“Josh is an awesome strength coach with a solid basketball background. He brings a ton of energy, pushes players to be their best, and makes training both challenging and fun. On top of that, he’s a great guy to be around off the court too—hardworking, easygoing, and always up for a good time. If you’re looking for someone who knows the game and keeps things positive, Josh is your guy!”

“I started working out with OG in 2021 after my first nbl1 season and over the 4 years he has helped me not only build muscle and athleticism but also showed me how to take a more professional approach to my training and everyday life. My experience with OG has been great not just as an s&c coach but outside of the gym as well he’s like an older brother or unc (🤣) .”

“Among all the strength and conditioning programs I've participated in throughout my basketball career, OG's has not only been my favourite but also the one from which I've gained the most benefits. OG tailors his workouts to meet your individual needs and is always ready to adjust exercises based on how your body feels on any given day. He also helped me prioritize recovery during my sessions, rather than treating it as an afterthought. The energy Josh brings to each workout is contagious, creating an environment that’s both enthusiastic and enjoyable. He perfectly complements the atmosphere at PEAQ and takes full advantage of everything the facility has to offer.”

“I first started training with Josh in ‘22 in The Off-Court Project. Honestly, I was scared to even be in the gym with such high-level athletes, but to my surprise the very first session felt like I had been training there for years. People could say that it’s the athletes that create the environment, but OG’s organisational and interpersonal skills was what set every session apart. I felt like family the moment I stepped into the gym, because I was always greeted with a smile from OG’s left ear to his right (and then a joke about my outrageous muffin consumption). For people that are scared to take that first step, Josh O’Gorman is the strongest crutch to lean on.

Since my first session, I have always looked forward to the next, and for the next 3 years of my training all I have made is progress. People always talk about results… okay let’s talk results; OG was able to take my vertical leap from 30-inches to 40-inches; my 20-metre sprint from 3.5 seconds to 3 seconds flat; and increase my bench press by 7.5kgs, all in a 3-month period during OCP. His professionalism, knowledge and expertise, and background in basketball and sports is what makes Josh O’Gorman an elite strength and conditioning coach, but also someone I can call a great friend.”

“At the Henley Sharks, our goal is to provide our playing group with the best football program outside of the SANFL and having OG come on board last season to run our S&C program has helped us get closer to this goal.

Since working with Josh our players have noticed a huge difference in fitness levels, agility, and speed. And it has shown on game day with our squad being able to cover the ground better and run out games at a high level each week.

As a coach, Josh is great to work with as he can adjust his program on the go to suit our needs. Whether we need him to work with small groups, large groups, or we run into time restrictions, Josh can adapt to this seamlessly.

Having OG Athletic Performance played a huge part in our success in 2024, and we look forward to building on that for the 2025 season and beyond.”

“I cannot recommend Josh highly enough! His expertise in strength and conditioning has completely transformed my teams strength journey. From the very first session, he took the time to understand our goals, assess our abilities, and design a personalized training plan that pushed them beyond what I thought was possible.

Not only is Josh incredibly knowledgeable about proper technique, injury prevention, and performance optimization, but he also brings a level of motivation and encouragement that keeps us coming back for more. Thanks to his guidance, I have seen significant improvements in my  teams strength, endurance, and overall athleticism.

Whether you're an athlete looking to enhance performance or someone aiming to build strength and confidence, Josh is the coach you need. His  passion, dedication, and commitment to results are unmatched. I'm grateful to have his as a trainer for myself, my son and our team at Woodville.”

“My time with OG was truly transformational. In just under five months, he helped me completely change my body, elevate my vertical jump, and push me past limits I didn’t even think were possible. His energy and passion radiate every single day—you can feel it the moment you walk into the gym. He knows exactly how to get the best out of his athletes, and his coaching goes beyond just the workouts.

Not only is he an incredible coach, but he’s also an amazing person—an outstanding father and husband to be. He leads by example in every aspect of life. If you’re looking for a coach who will push you, support you, and truly invest in your growth, I highly encourage you to join his team. It’s more than training; it’s a family.”

“I can’t thank Josh enough for everything he’s done over the past three years, he’s been key in getting me through some of the toughest challenges, whether it was grinding through preseasons or rehabbing my ACL and meniscus injuries. His approach to strength and conditioning isn’t just about getting stronger and more powerful, it’s about understanding what my body needs, pushing me in the right ways, and making sure I come back better every time. Coming back from injuries is just as much about confidence as it is about physical recovery, and he’s been there every step of the way, keeping me motivated and believing in myself. Injuries can be heavy, but his guidance and encouragement made heaps of difference.

He’s not just an elite coach but an even better person, who genuinely cares about your success on and off the court.”

“OG Athletic Performance has been fantastic for me as a footballer. Josh is a fitness guru and driven to get the absolute best out of his clients. His personalised programming has given me significant improvements in strength, power, endurance, speed and overall performance. Josh is a cracking people-person and loves a laugh between sets.
I highly recommend OG Athletic Performance.”

“I’ve worked with OG now for about two years and it’s been awesome working with him. One of Josh’s best qualities is that he’s not just a coach as I’ve had many great conversations with him creating a really fun and engaging environment. In terms of getting results, he is definitely one of the best, taking my vertical from 39 inches to 45 inches and increasing some of my major lifts such as my bench-press from 100kg to 110 kg in just three months. If anyone asked me who they should go to for strength conditioning, I would always recommend OG Athletic Performance.”

“Training with Josh for the last couple of years has been an absolute game-changer for me. His expert knowledge and personalized approach has helped me significantly improve my strength, endurance, and mobility, all of which have significantly improved my game on the court. Josh knows how to push me to my limits while ensuring I stay safe and injury free. His positive attitude and constant encouragement makes every session motivating, and his focus on long-term progress has helped me see consistent improvements. Beyond physical gains, Josh’s dedication and genuine care for his clients make him an outstanding coach. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to take their basketball performance to the next level!"
