Strength & Conditioning

  • Every session is designed with one goal in mind: improving athletic performance. By analyzing each athlete’s strengths and areas for growth, we create off-court training that enhances power, speed, agility, and endurance. Every exercise is purposeful, ensuring that time spent in the gym directly translates to smarter, faster, and a more effective performance.

  • At Aspiring Athlete, we cultivate a high-performance, positive environment where athletes are inspired to push past limits and discover what they are truly capable of. Our programs combine strength, agility, and mental training to help athletes develop not just physical power, but the resilience, focus, and work ethic required to succeed at the next level.

  • Training is led by Coach Maleki Harris, and supported by Coach Cornwall. Coach Harris is a former Division 1 athlete and five-year CFL linebacker. His approach is unlike any other in the area — he pushes athletes every time they step through the door, ensuring they get stronger, faster, and more prepared for competition.

Led by former Division 1 and CFL Athlete

Coach Harris is a University of South Alabama Football alumni and former five-year CFL linebacker, whose career was built on discipline, resilience, and an uncompromising work ethic.

Now based in British Columbia, Coach Harris has spent nearly four years working with athletes and has identified a major gap in physical preparation. Many athletes label themselves as “high-performance,” yet move directly from unstructured summer activity—such as playing beach volleyball a few times a week—into demanding school seasons and multiple club training programs. Without a structured strength foundation, their bodies are expected to perform, recover, and stay healthy at a level they are not prepared for.

In addition to his private coaching work, Coach Harris has served as the Head Linebackers Coach for Team BC U18 Football and was most recently selected as the Linebackers Coach and Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Langley Rams.

Driven to close this preparation gap in high performance sport, Coach Harris coaches driven athletes of all sizes and skill levels to train like elite competitors. Inside the gym, the emphasis is on proper mechanics, disciplined lifting, and challenging strength work that develops both physical power and mental resilience. His approach ensures athletes maximize their strengths, address weaknesses, and turn consistent effort into measurable, long-term results.
