Meet the Trainer: Steve Hess

My name is Steve Hess. and I was the first full time strength and conditioning coach for the Denver Nuggets. I am now an assistant coach blessed enough to have been in Denver for 12 years, training some of the best athletes in the NBA.

I been featured in magazines and TV but my greatest achievement is the honor to share my knowledge with any athlete trying to attain their goals for sports and for life. Under Armour has the vision to allow competent performance specialists like myself to help every athlete on the planet get better. They have created a training dream team where we all have specialties to create a top-tier knowledge base and I am proud to represent basketball on the Under Armour TNP Training Council.

Together we are creating The New Prototype for performance training. Under Armour and the Training Council are about to revolutionize how athletes train!

My programs incorporate many concepts with one idea in mind: the need to make an athlete better on the basketball court.  Basketball is a running and jumping sport where the first three steps, changes in pace and overall cardiovascular levels have to be high. I will always be adaptive and creative because as training evolves so do I.

There are tools in basketball that make you better. To be strong you have to get strong, to be fast you have to get fast, to be explosive you have to get explosive and the list goes on. We will break it down to your sport, your position, and through training and nutrition you will attain your goals.
I look forward to helping you get better everyday!

THE FUTURE IS OURS!

Steve
