Every once in awhile, you have the pleasure — honor, really — to make an acquaintance with someone on the far right of the greatness curve. In my walk through the world of peak performance strength sports, that would be Murph! I have known Murph for decades. I have watched almost everything he has done in the field of strength, and in coaching strength athletes. No one does it better. No one does it with more passion. And, no one will make such a punctuation mark in your life as this mega-personality!
Definitely go to Total Performance Sports! Just look around. One of the best training facilities I have ever seen awaits you. Few have the knowledge or wisdom to build such a facility, let alone train elite athletes, kids and little old ladies alike with such amazing results. This will change your entire life, I assure you!
Recently, I conducted a strength seminar at TPS, and Murph filled the aerobics gym with over 200 people from all walks of life. He is an icon in his home town, that’s for sure! You’re gonna love stopping by!

It seems like athletic and strength trainers are a dime a dozen these days. Every where you look people are claiming to be trainers. Seems like all you have to do is take a few classes, a seminar, or some certification and all the sudden your a strength trainer. As you can guess most of these so call trainers are horrible.
Any trainer worth is weight has taken his own advice. He can back his theories and skills with his own results. He is or has been an athlete and he has had success in his sport. You may learn some things in the classroom or lecture hall but the real learning begins with real life experience. For this reason I trust C.J Murphy and Total Performance Sports.
Murph has walked the walk and talked the talk. He has pushed his body to the limit in strength sports. He has trained and competed with the best of the best. He has trained athletes to results you can see. Murph has learned from his own experience and being an athlete, he has learned from other top athletes and he has learned from training countless clients. This knowledge he has earned through a lifetime of training his butt off. Its real world knowledge, not some BS some skinny guy made up in a classroom. Murph has the knowledge, dedication, and love of training to help anyone achieve their goals.
Total Performance Sports is the perfect place to achieve your goals. Its a no nonsense training facility set up for people to get results. Its not a gym made to look pretty and full of useless machines. Its a training facility designed specifically with everything you need to acheive whatever your goal is. All you have to bring is a good work ethic, dedication, and the ability to listen to great coach like Murph.

C.J. Murphy is an outstanding and enthusiastic coach with an impressive diversity of skills/knowledge. If you are in the Boston area, his gym is the place to go! Conventional training, unconventional training…they have it all!
Molly Galbraith
Murph and his crew at Total Performance Sports are absolutely top notch. From strongman competitors and powerlifters to someone who has never stepped foot in a gym, these guys get their clients results the results they are looking for, and help them reach their goals in the quickest way possible. Murph is 100%, absolutely, no-questions-asked… the real deal.
Julia Ladewski
CJ Murphy has an extensive background with strongman, powerlifting, kettlebells, strength, you name it. I’ve seen Murph work with folks who are total beginners and folks who are top level competitors. His eye for detail is second to none. No matter what your goals, TPS is a place that will get you to where you want to be!
Jason Ferrugia
C.J. Murphy walks the walk and knows how to deliver REAL results. With over 25 years of coaching experience he’s seen it all and done it all. If you want to get strong and be truly fit, do exactly what he says.
Matt Kroc
CJ Murphy is a household name in the strength and conditioning world and for good reason. He has over two decades of experience working with people ranging from world class powerlifters and strongmen to middle aged soccer moms. Regardless of your back ground and goals CJ has been there and done that.
Sean Hyson
I have C.J. Murphy’s number on speed dial, and there’s hardly a week that goes by where I don’t email him. Why is this? Am I needy? Am I a stalker? Do I just have a fetish for big, muscular guys with goatees? All of the above are probably true, but the main reason is that Murph is among the absolute best at what he does. He’s got more experience than practically any other coach I know, and his knowledge is second to none. But above all, it’s his passion for helping people get stronger and better at whatever they choose that impresses me most. I love this guy.

When it comes to giving fitness recommendations, I am a snob! Without hesitation, I can recommend CJ Murphy and TPS for the serious strength athlete or someone that has the desire to train hard and wants results but needs the tools—CJ and TPS possess the tools. The gym is equipped with all of the proven basics and updated with advancements that work and are proven by exercise science and do not succumb to exercise fashion. If you are in Boston—you are crazy to not train at TPS—I cannot recommend it enough.

I have known Murph from TPS for getting close to 10 years now. He has helped me on numerous occasions with nutritional programs with his no nonsense approach to things. He lays it out simple so everyone can get it and understand it. I had a lot of questions in particular on one session with the diet plan , we went back and forth on emails a lot but it wasn’t sinking in right. He called me and we got it down. It is hard to find coaches who will take the time to call you to make sure you get it. I appreciated this a lot and has kept me getting coaching help from him. The facility has tons of room and all the equipment anyone who wants to train anything serious can do, Murph keeps adding to this too staying on top of the newest ideas and bringing them into a usable format for everyone. I can go on but you get the point! Thanks Murph!
