PowerAthlete

Fantastic experience: Both of my sons workout there. They absolutely love the staff, the equipment and the whole program. And they are making tremendous gains as well. Very motivating atmosphere!

Fantastic experience: Both our kids work out here and love it! Our daughter is a swimmer and she has seen tremendous gains in the pool with the added benefit of her strength training. Our son plays basketball and has not only benefited from the strength training, but also from the agility training with their Quick Kids program. It has been awesome to see them both not only develop physically, but to also excel in their overall confidence! Paul and MiIissa aren't just great trainers, they really care about the kids and are vested in their success. We were so impressed with the work they were doing with our kids that my husband and I became clients too!

Fantastic experience: Less than 2 years ago I was massively over weight, had high blood pressure, developed type 2 diabetes, and could barely exercise for more than a few minutes. My kids had just moved from another trainer over to Power Enterprises, so I thought I would give it a try. There are no words that can express my true gratitude to Paul Manfre and Brad Mays. They developed a training and diet program to help me move through the phases of weight loss, strength, speed, and endurance building. At 41, I am now in the best shape I have been in since leaving the military and off all of my medication. I am faster, stronger, and healthier than people over half my age, all of this is due to the guidance provided at Power Enterprises. I have been to other trainers in the Dayton area, whether is be at a local gym or a dedicated training establishment, and nothing comes even close to Power Enterprises. This is not just lifting or running, it is true conditioning and development for the entire body and mind. If you or any member of your family truly want to achieve and exceed your body's potential there is no place better than Power Enterprises. Thank you Paul and Brad for everything you do!!

Fantastic experience: My son has been working out at Power Enterprises for 4 years. Paul Manfre is not only knowledgeable but continues to evolve with the constantly changing needs of the athletes he trains. While many of the athletes at Power Enterprises train the same way, Paul's knowledge of each them is very individual and he truly helps bring out the most in each and every one of them. Paul has taken my son from a good freshman athlete to very accomplished senior who has excelled at 3 sports and is now playing football in college. Power Enterprises has very clearly prepared him for college play and it is the first place he wants to go when he is on break. I cannot give enough praise to the job Paul Manfre and Power Enterprises have done!

Fantastic experience: helped my athletic performance a lot in just a few weeks

Fantastic experience: Great facility with great results. My daughter is pushed hard to her limits and achieves great results.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Power Athlete is a Top-Notch, First-Class, Results-Driven facility with an incredible staff.

Positive experience: Excellent gym! This place will push your young athletes beyond what they think is possible. My 14 year old girls have a love/hate relationship with this place. They hate going, but ask to sign up year after year. I can see the difference on the field, both in speed and strength, but also in confidence.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding gym! A+ personal training. Love this place....

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Power Enterprises for years! Paul trained me through NPC competitions, life after competing and now he continues to help me stay on a healthy track through my first pregnancy! Even after moving out of state he is the only trainer I trust with my fitness goals. Paul is without a doubt one of the MOST knowledgeable trainers in the industry and I can’t thank him enough for all of the education he’s provided me along the way!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough positive things about Power Athlete. They have helped me incorporate exercise into my daily life, which has improved my physical and mental health significantly. I was also able to bounce back from knee and shoulder surgery, as well as a back injury, far faster than I would have on my own. Paul and his team really know what they are doing and are equipped to help you improve your fitness level. If you’re looking for personalized help to better yourself, then check this place out. You won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: PowerAthlete has been working with my son after an injury to help him get back up to 100%. The team at PowerAthlete team has been great from the very beginning from when the injury occurred all the way through rehab and post rehab. He has progressed well thanks to the attention and support we received from the PowerAthlete team. I would recommend the team at PowerAthlete for student athlete rehab!

Fantastic experience: Best place to train in Dayton. As a long time rugby player finding this gym helped me improve greatly. If you are an athlete or just looking for a good workout this is the place to go. I can't say enough about Paul and his staff, he really puts in the time to make sure everyone who trains there gets personalized attention and tailors programs to their needs. Give it a try.

Fantastic experience: I have been at PowerAthlete for eight years and ever since I started I can’t imagine being anywhere else. I have been pushed past my limits and each day I leave knowing I bettered myself in some way. The people in the gym wether it be the staff or the gym attendees are all friendly. The owner is great at motivation and pushing people to be their best.

Fantastic experience: Power Athlete receives my highest recommendation. I have had two children train at Power Athlete, and have witnessed their transformation into stronger, faster, more confident athletes. More importantly, they have established habits that will hopefully last for a lifetime. While my eldest son is not a college athlete, he continues his workout and diet routine every day. His college friends are amazed at the technique and discipline he has learned at P.A. My youngest son, a bit undersized compared to his peers, has improved his strength, speed, agility and confidence as a result of working with Paul and his staff. I have yet to come across a parent or athlete that didn’t believe Power Athlete played a significant role in improving their overall performance and competitiveness on the playing field - all while teaching them the RIGHT way to do things.

