Distinct Performance Training (Distinct Training) offers football training services in Houston, Katy, Cypress, Fulshear, Sugar Land, and Richmond.
Too often, young athletes are pushed into competition before they fully understand movement, technique, body control, or the fundamentals of the game. Distinct Performance was created to fill that gap by giving youth athletes access to high-quality coaching, individualized assessment, and professional-level instruction in a safe and structured environment.

Train withCoach Shaneil Jenkins
I love people, and I have a deep desire to see young men reach their full potential and build strong character along the way. Raised in Prince George's County, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C., I'm blessed with a beautiful, sweet wife and a lovely daughter, and I love serving in my local church. My goal is always what's best for the athlete, and I'm happy to help make that happen.
“Looks the part... very impressive in his pro-day workout, showing quickness.”

What makes our program different
Athletes are not put into a one-size-fits-all model. Training is designed to meet each athlete at the right developmental stage through individualized coaching, professional instruction, and a strong emphasis on safe technique.
Strength and conditioning, functional movement, and biomechanics for every athlete. Open to any sport and any position, from youth through college, including athletes outside the defensive line.
Young defensive linemen and linebackers learn how a pass rush starts: stance, the first step, and simple footwork. Sessions stay fun, with safe contact habits and plenty of reps that build confidence. The aim is a clear, athletic base before the moves get more advanced.
Ages 10-13
This group adds technique to the fundamentals. Athletes work on hand placement, get-off, and a few basic pass-rush moves used by defensive linemen and linebackers. Strength training stays foundational, so the body can support the skill work. Players practice details they can use in games, at a pace that fits ages 10–13.
Ages 14-17
High school defensive linemen and linebackers train advanced pass-rush plans, hand combat, and run fits. Film helps shape the technique so the rush matches the opponent in front of them. Sessions also build recruiting-ready habits: showing up prepared, finishing reps, and knowing the rush plan.
Collegiate Athletes
College defensive linemen and linebackers refine counters and build a rush plan for the player across from them. In-season work maintains the pass rush around the game schedule. Off-season sessions go deeper on technique, hands, and the details that hold up against better blockers.
Basketball, soccer, baseball, track, volleyball, and more. Training focuses on strength, speed, agility, explosiveness, injury-resilient movement, and biomechanics. Ages 8 through college.
This is the Athletic Performance & Movement program. It is for athletes of every sport and position, not only football, and it uses the same small-group pricing.
Strength & Conditioning • Functional Movement • Biomechanics
This program is open to all athletes: any sport, any position, from youth through college. Linemen are welcome, and so are athletes from every other sport and position.
Age-appropriate strength and conditioning
Speed, agility, and acceleration mechanics
Functional movement, mobility, and flexibility
Biomechanics of running, cutting, jumping, and landing, to move efficiently and reduce injury risk
Combine training prepares defensive linemen and pass rushers for combines, camps, and pro days. Sessions cover 40-yard dash starts and splits, the pro agility shuttle, the L-drill / 3-cone, vertical and broad jumps, and bench prep. Position drills stay tied to the defensive line and linebacker pass rush, so the testing work still looks like football.
Coached by a former Shepherd University defensive end who tested 4.78 in the 40 at 281 lbs.
Built with safety and long-termdevelopment in mind
Without proper assessment and coaching, young athletes face a greater risk of preventable injury and poor movement habits. Distinct Performance emphasizes proper mechanics, progressive instruction, controlled development, and safe training habits that help athletes grow the right way.
We believe youth training should build athletes up, not break them down.
Pricing
At Distinct Performance, we believe athletic development requires more than just showing up to train. Our programs focus on developing stronger, faster, more explosive, and technically sound athletes through structured coaching, consistent training, and measurable progress.
Whether your athlete thrives in a competitive small-group setting or requires more personalized instruction, we offer training options designed to support their development.
Why small-group training: athletes train in a competitive environment, with coaching attention in groups of 5–10. Sessions are built for consistency and structured progression.
The $65 monthly gym membership is required by the training facility and is included in the total monthly prices shown.
Distinct training services are based at our home base in West Houston, with flexible training locations across Cypress, Katy, Fulshear, Richmond, Sugar Land, and surrounding Greater Houston communities. Session locations are confirmed when you book.
