Structured speed and strength development for middle and high school athletes serving Damascus and surrounding areas.
SERVING DAMASCUS · CLACKAMAS COUNTY
For Damascus families searching for youth strength training, the goal is simple: steady, visible progress your athlete can carry onto the field or court.
Damascus sits in the quieter, more rural pocket of the county near Boring, and young athletes from the area head to schools like Damascus Christian High School, Sam Barlow High School, and Adrienne C. Nelson High School. That tight-knit, family-oriented setting is exactly the kind of athlete we love to coach — kids who want a program that grows with them over the years. At Take5 we split development into Youth Foundations for ages 8–11 and Athlete Performance for ages 12–18, so every athlete from 8 to 18 is coached for their stage instead of lumped into one generic class.
Getting here is easy too: the drive from Damascus to our Damascus facility runs only about ten minutes, so training two to four times a week never has to swallow a whole evening. The payoff is a coach-led program focused on what genuinely develops young athletes — not just keeping them busy.
At Take5 Athletics, we train athletes with a system built around speed, strength, and movement quality - so they gain confidence, reduce injury risk, and perform at a higher level.
Included with every youth program
Every athlete is set up in the Take5 Athletics app on day one. Their program, their roadmap, their numbers — so the work carries on between sessions and you can both see exactly how far they have come.
Seven stages, from baseline assessment through force production. Your athlete always knows where they are and what unlocks next.
Today's session and the full week's schedule on the home screen — plus recovery, hydration and fuel at a glance.
A full exercise library filtered by muscle or equipment, each with a video demo — so form is never guesswork when we are not in the room.
Calorie, protein, carb and fat targets with water tracking. Log a meal by search, barcode, label or photo.
Journaling, guided breathing, mindfulness and pre-game routines — the part of sport most young athletes are never taught.
Personal records and session history in one place, with benchmark re-tests every six weeks. Real numbers, not a feeling.
Free with every youth program — set up at the free evaluation, no extra cost, ever.

Our Youth Performance program is built for athletes ages 8–18, including middle school and high school athletes across all sports.
A typical schedule is 2–4 days per week, and we land on the right number based on your athlete's age, sport season, and experience. We confirm it together at the evaluation.
Nothing is guesswork - we log sprint times, jump numbers, movement quality, and key strength markers, then re-test roughly every 6 weeks so families can see the gains on paper.
