“I’ve been sending my son to Clay for about a year and half now. From my experience in the sports world I do not think there is a better place you could send a youth athlete. I have seen a dramatic increase in functional movement, speed and strength. This is not only my son but many other kids I’ve watched him train. I think we are extremely lucky to have someone with his experience and capabilities in College Station.”
Michael Earley - Head Coach Texas A&M
“As an athletic trainer, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside Coach Tillman for over 2 years and have seen first hand the impact he has on athletes both on and off the field. His background in strength and conditioning is second to none—every program he designs is backed by research and the unique demands of each sport. Whether its training high school athletes or professional athletes, Coach Tillman delivers results. “
Lance Perkins - Head Baseball Athletic Trainer University Houston
"Over one off-season training with Clay at Tillman Sports Performance, my average velocity jumped from 93 to 96 MPH consistently. I’ve never felt stronger, more explosive, or more mobile. I also gained 15 pounds, going from 215 to 230. Clay’s baseball background, deep understanding of strength and conditioning, and attention to detail made all the difference. If you’re a baseball player or athlete looking to take your game to the next level, I highly recommend Tillman Sports Performance."

"After 12 off-seasons, including eight at the Major League level, I can confidently say this is the most effective training I’ve ever experienced. I’ve never been this strong, fast, or explosive in my life.
With nearly 7 years in the MLB, I wouldn’t invest my time here if it didn’t deliver real results. If you’re serious about building strength, speed, and power, Tillman Sports Performance is the place to be.”
-Tyler Naquin
"I’ve known Clay for a long time, and I can confidently say you are in great hands when it comes to training. If you’re a high school athlete in College Station, there’s no one better.
I’ve had the pleasure of spending two off-seasons at Tillman Sports Performance, and the coaching and environment are truly second to none."
