“I was extremely lucky to be able to train at Endeavor Fitness this summer.  Endeavor was recommended to me by a friend and it was everything that I was looking for.  I knew that I needed to get stronger and faster and without a doubt Kevin Neeld has done that for me.  I had a posterior shoulder dislocation several years ago, which is a pretty rare injury.  The surgery has significantly limited my range of motion and strength on that side.  Kevin was able to pinpoint my limitations and help modify my training program, which is something most trainers can’t do.  My shoulders are now stronger than ever.  I also lost over 5 lbs of fat, while still putting on some muscle mass.   Being able to train with professional hockey players every day really drove me to work as hard as possible.  With Kevin designing some amazing training programs I have developed the strength and speed I need to perform well in my first professional season.”

Mike Gershon, Port Huron IceHawks (IHL)


“The Hockey Training lead by Kevin Neeld at Endeavor Fitness has helped me reach goals throughout the summer that were beyond my expectations. Since Day 1 I have left the facility feeling stronger and more confident. The attention to detail and the workouts have made me stronger mentally and physically. After 3 months of training I can already feel drastic improvements in my quickness and speed on the ice. I have never felt results like this in 5 years of training! 

Endeavor is one of the only gyms in the world that has all the resources for me to improve every aspect of my game.  The synthetic ice and skating treadmill have helped me improve my shot as well as lengthen my stride and skate at speeds I couldn’t quite push myself to on the ice.

Kevin was great about changing my training program to accommodate my individual needs.  I went through a serious tendon surgery in April that I thought would delay my training drastically.  Following surgery, Kevin set up a specific program for me that would not cause any harm to my thumb and still allowed me to get stronger and train for the upcoming season.  In previous years I would train all summer and develop back pain that made it difficult to keep up with my program.  At Endeavor I haven’t had back pain all summer because of the extensive core work and strengthening of specific surrounding muscles.  After a summer of hockey-specific lifting and conditioning at Endeavor, I feel like I am prepared to compete against professional hockey players.

Without Jared Beach and Kevin Neeld’s passion for the game of hockey, education, and coaching experience I don’t believe I would be where I am today.  I can’t stress enough how incredible Endeavor has been for me.  I would highly recommend it to any athlete striving to play at an elite-level.”

Eric Tangradi, Pittsburgh Penguins (NHL)


“Endeavor Fitness is a top of the line facility and an incredible training environment. As a current Endeavor client, I look forward to training everyday alongside other elite athletes and under awesome coaches.  Whether you're looking to train for an upcoming sports season or just shred some pounds, Endeavor is the place you want to be!”

Kyle Smith, University of New Hampshire (NCAA D1)


"Endeavor has the best facility, programs, and coaches around. If you play hockey and aren't training there you're crazy."

James Van Riemsdyk, Philadelphia Flyers (NHL)

Nothing will predict your success more than the strength of your commitment to achieving your goal. Stated in another way, your success will be determined by your refusal to accept anything else.

Whether your goal is to make a new team, dominate during a sport season, or drop some body fat and “tone” up for the Summer, ask yourself, “How bad do I want it?”

Too many people “want” something, but aren’t willing to put in the time and effort it takes to get it. These are the people that will likely have a LONG list of excuses at the tip of their tongue for why they aren’t working hard or smart enough. If they spent half as much time training as they did justifying their laziness, they’d probably get the results they want!

Of course, this is not true of everyone. A month ago we had someone commute up from Baltimore, Maryland to train with us once a week. Living in Baltimore myself, I’m fully aware of how long and laborious that commute is (in excess of 2 hours). This was an athlete that understands the sacrifice it takes to be successful.

Starting this week, another athlete will be making a nearly 2-hour commute THREE times per week to train with us. Why? He wants to prepare for tryouts. NOTHING will stop him from entering those tryouts more prepared than anyone else. Nothing.

A couple days ago I spoke with a 15 year old athlete that said he was going to get a part time job to pay for training himself if his parents couldn’t afford it. He’s ready to take his game to the next level.

