Awesome facility with top notch trainers who are committed to the cutting edge. Movement testing and comprehensive personal evaluation before designing functional strength programs. I love this model of 3 personalized programs per month, constantly refreshing and remaining dynamic. I have become stronger here than at any other time in my life. Supportive healthy fun environment. I really can't say enough about how much I love this place and the people. Highly recommend. More...

Best gym in Charlottte! If you are tired of getting injured at Crossfit, come to PU for true training that is customized to you and your injury history. This isn't a bodybuilder shop... it's for regular people that want to be healthy and fit. They make it fun and provide a family atmosphere. Give it a try for a month... you won't be disappointed!

I highly recommend Performance Unlimited to anyone who wants to get in shape and become more aware of the mind body connection. I joined the gym in August 2019 because of a hip issue I was having and could barely walk without pain. The Personal Trainers I worked with are miracle workers. After a few short months I was able to walk for longer distances without much pain. They worked with me by strengthening all the supporting muscles in my spine, hip and legs. I love going to this gym, even at 6:00am in the morning, because of the positive energy and the great music they play to get you going. Joining the gym is my health insurance policy. By keeping my body in the best shape it can be, it will take care of me for years to come. If I can do it at 73yrs old, so can you. Great people that work at PU! More...

I am so impressed by this facility and their staff. Their incredible attention to detail and support that they offer to each client is hands down platinum standard. They truly care about the health and well being of each and every member. I have been an intern for a few months at this gym and I am constantly in awe of how they personal train their clients and their immense knowledge. You simply can't find their unique style of training anywhere else. They provide more than just exercise, it is a life changing experience. Each client has an individual exercise program tailored to their specific needs, such as working around or to improve injuries. Or helping you to stay competitive in your sports performance, they do it all. Each staff member is patient, kind, caring, passionate about what they do, and very easy to work with. This isn't just a gym, it's medicine for the body, and the people they serve are more than just clients, they are family. I pitty the fool that doesn't give this gym a try :) More...

Performance Unlimited has been my number one choice for all of my athletic needs before and during the season. Their staff is very passionate and easy to work with, yet very demanding. Regardless of the purpose of the visit to the facility, each staff member demands 110% focus and commitment to getting better everyday. Performance U has added more advanced equipments and machinery used for recovery, injury prevention, and progression. I also like that they offer other services such as yoga and martial arts. It’s rare to find a facility that offers so many essential services to pro athletes and the general population without compromising its quality and professionalism. Excited for the future at Performance United! More...

I have been coming to Performance Unlimited for the last few months consistently. These guys care about you more than a standard trainer ever would. They really do care about your overall well being and what your true goals really are. Since beginning my workout I have dropped 30 pounds in 3 months and I have also gained back mobility in my left shoulder after a separation years ago. They saw that I had those issues and helped gear a better workout to improve my lifestyle. More...

Quality facility with even higher quality coaches. I attended a Mobility class and a Conditioning class, both instructed by Dylan, and was blown away by his knowledge of the human body as well as his ability to relate to me as a person. Regardless of whether your fitness goals are recreational or professional, these coaches will never make you feel like you’re on the journey alone. Above that, Performance Unlimited’s highest merit is the culture they have created. Never have I walked into a gym or training facility and made a personal connection as quickly as I did here. Performance Unlimited will be around for a long time and it will be extremely worth your time to give them a visit. More...

This is not a gym; it is a hub for true development, recovery, and prevention in whatever you might possibly need.You could be just wanting to improve every day to day movements, recovering from a new or old injury, wanting to be a better athlete, or simply wanting to get in shape.

I've been lucky enough to be a part of the Performance Unlimited family for 5 years now. It's easy to say your gym is "different" but it's another thing to actually see what different means. From running 5Ks together, building a community garden, supporting members through major life events like a new baby and weddings, and challenging each other on the constant journey of health and wellness this place is unlike anything else around. If you're committed to reaching a specific goal, are open to guidance along the way, and want a support system to be there then this is the right spot. More...

Both my mom and I have been coming to PU for many years. Now that I am in college, my time here throughout the year has been greatly shortened. When I am home the trainers act like I have never left- they always have personalized workouts and are willing to work with my college athletics schedule to help me become the best athlete I aim to be. The people I end up missing the most are the other members you meet because they become family when you work out with them nearly everyday- they ask when I will be home, keep up with my college team, and we all look forward to their free competitive workout classes on Saturday mornings, when we are all together.

