Great first session!!! I've been running track for years but Coach LeJerald has already pointed out techniques that I can use to my advantage. I'm looking forward to the next training session with him!
Clarice (CoachUp client)
Coach LeJerald worked so well with our son, Michael. He was thorough and supportive. We look forward to a great track season working with him!
Reginald (CoachUp client)
Very good first session with LeJerald. My daughter really wasnt looking forward to her track session but LeJerald made it fun and she learned a lot in just one session. He also gave her some good life lessons to follow. Looking forward to future sessions with LeJerald.
Kim (CoachUp client)
Coach LeJerald was absolutely amazing! He worked with our daughter not only on the physical part of track but the complete mental aspect of the sport! He taught her little things that could be done to help her improve her sport! It was awesome to see how he could make such an impact in such little time! We are definitely booking more sessions with Coach LeJerald!
Scott (CoachUp client)
LeJerald is that rare combination of coach, motivator and world-class athlete. My wife and I love to go to my son's sessions so we can listen to LeJerald's motivational talks and life lessons.
LeJerald breaks a race down and explains how each segment should be run most effectively. He explains things in simple terms, and varies his wording to make sure you understand exactly how to run. He will also refine your running form and breathing techniques. His workouts are based on collegiate level (or higher) training, however, he constantly monitors how you are doing physically. In short, he can improve any athletes performance regardless of age or skill level.
My son was a varsity track athlete for three years and made it to state each year. He began working with LeJerald after the first meet of his senior year. Before the season was over, he had taken over 2 seconds off of his 400m and was running personal bests in the 200m. He has accepted an offer to run at the collegiate level, and is continuing to work with LeJerald.

Great first session!
Pepe (CoachUp client)
Great coach. Very knowledgeable and good communicator.
Candace (CoachUp client)
LeJerald has the exact qualifications that I was looking for in a track and field coach. I wanted someone who is personable so that he and my son had a good connection and could relate to each other. LeJerald has become a true mentor to my son. I required someone with direct experience, not someone knowledgeable in general fitness or someone who has coached the sport. LeJerald is actually a world-class athlete who has competed in this arena. Most importantly, I wanted someone who had specific knowledge into the intricacies into track and field. Without exception, my son has learned something new each workout with LeJerald that has directly improved his results in practice and competition. LeJerald is a positive, easy-going, hard-working, humble, and, mostly, fun young man. We are so happy to be working with him!

Kaila (CoachUp client)
Lejerald is great. Just a few things that I appreciated about him was he actually ran with me during my workout. He was so motivational and enthusiastic is was contagious. He is very experienced and qualified in track & field and helped me in many areas such as breathing, long jump, form, etc. He was always on time, a gentleman, and a lot of fun to train with. He was an awesome personal trainer.
Ernest (CoachUp client)
Coach LeJerald has been great in getting my son Ernest ready for track and field at his middle school. He has taught him alot and has been very patient with Ernest and I have seen a big improvement in how Ernest runs. I definitely will continue to have Coach LeJerald as my son's track and football coach to develop him and make him faster and mature with his training habits. 6 STARS
Lyle (CoachUp client)
Only if you're interested in making your track athlete the best they can possibly be, should you consider Coach LeJerald.He has shown my son more in two training sessions then he's learned in 2 years. He is literally a world class track star with a mind blowing resume and he knows how to get results. He has broken my sons races down to a molecular level and has equipped him with the tools to reach beyond his goals. He is a very positive coach and is absolutely honest in his analysis. He uses drills and exercises specifically designed to improve my sons weaknesses and discusses ways to improve throughout the week. He keeps in constant contact and has an amazingly detailed plan for the next session, never wasting a second.I trust Coach LeJerald with my son's future and I recommend him for any track athlete that really wants to become as good as they can possibly can be.
Shari (CoachUp client)
We are so lucky to be training with Coach LeJerald, he is an amazing coach in every aspect. My daughter has learned so much in only 2 sessions. He teaches by example and explains everything. We will continue to work with Coach LeGerald on a weekly basis.
Daron (CoachUp client)
LeJerald's extensive knowledge and experience competing and winning in NCAA Div I Championship track meets around the country has been the best experience for us as parents and for my daughter! LeJerald takes the time to go through every aspect of conditioning drills, developmental skills, warm ups, stretching, running and jumping techniques, exercise drills, cool down methods and the science of the body to provide our daughter the best instructions and techniques to improve her speed and jumping skills, so she has the ability to compete for a college scholarship. He's very detailed and spends the time to prepare workouts, warm ups and provides excellent feedback for strengths and improvements. We are very pleased with the coaching sessions and we will continue to use his coaching experience throughout the high school track season. I emphatically recommend LeJerald's track and field experience to any one that wants to develop better running skills, increase their speed or improve their long and triple jump skills to compete at any level!
J. Lady (Testimonial)
I have been knowing LeJerald for some years now back when I was in high school. I'm currently 20, every moment I ever seen LeJerald he made sure something motivating or positive was said. I stopped running after high school to sit that year off. My Dad of course have always been my biggest support and belief. As a kid our parents can be hard to be around sometimes and vice versa. Me and my Dad had the right idea but the motivation and drive was consumed with our personal life. We ran into LeJerald and for 5 months we trained I almost gave up although I seen my progression. The way LeJerald is as a person will make it hard for you to give up. Full of energy and wisdom. My Dad seen my dreams of track coming back to life when college officially became my vision. So he offered me a ONE semester chance in college After LeJerald made a phone call to verify availability there. It's been my first semester in college . I'm running on a fast track team and at the moment I have a 4.0 in school. I know you don't like credit but for some parts of my life I want to say thank you.
