MPF Testimonials

Last year was the first year I can remember having and injury free season. MPF Training Systems and their training methods helped us get to # 5 in the state with 4 National Champions, 2 of which were undefeated in two different weight classes. This is the strongest and best conditioned our team has been. I highly recommend Joe and MPF Training Systems!

There are trainers that pretend to know what they are doing and then there are those that are highly skilled professionals that produce results. How can you tell which of the two that you have? I knew that I had the latter when my 14 year old exercise lazy/computer nerd son begged me to return him to MPF Training Systems. I immediately scheduled another set of session. On a serious note, MPF developed specialized training programs that catered to both of my sons who have different physiques and sporting needs. They were trained during the same session with routines that were selected for the form and type of athlete that each is and the results were incredible!
MPF worked perfectly for our family where they accommodated for one son who has Osgood Schlatter and another who was recovering from a possible career-ending injury. Joe of MPF chose each of their programs based upon the sports they were doing, their position, the location and type of injury situation both had and also included routines that Joe felt both boys needed to become sound and successful athletes.
My son Khalid has been suffering from a major case of Osgood Schlatter that not only affected his knees but many other areas of his body. Over the past 4 years he has had effusion/avulsion, hip, wrist and growth plate fractures, pulled muscles, tendonitis, fasciitis, etc. – all due to his growing too fast during a small time frame. It is very frustrating for a kid not to be able to walk without pulling, tearing or breaking something. But after starting summer training with MPF in 2009, Khalid has been injury free. Joe provided Khalid with a specialized stretching and strengthening program where for the first time in 4 years Khalid is able to participate in sports again - INJURY FREE. Not only that, Khalid loves his buff body and has successfully fulfilled his goal of dunking a basketball. Thank you Joe!
My other son (Malik) was skinny and has been out of sports for the 2009 and part of the 2010 season due to an injury. Joe developed a specialized training program that helped him re-build and recover and gain muscle mass that fits his framework. Malik is very proud of his manly physique and so are the girls! I can’t thank you for that one Joe.
I recommend MPF training for any sport that your kids are involved in for they have the expertise, time and knowledge that will amaze you. I recommend MPL for anyone who would like to stay in shape. MPL is not just good for recovery for I have seen some of their other clients and I see the same positive results for those seeking physical advancement. Consider it an investment to work with MPF – one that you will see a return on your money sooner and better than you would on Wall street!

I started to training with MPF Training Systems in July 2009 when I started I was 260 and I was playing football in high school I was not the greatest shape and my performance was down due to my weight. I was running a 6.7 40 yard dash and my bench was only a 130lbs and I never was taught to squat properly. By the end of the summer I had dropped thirty pounds. By the end of the summer and due to my weight loss, I had dropped my 40 yard dash to 6.1 and was taught proper sprint mechanics. I kept training with MPF Training Systems throughout my sports. By going to them has helped keep injury free and has showed that hard work really pays off! I now play Varsity Lacrosse as a starter and as of now I weigh 206lbs, run a 5.4 40 and bench a solid 245lbs and in the best shape I have been in my life. I think if it wasn’t for MPF Training Systems I would be headed down a road with health issues and sports injuries. They have changed me from weighing 260lbs to 206lbs in less than a year!

The Role of a Strength and Conditioning Coach
The Strength and Conditioning Coach is responsible for improving an athlete's performance and preventing common sports related injuries. By determining the strengths and weaknesses of an athlete, a training program is devised to enhance performance and correct imbalances and deficiencies which may lead to injury.
Technical Skill v/s Athletic Skill

Participation in sports requires a blend of technical skills and athletic skills. The exact amount of each is dependent on the sport and level of competition. Technical skills, such as throwing for the baseball player or shooting for the lacrosse player, are required explicitly by each sport. Between tournaments, leagues, games and practices, technical skills are, at times, practiced 5-6 days per week for the greater part of the calendar year. Athletic skills such as power, strength, flexibility, balance, speed and agility are required by all sports but their role and level of importance in each sport will vary. Athletic skills training will enhance the execution of technical skills, increase performance and prevent injury.