Summer 2018 we drove an hour each way, several times a week to get our 15 year old son (who played at an MLS academy) to training sessions at Performance Unlimited. As a result of our time with the coaches he was definitely stronger and faster and just moved better. More than that, they have been a part of his life even when he moved back to his academy. We are HUGE fans of PerformanceU and believe it’s well worth your time and money to invest in a summer or season of training with them rather than one week at a camp. More...

John, Dr. William Graham, and their team at Performance Unlimited are some of the very best I have worked with in my athletic career. John and Dr. Graham have rehabilitated my injuries on numerous occasions, facilitated my pre-season and in-season training, and allowed me to gain valuable experience as a part-time coach. But, more than that, John has been a friend. He and each member of the staff genuinely invest themselves in the client and their development, both personally and physically. The attention to detail at Performance Unlimited is unparalleled. The coaches are consistently on the forefront of research in order to optimize the training experience - whether through FRC, ELDOA, or a number of other certifications unique to Charlotte - but also to enhance the client’s development outside of the gym with a comprehensive outlook on nutrition, stress management, and sleep. Simply put, whether you are in pain and burnt out on the fitness industry, need to rehabilitate an injury, want to get healthy and strong, or are searching for a place to maximize your child’s (or your own) athletic development, Performance Unlimited is the only place to go. It is more than a gym! More...

I have been going to Performance Unlimited about a year now- and I love it! John and Billy are great!! The method behind their training can’t be beat. They are truly about building up the body from a healthy, safe and individual standpoint- the “why” behind each exercise. The personal training is tailored to your body’s needs first (get healthy, build a solid foundation and stay healthy with safe with proper technique) and then to your personal goals (physical appearance). It took me a minute to understand that (bc I wanted to “get right to it”) — but I am grateful of how things progressed. More...

I have been a Performance Unlimited client for more than 4 years. I am 53 and although no longer playing sports competitively, movement and staying active remains a priority to feeling healthy and energized. At my age however I don't have the same physical capacity or recovery than my younger self. Over the past 4 years my experience working out at PU has been nothing short of awesome. The PU team is committed to creating effective individual training regimens designed specifically to my body needs and abilities. PU’s understanding of the human anatomy and body movement really takes the process and approach to training and movement to the next level. Because my goals and what my body can do are unique, the PU team works closely not just with initial assessments, but on an on going basis with a designed workout program specific to my needs. Creating quality movement remains the staff's priority. Progression and progress are important, but not at the risk of injury, or compromising quality of movement. For me this approach is not only a pathway to reaching my fitness goals, it has elevated my own body intelligence and accountability which has helped me take better care of myself both in and out of the gym. I am very grateful for PU and the people that make it a truly unique and innovative fitness community. More...

I have zero hesitation recommending Performance Unlimited to anyone who is ready to make a change for the better in their life. This is not your average gym! It is more like a family where you can learn, grow, and surround yourself with amazing people who care about more than just sets and reps.I came here because I was tired of trying to do it all on my own, and wanted help finding the most efficient ways to improve my strength, mobility, movement quality + technique, and conditioning. The PU team continues to help me with all of that with my individual program every day, and I've also improved in my mindset and nutrition along the way.It is awesome knowing without a doubt that I'm going to get better every time I step inside.

They are always ready to customize things as needed, give feedback and tips on your form and movement, and answer any questions that come up.

Q&As

Our process is never cookie cutter and starts with a full intake and understanding of your goals, your current movement ability, injury history, and training preferences. We educate and coach our clients within 7 pillars that create a directive to health and happiness (eat, sleep, manage stress, move, self, others, nature). We are experts in movement and advocates in most every aspects of health and wellness.

Awareness. Intelligence. Capacity.
Fully understanding what aspect of your life is currently falling short of a minimal standard and developing skills and drills that will improve this aspect consistently. You must act, think, be the person you want to be before seeing the changes you want to make.

Because the industry is broken and I believe that I can help solve it.

They should only choose us if they believe we are a fit for their needs and desires. We are not for everyone, but if you are between 35 and 65, struggling to find a solution for pain, weight loss, health management, or performance enhancement...then we can provide the tools to get you there.

Services

Highly personalized and relationship training sessions designed specific for your needs.
