why attack today

Attack today was founded on one simple belief:

You only get one chance to make the most of today!

Meet the Coach

More Than a Trainer
Coach Derrick Beasley II is the founder and head performance coach of Attack Today, a sports performance program created to help young athletes become faster, stronger, more explosive, and more confident.

For Coach Beasley, training has never been about simply putting athletes through hard workouts. It’s about developing the complete athlete and giving young people an environment where they are challenged, supported, held accountable, and taught how to compete with confidence.

Why I Started Attack Today
Attack Today was created to give young athletes a place where they can truly develop—not just physically, but mentally as well.

Every athlete comes in at a different level. Some are naturally fast. Some are strong. Some are still learning how to move. Some have big goals but haven't developed the confidence to believe they can reach them yet.

Which is okay. I don't expect an athlete to walk through the door already being great.

I Just Need Your Effort. I'll Do the Rest. That's one of the biggest things I want athletes and parents to understand.

Give me your effort, your attitude, and your willingness to learn. I'll do everything I can to help with the rest.

You don't have to be the fastest athlete in the group.
You don't have to be the strongest.
You don't have to know every exercise or have years of training experience.
You just have to be willing to work.

My responsibility as your coach is to meet you where you are, teach you, challenge you, correct you, encourage you, and create a plan that helps you improve.

I can't promise that everything will be easy, and improvement doesn't happen overnight. But if an athlete consistently brings effort and is willing to be coached, we have something we can build on.

My Training Philosophy
Quality over quantity.

Every drill, sprint, lift, and movement should have a purpose.
Attack Today training focuses on developing speed, acceleration, change of direction, explosiveness, strength, stability, body control, and overall athletic movement.

Athletes are coached based on their age, experience, ability, and individual needs. A beginner shouldn't be expected to train exactly like an experienced high school athlete.

The goal isn't just to make athletes tired. The goal is to make athletes better.

What Makes Attack Today Different?
Attack Today is built around relationships, accountability, competition, effort, and purposeful development.

Athletes aren't treated like another number in a workout group. I want to know who I'm coaching — their strengths, weaknesses, goals, personality, and what motivates them.

I'll bring the coaching. I'll bring the energy. I'll bring the accountability.

I just need the athlete to bring the effort. That's where development starts.

The Attack Today Standard
Attack Today is bigger than workouts.

It's about teaching athletes to work with purpose, compete with confidence, respond to adversity, and hold themselves accountable.

Those lessons matter in sports—but they also matter long after the game is over.

Quality over quantity. Train with purpose. Attack Today!
