THE TEAM
OWNER
Jamin Frank
Coach Jamin has been in the industry for over 7 years and has worked with hundreds of clients and athletes throughout the Valley during that time. He was named Best Personal Trainer in Yakima in both 2017 and 2018 and was named Training Director at the Yakima Athletic Club in 2019.
In early 2020 he left the YAC and Yakima Sports Performance was born. When he’s not busy coaching he spends his time with his family and being a Dad! You might also find him on a basketball court or football field on the weekends. Growing up I was a bigger kid. I remember stepping on the scale at 11 or 12 and reading 199. I was shaking and ashamed of myself. I wanted to change that, I was determined to not let that scale read 200. Being that I was only 12 I had no idea what working out was or good nutrition looked like. But that didn’t stop me! I cut out soda and started doing pushups and sit-ups in my dad’s Office. And things started to change. My clothes started fitting better, I could move my body so much easier, I could keep up with my friends when we were racing or playing sports. My life changed. I truly believe this is what set me on this course of being a coach. To help others guide them to where they want to be. Motivation & Passion My passion for coaching comes from wanting to be the coach I would have wanted when I was in school. Someone that can see the potential In me as an athlete and that can help guide me to the next level. My hope is that every athlete that walks through these doors, no matter where they are in their journey, is that I can help get them to where they want to be. And will work tirelessly to get them there.
COACH
Lindsey Mccabe
I am a personal trainer/nutrition coach with a passion for helping women of all ages and fitness levels discover their untapped inner and out strength. Strength training builds strength, confidence, and character and it's my mission to help as many women fall in love with it just as I have.
I am also a wife and Mom to three kids, being strong helps me keep up with them. I love lifting, cooking, reading, and just about anything that takes me outdoors when it is warm out. Growing up I did swim team but I really didn’t discover my passion for fitness until my twenties. I started with endurance running and triathlons and later discovered my love for weight lifting. Once I had my first barbell work training session with my coach, I was hooked! Turning Point A big turning point in my life in regard to my health and fitness journey was discovering weight lifting. I, like many young women, grew up learning to always want to be a smaller version of myself and was exposed to many fad diets in my home. I decided in my late twenties that I had had enough of that and reached out to a coach to start strength training. This was the first season in my life where I discovered having other goals than just losing weight. I quickly realized that having strength and performance goals is where it’s at. I realized that as I focused on building a lifestyle that helped me reach those strength goals, my physique was naturally changing to reflect that hard work. I developed a healthy relationship with food for the first time in my life. In 2019 I broke my patella in a spartan race and was devastated at first thinking that I would never be able to do the thing I did pre-injury. After a couple of days of being sad, I resolved to do the rehab work and do everything I could to regain my strength and confidence in the gym. After 1 year I was reaching new squat and deadlift PRs and the recovery process led me to get certified as a personal trainer. I wanted to help other people who struggle with finding their confidence in the gym after a traumatic injury. Motivation & Passion I am passionate about training women of all ages. I want to help as many as possible tap into the strong potential that I know is in every woman.
COACH
Lawrence Fiander
I've been an athlete all of my life. My sport is basketball. I went to White Swan High School where I still hold the scoring record of 1,627 points. I was at number 7 all-time all valley at the time of the record. I then attended YVCC.
Once my collegiate career was over, I needed to find a new hobby so I could stay healthy as basketball was the majority of my fitness health prior. That is when I found the love of weightlifting and haven’t looked back since. Motivation & Passion My purpose for coaching is to introduce people to the fitness lifestyle. My end goal is that my clients will carry their journey on after me. I want to show them what they are capable of. I want them to have that same excitement I had once I found out what I was capable of. Also, I want to help youth in the weight room and show them how important it is for their sports. I wasn’t fortunate enough to have a mentor in the weight room so I want to be that guy for a lot of the youth. I can help with any sport, but my expertise is basketball as I have the knowledge of what should be worked on at a higher level.
