Coach Jacob Netral
Sports Performance Coach | Marian University Sports Performance Graduate | National Champion Competitor
Jacob Netral brings a rare mix to Freak Performance: the mind of a trained performance professional and the edge of an elite-level competitor. A graduate of Marian University with a Bachelor of Science in Sports Performance, Jacob built his foundation while competing as a full-time track and field athlete—learning what it takes to train with structure, stay consistent, and show up when the moment demands it. Since 2022, he’s coached athletes in both one-on-one sessions and group training environments, helping a wide range of ages and ability levels build real, measurable improvement.
Built on Competition + Craft
Jacob’s coaching is shaped by the standards he lived as an athlete: disciplined preparation, repeatable execution, and progress that holds up under pressure. He blends strength development, speed mechanics, and power training with the details that separate serious athletes from average ones—movement quality, clean technique, and a system athletes can trust over time.
Multi-Sport Experience that Transfers
Jacob has coached and supported athletes across multiple sports, including rugby, baseball, softball, track and field, wrestling, and football. That range matters because it gives him the ability to adapt quickly—understanding different movement demands while still building the universal qualities every athlete needs: speed, strength, power, and durability.
The Throwing Background
Precision Coaching for Power Athletes
In addition to general sports performance training, Jacob has specialized experience coaching shot put and discus. That background strengthens his ability to coach power production with precision—how force is generated, transferred, and expressed through the body. For athletes who need explosiveness, control, and repeatable mechanics, his expertise shows up fast.