Fantastic experience: The attention and training by the staff at PowerAthlete is second to none. I utilized the gym for adult training while on active duty and after knee surgery. Even after my service, I continued to use the gym to maintain my fitness and energy level. My daughter has gone through both the Next Gen and Athlete programs and the results are great.

Fantastic experience: When I moved here 2 years ago I tried searching for a CrossFit gym near my house in Centerville. I was pleasantly surprised to find Power Athlete instead. While I enjoy CrossFit gym workouts the HIIT workouts at Power Athlete are fantastic. Paul designs a workout for every day of the year and obviously spends time doing it. Both he and Jessica are always there to assist with a modification or to explain a move.

Fantastic experience: Great place to get customized, challenging personal training! Whether you're a student playing a sport or a person that has specific goals looking to get in shape, this is a great place to go.

Fantastic experience: Been going to power athlete for a little more than 4 years and It has helped me perform on another level on the field. Also the environment makes it like a second home to me.

Fantastic experience: I love training at Power Athlete. Paul is the best he knows everything there is to know!

Fantastic experience: Power Athlete is a top level training facility. Paul and his staff are knowledgeable and cater to all different types of athletes/sports. My son has loved it and enjoys attending Power Athlete!

Fantastic experience: My kids Love the NextGen program for young athletes. The workouts they enjoy at Power Athlete have helped them tremendously with the sports they play.

Fantastic experience: I have been working out in gyms for the past 35 years. I can say without a doubt that the Adult Training regimen at Power Athlete is the best all-around program I have ever experienced. The combination of stretching, agility exercises, cardio and resistance training employed in these innovative, supervised sessions is unmatched, and the environment is safe, energetic and fun. At 53 years old I feel the best I have since being in my 30’s. Any adult concerned about optimizing their overall health and fitness should incorporate the Adult Training program into their life plan.

Fantastic experience: I’m so grateful for my morning workout crew! Power Athlete is the first gym I’ve ever been able to commit to and I attribute that to the sense of community you feel when you walk through the door. Thank you to Paul and his staff for the time you invest in the health of others!

Fantastic experience: I have been sending my 12 and 14 year old boys to Power Athletes for 6 months and they have become stronger and more skilled in their sports. This is a great way to stay in shape through the year and they do an amazing job with teens!!

Fantastic experience: Two of my daughters have attended sessions with Jess. They love her positive attitude and she makes the hard work fun! Their coaches have already noticed a difference in their speed and strength.

Fantastic experience: I love PowerAthlete! Paul’s workouts are uniquely designed for each athlete and body type. Each exercise specifically relates to what I need personally to become a more fit athlete/person. I love his addition of the MyZone heart rate system as it keeps me accountable and I can push myself to be the very best I can be. Paul is there to offer one on one guidance and positively pushes me so I get the most out of each workout. I have seen great transformations in my body since I’ve been going there. Great atmosphere, great people....can’t recommend his place enough if you are a serious athlete looking for results!

Fantastic experience: I love this place, great training for all ages. The workouts vary day by day and are ever changing. More importantly are the people who run the show and the people who work out there. That, for me, is what makes it fun. I’ve been other places but this one is unique. Can’t recommend it more highly.

Fantastic experience: My 13-year old daughter trains here and loves it! She always comes home saying it was the best workout ever!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! I've never had a better workout anywhere. The atmosphere is old-school gym, with great music, camaraderie, and different work-outs everyday (and I've been working out there for seven years!) What I love is that I can come in anytime they're open, and my workout is waiting for me. I work at my own pace, and no one hovers over me, but the trainers are right there if you need them. The gym is owned by a local couple, Paul and Milissa Manfre, who share a passion for fitness, health, and injury-free athletic excellence. I am thrilled that even though I'm not a "spring chicken" anymore, I still water ski, snow ski, bike and hike thanks to Power Enterprises!

Fantastic experience: Large facility with plenty of equipment and friendly people. Positive atmosphere that is focused on making the best you possible. Only downside is that they frown on men wearing yoga leggings. All kinds of gorgeous women in skin tight leggings and sports bras but dudes practically have to wear a snowsuit. It helps sweat off those last few extra lbs I guess. To recap: Excellent facility. Great programming. Men can’t wear comfortable and revealing athletic apparel.

Fantastic experience: The staff at Power Athlete is amazing and treat you like family. Paul Manfres attention to your physical and mental needs as well as his eagerness to learn new “practices” and exercises is what has brought me and my daughter back year after year.

Fantastic experience: Awesome trainers, great facility. My teen athlete loves the classes and instructors.

Fantastic experience: My daughter is a high school athlete soon to be a college athlete. When she visited her college and watched the team’s workout program, she noticed she is already doing the exact same things at Power Athlete. She feels 100% ready to become a D1 college soccer player.

