Barrett Performance

Built From Experience | Backed By Standards | Proven Under Pressure

Alex Barrett is a 9-year NFL veteran, spending the majority of his career with the San Francisco 49ers, with prior stops with the Detroit Lions, Oakland Raiders, and the San Diego Fleet (AAF). His path to the NFL was built through discipline, resilience, and a relentless investment in himself—especially in the weight room. For Alex, training wasn’t optional; it was his competitive edge.

As an undrafted free agent fighting every season to earn or protect a roster spot, Alex learned early that the work you put in when nobody is watching determines the player you become when everyone is. His longevity in the league wasn’t luck—it was process. It was preparation. It was a training system built on world-class strength methodologies.

“What you do in the weight room has a direct impact on the season you have. It’s just as important—if not more important—than the season itself.”

This philosophy—the foundation of Alex’s entire career—is now the foundation of Barrett Performance. Today, Alex brings these elite systems to athletes and clients of all ages. Whether you’re a high school athlete chasing college opportunities, a collegiate athlete preparing for a professional future, or an adult who wants to reclaim their strength, energy, and confidence, Alex teaches the exact blueprint that carried him through nine seasons in the NFL.

Building Men Through Training, Discipline, Mentorship, and Faith.

Our Mission

At Barrett Performance, training is bigger than sets, reps, and performance numbers. Our mission is to build men through training, discipline, mentorship, and faith. The weight room becomes the classroom, and the standard built in training carries into life, sport, family, and leadership.

The Four Pillars

The Standard

01

Professionalism

Is the standard.

Be consistent.
Be disciplined.
Be trustworthy.

It means showing up prepared, carrying yourself the right way, and doing things with order and excellence even when nobody is watching.

The Foundation

02

Respect

Is the foundation of character.

Respect yourself.
Respect others.
Earn respect through your actions.

It is earned through humility, consistency, effort, and how you treat others. True leadership begins with respect.

The Discipline

03

Obedience

Is the ability to receive wisdom and apply guidance.

Be coachable.
Receive wisdom.
Trust the process.

A young man who wants to grow must be humble enough to understand that he cannot do it all himself. Obedience means listening, applying instruction, and becoming someone others can trust.

The Anchor

04

Faith

Is the anchor that keeps you grounded.

Trust God.
Trust the process.
Keep building.

It gives purpose to the work, builds resilience through adversity, and reminds us that growth is about more than performance alone.

Scriptural Foundation

1 Corinthians 14:40

"Let all things be done decently and in order."

1 Peter 2:17

"Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king."

Proverbs 19:20

"Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future."

Proverbs 3:5–6

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding."

Begin With A Free 3D Movement Analysis

A new way to understand mobility

Most coaches assess movement by watching athletes perform exercises. But mobility restrictions, stability issues, and compensations often happen too quickly to catch especially across multiple joints at once.

Barrett Performance turns your phone into a 3D movement analysis system that evaluates how every major joint moves during an exercise. In seconds, you can identify the limitations affecting performance and understand exactly what you need to improve.

Kerry Hyder

“Blueprint training systems allowed me to unlock a whole new level of strength that I knew I had. This system is not for the weak but I guarantee you it will pay off more than you can imagine!”
