Helping athletes grow stronger, move better, and build confidence.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Nicholas Womble is the Head Coach and Owner of XV XIII Performance, bringing over a decade of experience training athletes from middle school through the professional level. His coaching approach emphasizes proper movement mechanics, long-term athletic development, and injury prevention.The name XV XIII Performance is inspired by John 15:13 — “No greater love than this,” reflecting Nicholas’s heart for service and his commitment to training the whole athlete—mind, body, soul, and spirit.Nicholas earned a BS in Sports and Exercise Science and an MS in Applied Exercise Physiology from the University of Central Florida, where he also served as a graduate assistant. He later interned with Clemson University’s Olympic Sports Strength and Conditioning Department and is a USAW Level 1 Certified Olympic Weightlifting Coach. Now based in Melbourne, Florida, Nicholas leads XV XIII Performance with purpose, integrity, and care.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our primary focus is teaching proper movement mechanics to support long-term performance and injury prevention. We believe mastering technique before adding load is essential for safe, effective training.

  • We stress technique for the safety of our athletes to allow for strength and power improvements

  • Increase power production with Olympic movements (clean and jerk and snatch) and plyometrics.

  • Use core lifts and their variants (squat, bench, deadlift, overhead press, pull-up) to increase strength

  • Large emphasis on unilateral training with accessory movements

  • All 3 planes of motion will be trained

  • Variety of core exercises used to build an adequate foundation to move more weight efficiently and decrease the likelihood of injury

  • Speed and agility will be improved with an emphasis on proper running, jumping, and landing mechanics

  • Improve all areas of conditioning (aerobic and anaerobic threshold)
