Who is Nathan Jones?

Nathan Jones is the co-owner of Elevation Athletic Performance, a semi-private strength and conditioning facility in Cassville, Missouri, where he trains athletes and adults alongside his wife, Johnica. They started Elevation in their garage and have grown it into a 4,800-square-foot facility focused on group strength and conditioning for athletes, one-on-one coaching both in person and online, and sport skill development with an emphasis on baseball. Elevation’s ethos is to “meet you where you are” and help you reach your training goals, with a strong culture of accountability and buy-in rather than quick fixes.

Nathan’s background includes heavy influence from Westside-style powerlifting methods early in his career, which shaped his focus on strength numbers and high-intensity environments. Over time, he’s shifted toward a blended systems approach and now prioritizes getting to know each athlete and tailoring methods to the individual rather than forcing everyone through the same template.
