Runnin' Ref: Strength and Condition Content made to keep you in shape

With over a decade of experience coaching strength & conditioning at some of the top athletic programs in the country, Austin Ardrey has worked with athletes across every level—from walk-ons to future pros. But through it all, he saw one thing missing: training made just for referees.

So he built Runnin’ Ref—the only fitness program designed specifically for sports officials.

Austin knows the grind firsthand: long travel, quick turnarounds, high-pressure games, and zero room for injury. That’s why his program helps refs:

• Prevent those nagging injuries that derail a season
• Build real, game-ready endurance and power
• Increase speed, agility, and strength without wasted time
• Show up confident, sharp, and looking the part

Whether you’re climbing the ladder to varsity, college, or pro-level games, Austin’s mission is clear: help you become the official evaluators trust and remember.

Because if the players train like pros, so should you.
