6-Week Essentials Pack
Look your best, feel your best, and play your best.
Hi, i’m connor derrickson
If you are here then you must already know me to some extent. But, in case you don’t, I am a trainer that coaches professional and amateur pickleball players around the country.
I work in the gym with real people, and I have perfected the online coaching systems.
I have worked with athletes ranging from 15 - 75 years of age. I have trained an even mix of men and women with all sorts of body types (from celebrities, professional athletes, other coaches, to every-day-normal people). I have seen it all.
Besides previously working for the Minnesota Twins, some current and former athletes include: The Brooklyn Aces, Anna Bright, Travis Rettenmaier, Catherine Parenteau, Thomas Wilson, Federico Stakstrud, Brooke Buckner, Allyce Jones, Altaf Merchant, and more.
C2 Athlete - Anna Bright
“Connor has helped increase my performance on court by helping me understand the benefits of off-court training. My regimen now is the best it’s ever been.”
Content Creator - Chris Olson
"Before C2 Performance I used to think I was too busy for the gym. They have been helping me with my routine and making me more efficient so I can be healthy on court."
Pro - Brooke Buckner
“After having multiple children I knew I needed to take my fitness serious to stay competitive - This training has transformed my body.
#1 Pro Singles - Federico Stakstrud
“I did connor’s program for over a year and I saw major improvements in my fitness and movement on the court. highly recommend him to anybody looking to physically get better.”
Why the Essentials program?
This isn’t a workout challenge. You aren’t expected to transform your body in 6 weeks and then be done. That’s not realistic, and neither are any “quick fixes”. The goal of this program is to get you started on a healthy lifestyle and teach good training and eating habits.
If you are new to strength training, this is a great place to start. Meanwhile, if you have lifted weights for a while but have typically done more traditional bodybuilding style training, this is a great place to start training like an athlete.
We will perform a mixture of lower body, upper body, and full body workouts.
What athletes are saying
program background
This is a 6-week program that’s taken me years to develop, refine, and perfect. After years of traveling the PPA tour, training athletes, and learning the game - I am comfortable saying that this is the best digital pickleball fitness plan.
I understand what normal people want in a training session, what they can do in 45-60 minutes of training, and how to program so that people get results without selling their soul to the gym.
Top 5 Pro - Catherine Parenteau
“I worked with Connor as my full time trainer for almost 2 years and I was recognizably stronger and faster on the court.”
Top 10 Pro - Travis Rettenmaier
"C2 performance knows how to train for optimal performance. I am 40 years old and feeling like im in my 20's"
Pro - Regina Goldberg
“Connor’s guidance and expertise has helped me tremendously!”
Content Creator - Shea Underwood
"Connor is currently training me on my journey to becoming a professional pickleball player. I knew he trained the best players in the world so I knew he was my best option.”
Watch my demo!
In depth exercise tutorials
I want you to get the most out of the movement and most importantly, I want you to stay healthy.
When I show an athlete a new exercise, they almost never do it right the first time just from watching my demo, so I wanted to give you very in-depth tutorials so you feel comfortable with every exercise.
I took the extra time to explain each exercise just as I would do with a new client, showing the intricacies and also the common mistakes people make so that you can avoid making them yourself.
NOT a quick fix
Made for pickleballers
NOT a challenge program
Science back principles
NOT a fad
Great for any skill level
An intro to better habits
Who is the program for?
Do you play pickleball? Then you.
Kind of kidding, kind of serious. I designed this program in a way that a total beginner can do it, AND so could one of my professional athletes. My programs are built in a progressive manner where each phase builds on the previous phase - our goal is to master each exercise before moving on.
Maybe you are a trainer looking for a new routine to use with athletes or clients - this is a great training template that you could use or turn into something of your own.

Final note
A lot of players come to me in injured, in pain, or in need of a routine that actually makes them better.
This is the plan that will help you play healthier and better pickleball. You may have thought that you have tried everything but if you haven’t trained consistently, like an athlete, and at a high intensity - Then you have tried everything except what works best.
There is never a perfect time to start, but the best time is now.
frequently asked questions
-
If you’re JUST looking to get jacked, increase your bench press, or want to train for aesthetics. This program is NOT for you.
I train people who are looking to attain better performance with aesthetics as a bi-product. We train movements, patterns, and functions as the priority.
I’ve trained loads of professional athletes in many different sports, and most of them have amazing physiques, solely as a byproduct of training for their sport. As such, the way I train most clients is a slightly toned-down version of how the pro athletes train, utilizing compound exercises that take the body through all the key movement patterns.
-
Your priority is completing and giving your best effort to the 3 workouts in the plan. We like to follow the high/low model - a high stress day followed by a low stress day. So doing things like:
walking
drilling
hiking
yoga
pilates
swimming
light cardio
This is the time to add in things that enjoy (especially if you don’t enjoy training) because we want your routine to give you life, not be a chore.
-
I have designed this program with the ability to be scaled and modified for most home gym setups. If you have:
Barbell, Dumbbells, Kettlebells, Bands, Medicine Ball, TRX, and a Bench then you will be able to do everything as prescribed.
BUT we have designed alternate exercises so that you can get the same benefits with:
Dumbbells, Bands, Medicine Ball, and a Bench.
-
Each week consists of 5 workouts - 3 high intent workouts and 2 low intensity mobility sessions. The exact days you do the workout is up to you, so don’t feel pressured to stick to a rigid routine if you have a busy schedule. Ideally, you will have a lower intent session (off day or mobility) in between your high intensity sessions. In a perfect world, your strength sessions would fall on Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday.
If you need to train on consecutive days, you can. It isn’t the perfect model but within this program we plan accordingly so that it is acceptable.
If life gets busy and you have to miss a scheduled workout for whatever reason, don’t skip that workout entirely. Just pick up where you left off and keep going. If you only get two workouts in one week, just start with the 3rd workout on the next week.
-
Exercise should NOT hurt. If something hurts, you shouldn’t be doing it. If one of my athletes has an injury, I refer them to a physical therapist or a doctor to treat the injury and we will work around the injury.
Seek medical help from a qualified and trusted professional, and when it comes to the workouts, focus on what you can do without pain.
