About · Coach Jimbo Pernetti
MEASURED.
NOT GUESSED.
Pernetti SPN was built on one idea: every athlete deserves the training, nutrition, and injury prevention the pros get. For too long that access was locked behind pro budgets and pro facilities. We built a model
that puts it in reach, real programming and coaching you follow at your own gym, on your own time.

THE STORY
FROM THE WEIGHT ROOM TO THE LAB
"After finishing my master's degree, I took a job with a premier sports performance company in Texas. I spent my days around first-round NFL draft picks, MLB stars, Olympians, professional softball players, Team USA basketball members, and college athletes across nearly every sport, learning alongside some of the best performance coaches in the world.
Being in that environment taught me what elite training and nutrition actually looks like. It also made something obvious: youth athletes and everyday adults were getting nowhere near that same quality of care. That's where I started seeing the barriers holding them back:
Nutrition. Almost none of them had ever been coached on how to fuel their bodies to get the most out of their training.
Price. Not everyone can afford a pro athlete's performance bill.
Time. Not everyone can make a class at exactly 5:00pm.
Individualization. People wanted programs built around their goals and their level, not a one-size-fits-all group class.
Location. Not everyone can drive to a specific facility, or even get to a gym.
Then something happened that pushed me to act. I was at a showcase with about 250 high school juniors and seniors, talking with the national cross-checker for the Washington Nationals. He looked at the field and told me, "Out of all these kids, maybe two could play college ball, and maybe one could play for my team."
I asked why. He said, "They don't pass the eye test. Just by looking at them, I can tell they don't have the physicality to step on a college or pro field and compete."
That moment is where Pernetti SPN was born.
We give athletes the performance and nutrition tools to reach their goals and compete at higher levels. Through the SPN app, athletes get programs written by professional coaches, complete with video demonstrations and progress tracking, so they can train where they want, when they want. Alongside it, our experts guide their nutrition so they're fueling their bodies to match their goals.
Parents shouldn't have to break the bank or pull their kids out of class to get real performance training. We built this program to remove those barriers. Start now and set your athlete apart."

"Every athlete deserves the same tools the pros get. We just made them accessable."

CREDENTIALS & APPROACH
DEGREED IN THE SCIENCE
A degree in exercise physiology and a master's in biomechanics. Every program is built on how the body actually works, not trends.
PRO-LEVEL BACKGROUND
Years spent around elite athletes and some of the best performance coaches in the world, learning what real development takes.
BASEBALL SPECIALIST
Deep specialization in the demands of throwing, hitting, and rotational power.
THE FULL SYSTEM
Training, nutrition, and injury prevention in one plan. Performance is built in the gym and the kitchen.
01
ESTABLISH A BASELINE
You can't improve what you haven't measured. Every athlete starts with a real baseline, from in-person testing to a full intake of your numbers and goals.
Three principles run through everything at Pernetti SPN - from a youth athlete's first session to a pro's off-season.
TEST FIRST. THEN TRAIN.
02
BUILD THE PLAN
Data drives the program. We target the specific limiters in your numbers and the real demands of your sport.
THE PHILOSOPHY
03
RE-TEST & ADJUST
Progress is proven, not assumed. We re-measure, show the gains, and adjust the plan off fresh data.