I have a high level of admiration for these individuals.  We could all learn something from them.

What’s your reason for not investing in your success with our RESULTS GUARANTEED training?

Too far? Not enough time? Too much money?

The truly dedicated find ways to conquer these barriers. They don’t stumble upon success. They hunt it down and tackle it. Nothing will stop them. Learn from them. Even better. Become one of them.

We can help. Call me at (856) 269-4148 or click here to email me for information on how you can start achieving your goals today.

To your success,

Kevin Neeld

Last week, the Philadelphia Wings (the Philadelphia-based pro lacrosse team) featured an article I wrote called "The Best Exercise to Build Strong, Fast Legs".

You can check it out here: The Best Exercise to Build Strong, Fast Legs

I think most people will be surprised about "the best exercise." It's not a squat. It's not a leg press. But it does work.

P.S. With seasons wrapping up, motivated hockey players are already contacting us to schedule their off-season training sessions. I have no doubt that these are the players that will excel next season. With the right training, players can COMPLETELY re-invent themselves over a single off-season. If you're ready to truly take your game to the next level, click here to send me an email so we can get you started immediately.

With the ridiculous amount of snow we've acquired over the last couple weeks, it seems like everyone I've talked to is suffering from back pain.  Repetitive bending and twisting with a shovel full of snow will do that to you!

There's an easy way to prevent this back pain forever: Pay someone to shovel for you!
...or buy a snow blower. They're expensive, but so are days missed from work due to back pain and a life time of anti-inflammatory use.

For those of you (myself included) that did the shoveling yourself and are in pain, sore, or generally worn down, I have a solution for you:

Get a massage from the top massage therapists in the country!

My good friend Craig Bohn is the Director of the Massage Department at Hockession Athletic Club. Having been to several manual therapists all over the East Coast, and studied multiple forms of manual therapy myself, I can personally attest that Craig and the incredible therapists on his staff, are the absolute best out there.

At different times, I've gone into
Hockession Athletic Club with shoulder pain, neck pain, back pain, and knee pain and come out feeling a new man. I've also referred several people there that said they've gotten the best massage they've ever had in their lives there.

I wish they had an office at Endeavor. Until I'm able to convince them to set one up, MAKE THE TRIP! I've driven down there from Endeavor and up to there from my house in Baltimore. If they only had one facility and it was located in Boise, Idaho, I'd find a way to get there too.

You owe it to yourself to invest in your own health and well-being. You do it by working hard here at Endeavor. Now do it by treating yourself to a massage from the best massage therapists in the country.

If you have any questions about
Hockession Athletic Club or my experiences there, please do not hesitate to email me.

If you're ready to start feeling better today, send Craig an email or call him at (302) 239-6688 and schedule an appointment today!

To your health and well-being,

Kevin Neeld

P.S. Craig also has experience working with elite level body builders and boxers. Massage isn't just for people that want to relax. It's always an incredibly valuable, but under-recognized way to get an advantage for athletes and body builders!

On Monday afternoon, following a weekend where he put up 9 pts in 4 games, '93 John Gaudreau committed to Northeastern University for 2012.  John has been a member of the Endeavor family since Endeavor opened, and has played for the Endeavor Selects for the past two summers. He will once again help the '93s this summer as they compete in the Hub Cup and the EJHL Summer Showcase. 

This season, John competed in the Tier 1 Elite League for Team Comcast u18 AAA, and had tremendous success in his first year at this level.  In 42 games thus far, John has 50 pts on 26 goals and 24 assissts.  Team Comcast u18 also competes in the Atlantic League where John has helped lead his team to a berth in the District finals.  In 16 games in the Atlantic League, John has 13 goals and 13 assists for 26 pts.  Considering John is a young '93 competing against many of the top '91s and '92s in the country, 39 goals and 37 assists in 58 games is quite the accomplishment! 

We wish John all the best as he continues on to the next level!
