PERFORMANCE
TRAINING IN ATLANTA
Glenn Byrd's Fast-Twitch Method is Atlanta's premier athletic performance program. Built for athletes who demand more — more speed, more explosiveness, more dominance on the field, court, or track. Training at The Forum Athletic Club, Ponce City Market.
The Method
THE FAST-TWITCH
METHOD.
Fast-twitch muscle fibers are the engine behind every explosive movement in sport — the first step off the line, the vertical leap, the acceleration burst. Most training programs ignore them entirely. Glenn Byrd built his Fast-Twitch Method specifically to develop them, because the athlete who can produce force faster wins.
The method combines plyometric training, complex contrast work (pairing heavy strength movements with explosive power exercises), and sport-specific conditioning drills. The result is an athlete who is not just stronger — but faster, more reactive, and harder to beat in every measurable athletic metric.
As the creator and lead instructor of Fast-Twitch classes at The Forum Athletic Club, Glenn has refined this methodology through thousands of sessions with athletes across disciplines — from weekend warriors to competitive professionals. The program adapts to your sport and your position, not the other way around.
Plyometric Power Development
Box jumps, depth drops, bounding, and reactive drills that directly train your nervous system to produce force faster.
Complex Contrast Training
Pairing heavy compound lifts with explosive power exercises creates a post-activation potentiation effect — your muscles fire harder, faster.
Reactive Agility Drills
Change-of-direction speed, deceleration mechanics, and reactive decision-making drills that mirror the unpredictability of real competition.
Sport-Specific Conditioning
Energy system training tailored to the demands of your sport — whether it's repeated sprints, sustained intensity, or explosive burst intervals.

The Three Pillars
SPEED. POWER. DOMINANCE.
01 — Speed
First-Step Quickness
Speed is not just about top-end velocity — it's about getting there first. Glenn trains acceleration mechanics, stride frequency, and start position so your first step is always your fastest.
02 — Power
Explosive Force Production
Vertical leap, rotational power, push-off strength — Glenn trains every expression of athletic power so that when the moment demands maximum output, you deliver it.
03 — Agility
Reactive Change of Direction
Elite athletes don't just move fast in straight lines. Glenn develops your ability to decelerate, redirect, and re-accelerate with precision — the skill that separates good athletes from great ones.