Fantastic experience: Both our kids train with Power Athlete and the impact is amazing! Our basketball player has seen an increases in his overall strength, speed and agility, and we appreciate the additional focus on the importance of stretching for performance and injury prevention. Our swimmer trained with Power through middle/high school before being recruited by UK. They helped her to become a better athlete both physically AND mentally. And thanks to her training, she made it through high school without missing a practice or meet due to injury!

Fantastic experience: My high school daughter is a regular at Power Athlete. She has made great strides in strength, performance and confidence since starting Power Athlete's program over a year ago. I recommend anyone seeking to improve their child's confidence and performance visit Power Athlete.

Fantastic experience: I'm comfortable training here as an older adult. The programs are well designed and the personnel are always available to answer questions, demonstrate exercises and they offer feedback to make sure that I'm doing the exercises safely and correctly. There is NO PRESSURE to Impress anyone! It is all about each individual becoming the best they can be. My fitness goal was to be able to help a friend move, and not be relegated to handling picture frames and flower arrangements within the first half hour. I'm happy to say that I've met and far exceeded that goal!

Fantastic experience: My son has been taking the speed and agility class. The instructor is great. She makes it fun and this class has improved his performance in the sports he plays.

Fantastic experience: Been using Power Enterprises for many years, with fantastic results! They’re able to meet the needs of athletes of all ages - I’ve been impressed time and time again watching so many achieve success!

Fantastic experience: I have gone to Power Enterprises for the past 10 years and it has been a great experience. At Power Enterprises, you will see results and appreciate all the hard work that you put into it. All the staff members want you to succeed in your own personal goals, whether it’s for a sport or for your own personal health and wellness.

Fantastic experience: Power Athlete provides the facility, the competitive atmosphere, the experience and knowledge, and the programming to keeps me in the best shape of my life at the age of 46. It is a total body workout with the long-term fitness and health in mind. All I have to do is bring the right attitude and the rest takes care of itself.

Fantastic experience: My son just completed the medical bridge program at Power Enterprises/PowerAthlete and we were very impressed with how much he has improved in the short amount of time (10 sessions) working with David. He pushed him to not only recover physically, but mentally as well. He just started the Next Gen strength & agility classes with Jessica and says it’s hard work but very fun.

Fantastic experience: Paul and his team are first class in personal training! We have had two experiences with Power Athlete and are very pleased with the results. Highly recommend them for your training needs!

Fantastic experience: Paul and his staff do a great job with keeping you moving and focused. Fun place to go and get a good workout in at your own pace!

Fantastic experience: We have had 4 children train, use injury prevention programs, and injury recovery programs at Power Athlete. All 4 have had outstanding experiences at Power Athlete. The staff is excellent at targeting specific areas as well as improving overall strength for their sports.

Fantastic experience: When moving to Dayton, I struggled with finding the right gym for me. They were either too trendy of group workout classes with little guidance, or they were purely self-created workout plans and they just provided the equipment. And it turns out that when I rely on myself to provide the workout plan, I don't exactly push myself. I wanted a gym that brought everything together... group workout for that "team" mentality, a workout plan provided, and a trainer near to push me, make sure I was doing it correctly, and to help modify as needed. Power Athlete is the only place out of the five gyms I have tried that brings it all together. I love being held accountable by the regulars of my workout time and also how we encourage (and sometimes compete) with one another through the MyZone app. I am getting more out of my workouts because of the daily change in workout plans provided. Last but not least, the trainers are critical in ensuring that I am pushing myself (even if I roll my eyes when told to go up in weights) and doing things correctly to prevent injuries. You won't get that at many other gyms.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! Everyday you walk in and an individualized workout plan is made for you. I started going to Power Enterprises in the summer when I was training to stay in shape to play volleyball in college. Now, as an adult, I still attend. The workouts are tailored to meet your needs no matter how old or young you are!

Fantastic experience: Power athlete has done a wonderful job of helping my son become an elite soccer player. He’s much faster and stronger because of them. I would highly recommend Powerathlete to anyone looking to go to the next level in sports!

Fantastic experience: This place is great!!! They have such a great attitude and are always pushing you to do more. They always care about you and ask how you have been. This is such a good place and you come out with so many positives in your life. You need to go there and workout. Paul and staff are the best!!

Fantastic experience: I hardly ever rate anything with the highest rating, but because of the programming and the community of other Power Athletes (young and old )that workout with me this deserves all the stars. I have not only gotten “in shape”, I’ve gotten significantly stronger. I have even utilized Paul as my source for rehab after several knee surgeries and was able to continue workouts with modifications throughout those times. I cannot stress enough what a sense of community and accountability my Fellow Power Athletes and Power Athlete trainers give to me. Without them I would not be where I am in my ongoing fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: My son started with PowerAthlete as part of the Bridge program through Beacon. He saw so much success with that program that after he was cleared from his injury he has continued with PowerAthlete . The staff is very knowledgeable and supportive.
