putting in work with Coach Chris in HB Alexandria since last winter showing dedication by showing up for sessions both in the afternoon and as early as 6am.

Becoming a better athlete isn’t just about your performance—it’s about the community you create along the way.

Blair O’Donovan, founder of Healthy Baller, has been training athletes in the DMV for over 20 years. He’s worked with major events like the Jordan Brand Classic and Nike Skills Academy Camps, and Nike’s All-Asia Camps in China.
He’s helped local teams like Montrose Christian and Gonzaga College High School excel. And it was here that he met a talented sophomore named Wes Dunning. At Hampton University, Wes played at the Division 1 level from 2009-2013 and won the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) tournament and the NCAA March Madness “Big Dance” tournament championships.
After playing at Hampton and gaining experience as a strength and conditioning intern, Wes reconnected with Blair in 2015. In 2018, while Blair worked with the Washington Wizards as Director of Player Preparation, Wes created the HB Hoopers program to help high school and college players stay sharp in the offseason and return to the court at their best.
In 2020, Blair returned to Healthy Baller full-time and teamed up with Wes to grow the HB Hoopers program throughout all of the Healthy baller locations. All of our basketball players can expect a well-rounded experience that goes beyond just the workouts, which helps our athletes improve their skills, strength and overall game no matter what time of the year.
It’s a comprehensive basketball athletic development program designed to help you become the best, most well-rounded athlete you can be. You’ll work on speed and power drills, strength and conditioning, and agility training to take your performance to a new level.
We focus on overall athleticism as well as power development, lateral speed work, strength, and basketball-specific conditioning. This approach ensures you’re not only improving your baseline fitness, but you’ll be ready for anything on the court.
