What People Are Saying

“I can't recommend Coach Jon Sax at STS Performance highly enough. He doesn't just train clients; he builds relationships based on trust, motivation, and genuine care.”

— Dave J.

“Sax brings a strong combination of technical and emotional expertise to his practice. Technically, Sax understands the finer details of the Snatch and Clean and Jerk and has taken a beginner (at best) to an individual who feels proficient with the barbell. Emotionally, he is receptive to feedback, thoughtful in his approach and passionate with his work.”

— Cory S.

“I had the privilege of working with Jon while he was a collegiate athlete, coach, and strength and conditioning coach. His passion for teaching and his athletes' overall health and well-being is immediately evident. Coach Sax first sets the example through his professionalism, hard work, and discipline and then ensures that his clients grow as athletes and people. His process is result-driven while never neglecting the importance of developing relationships. His enthusiasm is infectious, and even on days when you feel everything is stacked against you, Coach Sax will make sure you leave the platforms reinvigorated, stronger, and more confident.”

— Jake MacDonald USMC (Ret.), Purple Heart Recipient, Lead instructor for The Program.
