, many of which are misleading, questionable, and unscientific. If you're looking to cut through all the "BS" and find something that will really work for you. I would thoroughly recommend Chris Matsui to anyone. From beginning to advanced athletes, Chris' coaching will provide you with the guidance to get the results you want without all the gimmicks."

"If you're looking for professional, reliable trainers, Fusion is the way to go. They don't just randomly do a workout, they really focus on what you want and need. I was a little hesitant at first of hiring a trainer at first but Chris had a keen sense of the level of intensity I needed and wanted to be at, and it was just right! I couldn't say enough good things about Fusion."

"Fusion made weight-loss a lifestyle change that is simple and easy to do. They really focused on a step-by-step approach that fits my schedule and routine. I've been so happy working with Fusion trainers and my results!"

"In a field that has many but few quality Coaches, I'm grateful to have met Coach Chris. He is extremely detailed and focused on developing the team based on quality movements, building a strong base, and keeping a supportive and competitive team atmosphere. With great Coaching and leadership, Team Fusion Weightlifting is developing into a powerful name and I'm proud to be the captain of the team."

Alex G.
Captain of Fusion Weightlifting Tea

"Being 68 years young and having gone through multiple knee and hip surgeries, I knew that staying active was going to be key for me. Chris had recommended me to try the Fusion Regeneration Process, and WOW! This was unlike any other warm up or stretching routine, I've been through. The only word I can think of is 'released', my hips, back, legs, everything just felt 'released'. "

"As a marketing executive in New York city, my work schedule demands a lot of my time so when searching for a trainer they had to not only be good but he flexible. Chris at Fusion Performance Training is just that. Not only do I feel and look better than ever before, my work was not compromised."

Jake

“Who would of thought that you could make such a big impact, so far away? Fusion’s online workout program pushed me to the next level; they were spot with everything from catering the diet, workout, and active rest for me. I tore both my ACL’s and after working with Fusion I feel like I can play basketball again! I can’t wait to get back to NYC and train with the Fusion!”
