Pillars trained every day
Most of a soccer career happens between practices, not during them.
The mental side. Fueling. Recovery. Recruiting. The reps an athlete does alone — in their room, in their head, on the drive home from a hard game. The part nobody else is positioned to coach.
We don’t train one thing six times. We train six things, every day. That’s the system we built.
How the system works.
One spine. One of the deepest drill libraries on the platform. Built around your athlete from Day 1.
The 30-day spine
Foundation. Build. Chaos.
Each phase runs ten days. Foundation teaches the system; Build makes it automatic; Chaos puts it under game speed. Day 1 is intake. Day 5, 15, 25 are recovery. Day 10 and 20 are full rest. Day 30 is the showcase — a benchmark against where they started.
The drill library
One of the deepest libraries on the platform.
134 drills. Every one with video, coaching cues, and progressions. Position-specific from Day 1, including goalkeeper. Pull from the library any day — work on the touch you missed yesterday, the press that beat you Sunday, or anything else you need.
The personalization
The system bends to the athlete.
The intake calibrates everything — age, position, equipment, schedule, the one thing you’re working on. Day 1 for a 12-year-old looks different than Day 1 for a 19-year-old. The system adapts to you, not the other way around.
The same Performance System runs every cycle — preseason, season, offseason. Restart it any time on the yearly plan.
“Ascend gave our family clarity. Instead of feeling lost in the recruiting process, we finally had a clear system and weekly action steps.”
— Parent of High School Striker
All six pillars. Every day.
We don’t train soccer players. We train the inside first — then the five physical disciplines that surround it.
Every pillar exists because there was a session — somewhere on a Berkeley field or a Beach Chalet sideline — where we needed it and didn’t have it. We’re not selling theory. We’re selling the thing we had to find ourselves.

Twelve athletes. Twelve D1 commitments.
Three voices below. The other nine on the strip.
“Ascend helped me become a more confident, disciplined, and complete player. Ultimately led to my commitment to UC San Diego.”
Michael Luechauer
D1 Winger → UC San Diego
“The goalie-specific drills were one of the best parts of Ascend — footwork, handling, distribution, positioning. It played a huge role in helping me commit to UCSB.”
David Ruy
D1 Goalkeeper → UC Santa Barbara
“Ascend helped me stay locked in through the recruiting process. It helped me earn my commitment to the United States Military Academy.”
Abhishek Tomar
D1 Midfielder → US Military Academy
Inside the system.
Six things every member gets the moment intake finishes. All of it, in the free trial.
01
Full system access
The whole thing, unlocked the moment intake finishes. Full 30-day training plan. Nutrition protocols. Mental framework. Recovery and mobility blocks. Sprint and strength programming. Tactical film prompts. Goalkeeper track. Every pillar, every day — not a sampler.
02
All 134 drills
Every one with video, coaching cues, and progressions. Position-specific from Day 1, including goalkeeper.
03
Daily parent notes
Plain language. What was trained, why it matters, what to look for. You do not need to know soccer.
04
Weekly notes from Kai and Miko
Real writing. Direct from the brothers. Not automated. Not motivational. One specific truth per week.
05
Game Day AI
Pregame routines, breathing protocols, post-game reflections — calibrated to your athlete from the intake.
06
The Class of 2027
Optional. Join the documented cohort of athletes training alongside you. Day 1 video, milestone checks, final reflection.
Where to begin.
Most weekend ID camps run $400–$800. Thirty days of the system runs $199. The year runs $399.
One cycle
30 Days
Full access to the system. One-time payment. Yours forever.
Days 1–3 free. No card.
What we recommend
Yearly Access
365 days of access. Restart cycles preseason, season, offseason. All future updates included.
Days 1–3 free. No card.
Everything in 30 Days, plus —
Use the system for 3 days. If your athlete does not feel the difference, you do not pay.
No card at signup. No subscription. By Day 3 they train, think, and recover differently — or you walk away with everything you already unlocked.
Before you ask.
Is my 10-year-old too young for this?+
No. The system adapts by age automatically. Under-13 athletes get bodyweight-only strength work, age-appropriate movement foundations, and no barbell exercises. The mental and technical content starts from Day 1 regardless of age.
We already pay for a private trainer. Why add this?+
This is what you do the other 6 days. A trainer covers one session a week. Ascend covers nutrition, mental performance, recovery, tactical IQ, and recruiting — everything that happens between sessions. The two compound each other.
What happens after 30 days?+
You keep everything you unlocked. It is access, not a subscription. Or upgrade to the $399/year plan for unlimited year-round access, the ability to restart cycles seasonally, and all future updates.
I don’t know soccer. How do I support my athlete?+
Every session includes a parent note in plain language — what was trained, why it matters, and what to look for. You do not need to know the game. You just need to show up, which you already do.
What age range and positions is this built for?+
Ages 9–22, every field position including goalkeeper. The system personalizes to position, age group, equipment access, and schedule from Day 1 through the intake form.
You’re ready.

Reading this between club seasons? Day 30 lands the week before fall tryouts. That window only opens once a year.
