About HIT Center, The

High Intensity Training Centers (HIT Centers) is a new and unique fitness franchise opportunity offering sports performance enhancement and weight loss using several high intensity training programs. HIT stands for High Intensity Training.

The tried and true scientific principles of human physiology, neurology, kinesiology, and mycology fill scientific journals and have been studied by countless researchers for many decades. Application of these principles to human performance has received limited attention and no comprehensive, consolidated and integrated strategy until now.

The first HIT Center was opened in 2000 by Dr. Terry Shepherd, a nationally known exercise physiologist. The HIT Centers apply pure scientific principals of human physiology to sports and fitness, offering our clients state-of-the-art training and exercise protocols designed to maximize the body's potential. Our centers provide a model delivery system for sports performance enhancement, fitness, sports vision training, and weight loss in a scientifically designed exercise environment. Endorsed by NFL and MLB players and agents, our fitness and sports enhancement programs are unmatched in the industry.

HIT FIT - A high-level human performance/fitness program for general health and recreational athletes. Eyemetrix - A visual training program for all athletes.
