Marcus Elliott, MD - Director
Dr. Elliott is a Harvard trained physician specializing in performance enhancement and the development of elite athletes. As Founder and Director of P3, he is dedicated to applying cutting edge science for optimal athletic achievement. He has trained some of the world's best athletes including those at the U.S. Olympic Training Center, the Australian Institute of Sport, and the Sports Science Institute of South Africa. Since 1998, Dr. Elliott's primary focus has been on peak performance and injury prevention in U.S. professional power-based sports, including baseball, basketball, football, volleyball and soccer.

Starting in 1999 and continuing through their Super Bowl drive, Dr. Elliott was the physiologist and injury prevention specialist to the NFL's New England Patriots. He was widely credited with reducing muscle injuries in the Patriots and is currently completing NFL sponsored research leading to recommendations on optimal conditioning and injury prevention strategies. He is also a sports science consultant for a number of professional organizations, including the Utah Jazz and is in his first season as the Seattle Mariners first-ever Director of Sports Science and Performance. In recent years, more precise development and injury prevention of professional baseball players has become a core focus at Dr. Elliott's P3 sports science center.

Dr. Elliott is an internationally renowned leader in the field of sports science, a highly acclaimed speaker and serves on several boards in the sports and performance nutrition fields. He resides in Santa Barbara with his wife Nadine and two children.

In his own words:
"Age-old thinking is that success in athletics is determined by genetics, natural ability, sport-specific skill, and a strong work ethic. Current training programs offer a "one size fits all" cookie-cutter approach which typically includes weight lifting plus maybe some plyometrics and sprints. The paradigm has shifted. Elite athletes now need to possess power, strength, mobility, flexibility and other biomechanical factors that affect their ability to link successive segments to compete effectively in their sport's and position's unique movements. We use our backgrounds in sports science, along with sophisticated technologies to give competitive advantages to athletes by addressing and attacking their body's and sport's needs specifically."

In his own words:

While I wish I had the opportunity to train at P3 growing up, it is an honor to be part of P3, a culture that inspires people to achieve things they didn't know they were capable of."

As a former professional baseball player, Woody leads P3's baseball operations. Woody has had success in training professional athletes and high school and collegiate teams including Pepperdine's Baseball, Women's Volleyball and Women's Soccer teams through Sportswest Training.

Woody's athletic experience proves invaluable in applying P3's sport science into the unique sport of baseball.

In his own words:
"I am convinced that had I had P3 at my disposal early in my career that I would be playing at the highest level now. As a Performance Specialist for P3 I gladly take on the opportunity to develop those athletes on the cusp of taking their game to the next level. I am absolutely convinced that what we do at P3 is generations ahead of what is available to athletes around the country today."

In his own words:
"An injury introduced me to Dr. Marcus Elliott and I was very interested with the work he was doing as it was completely different than anything I had ever seen. I was very fortunate to be awarded an internship at P3 as it has improved my life in all aspects. The environment at P3 creates so many opportunities to learn on a daily basis, and the science based philosophy creates rationale for every single movement an athlete performs. With P3's outstanding reputation with developing interns, I was honored to become the first intern to be hired as a Performance Specialist."

Arri Jeschke - Performance Specialist
Arri received an athletic scholarship to play indoor volleyball at University of Hawaii (2002-2004), where he worked on his exercise science degree. He then played professional beach volleyball on the AVP and decided to become a Personal Trainer in 2007. He was accredited through NASM and started his internship working his way into a full-time performance specialist position in 2008.

In his own words:
"As an athlete, student of exercise science and certified personal trainer, I thought I had solid knowledge about training athletes. However, P3 revolutionized my thinking of applying real science to training athletes. Training in my spare time I have experienced tremendous gains from the workouts we take our athletes through. If I had only known earlier in my career what I know now I can't imagine where I would be. I now take pride in training both professional and amateur athletes who are fortunate to have access to P3's science-based athletic development."
