About Us.
I'm Wade Houchin, owner of 289 Sports Performance. I’m extremely excited to serve Celina and the surrounding areas to help athletes maximize their sports performance goals!
I’m a follower of Christ, husband, and father of 4 children. I carry an immense passion for training athletes and applying the most effective methods in the industry for holistic athletic performance.
At 289 Sports Performance, we pride ourselves on training both the body and the brain to optimize human performance. In doing so, we overthrow the status quo of outdated, ineffective, and unsafe methodologies that remain far too prevalent in our industry.
As a long time high school football coach, former college football player and gym owner, I understand the demands of sport and the intangibles that athletes must possess to compete at their utmost potential. Performance training is a key piece of that puzzle and many athletes simply don’t have access to a quality training experience.
I’m a life-long learner that is always seeking an edge to provide unique and proven methodologies to the health and wellness industry. ​It is my mission to consistently pursue knowledge and innovation in order to add value to my present skillset. I build my philosophy on timeless truths and a refusal to settle for the “Status Quo”.
289 Sports Performance is for the truly disciplined athlete and family who understands the importance of sports performance for increased athletic performance and injury reduction. You don’t have to be an elite athlete to train here with us, we’ll meet you where you are and elevate you from there!
You show up and do the work and we absolutely guarantee results!
Overthrow the Status Quo!
