Curtis Jackson, president and co-owner of Jackson Strength, is in his first season as the virtual strength coach for the Warriors women’s volleyball program.
A highly sought after strength coach, Jackson has worked with Olympians as well as hundreds of the top youth athletes in Greater San Diego. He is the author of the book, “Strength Training for Volleyball” and is also the Strength and Conditioning expert for DiG Beach Volleyball Magazine.
As an athlete, Jackson played collegiate volleyball at Long Beach State where he helped lead the 49ers to the 1999 championship game. He also played professionally for three years on the country’s premier domestic beach volleyball tour, the AVP.
Jackson holds certifications from The National Association of Sports Medicine, The Poliquin International Certification Program, USA Weightlifting, The CHEK Institute, and has completed the Elite Baseball Mentorship at Cressey Performance.
He is extremely passionate about learning and credits this for his success in the strength and conditioning field. As an athlete, Jackson dealt with chronic knee pain and two knee surgeries. This is the main reason why he is also very passionate about keeping youth athletes healthy and off the surgeon’s table.
