About TMC

FORGED FOR
THE LONG GAME

Empowering athletes everywhere with the information and individualized attention they need to unleash their ability. That is why The Metal Chapter exists. That is what we have been doing since 2012, and that is what every athlete who walks through our doors gets — not a program off a shelf, but a path built for them.

Every person is unique. Every person is capable of doing incredible things when given the correct information to be successful. That conviction drives everything we do. We assess your capabilities, identify the gap between where you are and where you want to be, and build the program that closes it. The days of cookie-cutter programs are over. It's time to focus — let's define your athletic goals, and go accomplish them.

Coaching is not a job here — it is a calling. We have worked tirelessly to be a good steward of that calling. We will show you the doors. It is up to you to walk through them. We will be there to tell you when it's time to grease the hinges, pick the lock, find a new door, or just bust it down. The only thing we need from you is your effort. Here we go.

"Over 16 years, the athletes who have been coached by Heidi have gone on to earn college commitments, professional draft selections, Cy Young Awards, World Series MVPs, Collegiate Freshman of the Year honors, College World Series Player of the Year, All-American recognition, Olympic medal winners — and that list keeps growing."
At TMC, the athlete's stories belong to them — and to the Lord who opened those doors. We just helped them and made sure they were ready.

Training Programs

HOW WE
WORK

Whether you're an athlete training on your own, a small group pushing each other, or a full team looking for an edge — we have a program built for you. All sports. All ages. All levels.

🏋️
Individual Training

One-on-one athlete development with a program built specifically around your sport, your position, your current level, and your goals. Full performance testing included. We know where you are and we build the road to where you need to be.

⚡
Group Training

Small group sessions where athletes push each other and build together. Iron sharpens iron — the energy in a group training environment is unlike anything else. Athletes from any sport are welcome. Sessions are structured, coached, and data-tracked.

🏆
Team Training

Full team performance programs for clubs and organizations. We come to your facility or host at ours. Every athlete is individually assessed and tracked. Your coaching staff gets data on the entire roster. We work around your season schedule.

Athletic Performance Combine Series

HOW TO
TEST YOUR
METAL.

You train. You compete. But do you actually know where you stand? Most athletes have never had a real answer to that question. They know their stats. They know their film. But they have never had their speed nationally ranked, their power measured, their movement quality documented, and their injury risk screened — all in a single report that follows them through recruiting.

The TMC Combine gives them that. In one event, your athletes walk away with professional-grade data — the same testing standards used at pro combines — and a digital performance profile that follows athletes throughout the years of recruiting.

Athletes register directly. You promote the event to your families. We set up, staff, test, and deliver every individual report on a national data base they have access to!

HOUSTON'S
UNIVERSAL SPEED LAB

The Metal Chapter is Houston's Universal Speed Lab. USR is a national network benchmarking over 100,000 athletes — producing verified speed rankings that college coaches and professional scouts recognize and reference in recruiting decisions.

What that credential means for your athlete: their speed is not just clocked — it is documented, nationally ranked, and attached to a profile that travels with them through the recruiting process. A number a coach can look up and trust.

At the TMC Speed Lab, every athlete receives an in-depth sprint analysis that breaks down the strengths and weaknesses of their mechanics. Post-assessment, they receive their digital USR profile and an individualized training program prescribed directly to their results. Come back, retest, and watch the numbers move.
