Athletes Edge’s Olympus is an online strength and conditioning subscription program for football players. It aims to take the training framework James Ralph uses with professional players and adapt it into a plan that serious everyday athletes can also follow. The program is delivered through the TeamBuildr App and includes training plans, exercise videos, progress tracking, feedback, and community support.
The product’s standout design is its “7 pathways”: Chronos is for players with busy match schedules, Perseus is for youth athletes around ages 6–12, Hermes suits beginners or those returning after injury, Ares focuses on strength, Zeus is for all-round development, Cerberus targets goalkeepers, and Hercules emphasizes physique, strength, and explosiveness. Training includes monthly periodized progression, gym workouts, and some on-pitch speed, agility, and jumping content, with the option to switch between pathways. Additional services include video exercise feedback, Q&A with James and the team, AI sprint analysis, a Discord community, workshops, and channels for nutrition, physiotherapy, supplements, and mindset.
All pathways are priced the same: £25/month or £250/year, with the annual plan saving £50 compared with paying monthly. The monthly plan can be canceled at any time, while the annual plan runs for 12 months. The terms state that refunds are at the operator’s discretion, with no guaranteed refund policy. Compared with one-to-one strength and conditioning coaching, the price barrier is relatively low, but users still need the discipline to follow the program consistently.
The advantages are its highly focused positioning, with an emphasis on football performance rather than general fitness; clearly segmented training pathways; and a strong stated founder background, with the copy saying he has worked with players from the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, the Bundesliga, MLS, and more. The subscription also includes the app, feedback, community, and data tracking, making it fairly comprehensive overall. The downsides are that the program is not medical advice, so injured users should not treat it as a substitute for rehabilitation; refund protection is weak; it requires access to a standard gym, free weights, a squat rack, cable machines, and a pitch, so it is not suitable for equipment-free home training; and while user feedback is plentiful, it is still mainly presented through individual case examples.
It is best suited to players with football-specific training goals who have gym access and want to systematically improve strength, speed, explosiveness, and injury resilience. It may also suit in-season players looking to maintain performance, goalkeepers, youth athletes focused on long-term development, and people rebuilding a foundation after returning from injury. It is less suitable for those who only want light fitness training, lack access to training facilities, or need clinical rehabilitation guidance.
