Testimonials
Lonnie Lykes and Ty Motley at Performance Changers have been true Mentors, Trainers, Motivators and Role Models to my daughter for a few years now. What a blessing it has been to have them both train with her, they have invested so much time to get my daughter ready for college level basketball and we are almost there!!! They have worked with her through a tough ankle injury, trained her back to full strength, which took time, dedication and patience, all of which meant so much to us both! She has grown as an athlete, leader, increased confidence and drive these past few years working with Performance Changers. We thank you for not only embracing my daughter and helping her develop into an even greater athlete, but also for encouraging her to be the best student and maintaining her grades! Words will never be enough to thank you both!!!
Lonnie Lykes and his team at Performance Changers have worked with my daughter for 4 years, and the experience has exceeded expectations every step of the way. When she was injured, Performance Changers continued workouts, but also used alternate training methods to support her healing process. This program not only focuses on the physical fitness of the athlete but the whole student athlete, including academics and moral support. I am very grateful that she has trained with Lonnie and Performance Changers. He and his team have played a huge part in her athletic success!
My experience with Performance Changers has been one of the most life changing experiences for me. Not only did it change me on the court, but also in life as well. I was able to be in the best shape I have ever been in after sitting a year, more confident in every aspect, and have been able to gain strength along w/ quickness at the same time.
his knowledge and time to help my son get ready for his upcoming football season between and around his basketball schedule. The results were amazing. His techniques and approach helped Troy to an outstanding senior season in football and basketball. Coach Lykes didn't stop there as he continued to work with him to get him ready for DII football training camp. Thank you coach for your sincere dedication to our youth.
As a parent I have been very impressed with the work that Coach Lykes has done with my son Jacob. He provides a focus for his workouts and pushes him just the right amount, always towards improvement never discouragement. Physically the work they have put in is clearly visible, but throughout it the attitude of hard work and positivist is just as clear. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to connect their child with a great trainer who can help them get to the next level.
I am truly blessed to have Performance Changers in my son's life. As a single mother it is hard to motivate my teenager to strive to be more than an athlete. Lonnie has managed to help mold him in mind and spirit. He looks forward to building his body and soul. I truly believe that without this program he would be running the streets. He would not be performing at his peak with the knowledge of body mechanics without Lonnie and this program. He is stronger man body and mind.
As an original member, I have been working Performance Changers since my sophomore year of high school and I can conclude that this program has indeed changed my life. What sets Performance Changers apart from any other workout program is that through working with Coach Lykes, adolescence not only develop into great athletes, but become even better leaders. Coach uses a hands-on approach that not only walks athletes through intense workout sessions, but yet also challenges their mental toughness. Coach keeps his athletes highly motivated by frequently asking them not only if they would like to be great, but how far they are willing to go to get there. Personally, I’ve watched both my mind and body do a complete three-sixty, all while developing a father-like relationship with Coach. Looking back, I am thankful I chose Performance Changers because I would not have molded into the successful young man that I am today. However, the opportunity to be great is available to anyone as me and Coach often say, “it only takes three times the work, give two time the effort, then you to blow up”.
Performance Changers has made a profound difference on my son’s body, mind and spirt. My sons went from a little chubby to completely chiseled body in a matter of a few weeks. The detailed training, he received from Lonnie Lykes and his staff has made a lasting impression on the way my son workouts, eats and maintains his body. Performance Changers used unconvential methods such as 1:1 rap session, selected reading material to help bolster my son’s confidence as well as performance changers staff showing up to his athletic events. This organization truly understands that athletic and academic performance must be in tandem for a student to be successful in life. I really appreciate the emphasis that Performance Changers places on character building and integrity for each student within their program. As a parent that has seen life changing results in my own son, I would 100 percent recommend Performance Changers to any parent seeking to prepare their student athlete for the game of life.
The Performance Changers program truly lives up to its name. Through these trainings my performance, at the collegiate level, was forever changed. Working with Coach Lykes and the other trainers offered me one-on-one support for workouts that were personally created for improvement specific to me and my sport. With these sport specific workouts my muscles were well-trained which greatly decreased the risk of injury. Before Performance Changers I was a leader, hard-worker and over all successful college athlete but this program took me to the next level and changed areas of weakness to strengths. The workouts were always challenging and never allowed complacency which transferred directly into my performance during competition. I cannot thank Coach Lykes enough for training me physically and mentally to improve my overall performance.
My experience with Performance Changers was life changing to say the least. The focus was not only on physical improvement, but it built my mental focus and I became a better version of myself. The work we do while going through the program was meticulous and shaped specifically for me and my strengths and weaknesses to make sure that I was strengthening even the smaller muscle groups to prevent injury and take my game to the next level. I saw my confidence grow so I had better numbers on the field but more importantly my mental focus Benefited as well and it helped me at home life, and greatly increased my productivity in school.
