“My team started training at Endeavor 4 weeks ago and I already see a difference on the field. I run a pretty high tempo practice. Not only do my girls look faster at the beginning of the practice, but they’re still moving at the same speed at the end. In just 4 sessions, their athleticism AND confidence have grown tremendously.  The improvements in their speed and endurance have surpassed any of my expectations.

As a coach, it’s so great to go to the field knowing that my players’ speed and conditioning work is already taken care of. Now I can spend the entire practice developing skills and tactics. What more can a coach ask for?”

Rodney Reyes, Head Coach Glassboro Breeze


“We can’t say enough good things about Endeavor Sports Performance and their training staff.   Kevin Neeld and his group have been training our son for only 3 months and we have noticed significant improvements in his strength, confidence and most importantly his performance.  I am very impressed with their attention to detail and the individual time they give to each athlete making sure they understand how to properly perform each exercise.  

Our son is very happy with the results so far and he looks forward to coming to the gym.  I would highly recommend Endeavor to any athlete looking to improve his performance and gain an edge on his/her competition!”

Ron Deysher, Delaware Ducks 12AA


"Our 11 year old son Dan has been training with Kevin Neeld at Endeavor for the past seven months.  He plays travel baseball and basketball and his athleticism and confidence has improved while training there.  The training methods at Endeavor are age appropriate which is imporant to the development of young athletes.

Our son is very happy with the results so far and really looks forward to going to the gym.  We have been very happy with Kevin and the staff at Endeavor and highly recommend them."

Lorraine and Joe Tracy, Washington Township, NJ


"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)


"I've been working out with Kevin Neeld and his staff at Endeavor Sports Performance on improving my golf game and the results have been phenomenal.  I've seen marked increases in strength, flexibility, and core stability that have enabled me to hit the golf ball farther, straighter and more consistently.

Futhermore, Kevin has designed a workout that has not only improved my golf game but also achieved my general health goals like losing weight, gaining strength and looking better.

Kevin and his staff create a positive culture that makes it fun to go to the gym.  They're knowledgable, motivating and are focused on helping you achieve your goals.

In the competitive market of strength & conditioning and sports performance training, Kevin Neeld and Endeavor Sports Performance are rising stars and I'd strongly recommend working with them- NOW!"

Jeff Swetland, Little Mill C.C. Member


"After 6 weeks of training, I can honestly say my daughter is stronger than ever! When we first came to Endeavor, she was suffering from pretty significant pain in her knee from Osgood-Schlatter. Not only was she in pain, but it was affecting the way she ran. As a result of her training, the pain in her knees has disappeared and she’s running better than ever. We look forward to continuing the relationship with your facility in the months to come. To the entire Endeavor Staff, thank you for your diligence and unwavering commitment to helping your athletes succeed."

Mike Thompson, Philadelphdia Belles


“Since Brianna has been training with Endeavor Sports Performance her overall strength, conditioning and endurance have dramatically improved.  As soon as the spring soccer season started we noticed significant improvement in her ability to move on the soccer field.  

One of the most noticeable improvements was in her confidence. She was not only physically  faster and stronger, but mentally she felt faster and stronger.  

I would personally recommend Endeavor Sports Performance to anyone looking to improved the overall physical and mental conditioning of any young athlete.  On top of that Endeavor has a first class training facility with some of the best trainers in the industry, not simply because they are certified, but because they care.”

Paul Donahue, Head Coach Harrison SC Charge


“The Hockey Training led by Kevin Neeld at Endeavor Sports Performance 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)


“I was extremely lucky to be able to train at Endeavor Sports Performance 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)

Yesterday I discussed some of the best ways to rapidly shed fat in the new year. If you haven't read that yet, read it now (New Year's Fat Loss Secrets) and then come back to this post.

Some of you may have been upset by the way that post ended, but hear me out.

Alwyn Cosgrove, Co-Owner of Results Fitness in Santa Clarita, CA, is the world's foremost expert in strategies to rapidly shed fat. How rapid? Many of his clients drop 1-3 pounds of FAT (not weight...fat) per week. Think about that. That means that 3 months of dedicated training could have you 36 pounds of fat leaner!

I recently had the pleasure of hearing one of Alwyn's presentations on his fat loss strategies at one of my favorite websites: StrengthandConditioningWebinars.com.

Alwyn accurately noted that, of the calories we burn everyday, 10% result from digesting and processing food, 20-30% result from our daily activity, and 60-70% of the calories we burn comes from our resting metabolic rate (the expense of keeping us alive and functioning).

Wouldn't it make sense to do whatever it takes to increase our resting metabolic rate?

More on that in a later post.

With consideration to some of yesterday's comments, let's address some of the most commonly accepted myths about fat loss:

Myth: Eating less calories than you burn off results in fat loss.
Fact: This scenario may lead to WEIGHT loss, but frequently leads to muscle loss, which is never what you want.

Myth: Burning 3500 calories results in 1lb of fat loss.
Fact 1: Meal frequency matters. If you eat the same number of calories, but spread them out across more meals, you'll lose more fat. Similarly, switching from eating more meals to less meals will result in fat gain!

Fact 2: Eating meals on a regular schedule (same times everyday), results in more fat loss than irregular eating (despite the total calories being equal).

Fact 3: Eating breakfast is associated with lower body fat levels. One 8-month study showed that the group that consumed a 300 calorie breakfast lost 10 lbs of fat, while the group that consumed a 600 calorie breakfast lost 39 lbs of fat. Eat a big breakfast; you need more fuel at the beginning of the day and it'll jumpstart your metabolism in the morning.

Myth: A calorie is a calorie. All calories are created equal.
Fact: Low carbohydrate diets result in more fat loss and a better retention rate (people stay on them longer) compared to low fat diets.

I know that's a lot to digest so I'll cut it off there. Tomorrow I'll post a long list of supplement and training myths and the facts you need to know to help you start burning fat instantly.
