Who We Are

Preparation Fitness is a Northern Virginia development-first basketball training program built to help young athletes rise with confidence. We combine detailed skill work, intentional sports performance training, and a mindset-driven approach that teaches players to take ownership of their future.

Preparation Fitness was founded by Genesis Parker, a former ESPN Top-100 recruit whose journey shaped everything this program stands for.

Genesis dominated in high school, trained relentlessly, and earned a Division I scholarship. But in college, she faced limited playing time, injury, and the mental weight of the grind.

An ACL tear, transfer, and the lack of mental support shifted her entire perspective. She didn’t want young athletes to struggle alone the way she did. She wanted to build what she needed back then: a mentor, a trainer, and a steady voice that stays with them beyond the court.

Training her first two players reignited her love for basketball and basketball training. Their work ethic, growth, and joy brought her back to the game, and sparked the vision for Preparation Fitness.

Today, Genesis uses her experience, discipline, and quiet confidence to prepare athletes early, fully, and intentionally, long before the pressure hits.
