DAY 1. THE DREAM.
The idea for Hefley’s Hard Knocks Training came to me while driving down a dirt backroad in my hometown of Riverton, Kansas—a small town tucked away in the southeast corner of the state with one stoplight and a gas station.
As I was driving home one day, I saw a young boy in his front yard throwing a football up into the air by himself.
When he caught it, I knew exactly what he was imagining.
A touchdown.
That moment stuck with me.
Because I know there are thousands of athletes growing up in small towns with the ability to play at the next level—but they may not know the process.
They may not know how to train.
They may not understand college recruiting.
They may not have access to the right resources.
And they may not have unlimited money to spend on expensive training.
I understand that.
My journey started with almost no money in my pocket and a beat-up squat rack that I personally owned.
Then a father approached me and asked if I could help his son become stronger and faster for baseball.
That was the beginning.
Five years later, after thousands of training sessions and countless hours of hard work, that young man is now playing college baseball.
And he is not the only one.
Over the years, I have helped athletes reach the Division I, Division II, junior college, and NAIA levels.
But none of them got there by simply doing what everyone else was doing.
The work has to go beyond the school program.
Hefley’s Hard Knocks Training is built on the same principles I used to compete at the highest levels of college football:
Consistency.
Hard work.
Discipline.
Understanding the process.
Showing up when it’s hard.
I can’t promise every athlete a scholarship.
I can’t promise every athlete will play Division I.
But I can promise this:
If you are willing to work, I will work with you.
I am based in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area, offering private and small-group training starting at $35.
But you don’t have to live in Tulsa to get started.
I also offer online training programs and athlete development plans, meaning I can work with athletes no matter where they live.
Whether you’re from Tulsa, Oklahoma, a small town in Kansas, or somewhere across the country—if you have a dream but don’t know where to start, just reach out.
You don’t have to have everything figured out.
You don’t have to know which program is right for you.
You don’t have to understand the recruiting process.
We’ll figure out the next step together.
You bring the dream.
You bring the work ethic.
I’ll bring the experience, the relationships, and the process.
Together, we’ll put you in the best position possible to become impossible to overlook.
I came from a small town.
I know what it’s like to have a dream bigger than your circumstances.
And I believe every athlete deserves a shot—as long as they are willing to work.
From the ground up.
