Permanent solution > quick fixes

Do you want to be stronger, but understanding how to make that happen is too confusing?  

We get it. The majority of our members started in the exact same place as you.

But now, they can confidently perform their exercises without worrying about injury or “Am I doing this right?”.

If you want to get familiar with strength training, let us take the overwhelm and confusion out of the process.

With our educated coaches, intentional program, and supportive community we can reshape fitness from intimidating to familiar.

In fact, you may even find yourself addicted to your new found strength and independence with resistance training.

What are you waiting for?

The only bad workout is the one you didn't do

“I can’t believe I did that”. A common phrase we hear all the time at AZPI. Members achieving feats of strength like getting their first pull up. Or finally being able to play with their kids (pain free).

And milestones they never thought possible such as running their first 5k! We celebrate these kinds of victories all the time.

If you’re tired of the quick-fix, rapid weight loss approach and looking for the tools and guidance towards REAL, lasting change, you’ve found your community.

We help people get stronger, stay out of pain, surpass their goals and create an experience that will last a lifetime.

I've worked with several of the PTs at AZPI and never been so happy with my care! It makes such a difference to have one-on-one care. I also love the small-group classes strength classes. Fantastic place!

I joined AZPI about 2 years ago after weighing in at a chunky / unhealthy 256 lbs as well as getting diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol. Will O’Connell and the AZPI team worked with me to get my strength up, endurance up, weight down in a fun, challenging environment. With in house physical therapy (Julie, Bri, Brady) any aches / pains can be addressed quickly to get you back in the gym. For me it was life changing and exactly what I needed at the precise moment I needed it. At 54 I might be in the best shape I have been in since my 20s.

All API staff members are professional, kind, and exceed expectations. I’m recovering from my second surgery and wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Everyone on staff is beyond helpful. The PTs are extremely knowledgeable and instill a sense of confidence about your healing journey. They are willing to work as hard as you are at getting the results you need and up to date with the current research on interventions. There isn’t a bad PT on staff and they are great partners for whatever results you need.

Hands down best PT place I’ve ever been, they helped me get back to playing sports after my surgery in far less time than I thought it would be. I felt like they truly cared and were invested in each and every patients recovery. I would recommend this place/the therapists to anyone!!

AZPI has been great. I was referred to AZPI by my Orthopedic Dr for post rotator cuff surgery PT. I had my initial appointment with Dr. Bri my second visit with Dr. Brady. They were both caring, friendly and knowledgeable! The facility is very clean and well organized. I feel like they have my best interest in mind. Everyone I've interacted with has been polite and professional.

5 stars to Arizona performance Institute. I cannot say enough for one there very professional Christine At the front desk, always meets you with smile. I unfortunately, through the years I have broke my shoulder and then had injured my back so I’m not a stranger to Physical Therapy places In the valley.and in no way do any of them even compare to this place. I cannot say enough about Julie my physical therapist. She is so knowledgeable and compassionate and she just has the wonderful gift of motivating you when you’re not at your best. Whatever you have injured with me a broken knee Facilities are outstanding and phenomenal they hold fitness classes also have personal training. When I’m finished with my physical therapy, I would love to train with one of the trainers here. Again, five stars you have to come see their facility.

Excellent one on one care. Great atmosphere and experienced physical therapist. I went to a different pt for 6 weeks no results. 2 week with Arizona performance and i am so much better. Highly recommend. Everyone there is amazing especially Brie.

I was so happy to get one-on-one attention. API was out of network with my particular insurance, and I HAPPILY paid inexpensive cash fees to get expert care from them anyway! I had a severe injury, and I didn't like how my last PT used several intern staff to treat me instead of the actual PT himself. At API I received fantastic attention.

I cannot recommend AZPI enough! They have truly transformed my life and helped me overcome debilitating knee and hip pain that once felt insurmountable.Two years ago, I was recovering from knee surgery and facing severe arthritis that left me doubting if I could continue my military career. It felt like my body was giving up on me, and the prospect of stepping away from the career I love was heartbreaking and mentally overwhelming.Fast forward two years, and thanks to the incredible team at AZPI, I’ve made an incredible recovery—not just from my knee surgery but also a follow-up hip surgery. Despite significant cartilage damage in both knees and one hip, I’m now moving better than I have since 2019. I feel stronger, healthier, and more capable than I ever thought possible during those tough times.Each member of the AZPI team brings unique expertise and dedication, working together to make a life-changing impact on my health and quality of life. Their personalized care and unwavering support have been instrumental in restoring not only my physical capabilities but also my confidence and happiness.Thank you, AZPI, for giving me my life back and allowing me to continue serving in the military. You are truly the best at what you do, and I am forever grateful!

Bri and the entire team have been fantastic. We got a recommendation from my cousin about starting physical therapy here after my mom broke her patella and they have just been a dream! Very friendly environment and it's fun to watch the other activity/group fitness programs they have!

Nothing but good things! I’ve been seeing Julie at AZ Performance Institute for about 5 weeks. I’m a second time postpartum mom and pelvic floor issues led me to seek physical therapy. In just over a month Julie has helped me feel a lot more confident in my recovery, ability, and my future. The facility is nice, all the staff is really friendly, great vibes all around.

Amazing! I pay them to stab me and electrocute me, it’s great. To be fair it’s tiny needles and a TENS unit but still. Everyone there is great and I always walk out feeling better than when I walked in. I would highly recommend them to my only friend who happens to be my wife and is the one who recommended me to them. In short they are amazing and everyone should go.
