John, I can’t thank you enough throughout the years of working with me and turning me into a complete athlete. Understanding what it truly feels like to become better prepared than other athletes on the field! You have helped bring my game to the next level! Every step I have taken to achieving my dream you have been right by my side. Thank You

Learning of Xceleration sports and meeting John Furia is one of the best things to happen to me. When I came to John in 2004 I was a mess, I was 6’2″ 150 lb string bean and was getting shoved around on the field. John being so knowledgeable in what he does fixed me up in no time, I am now 6’3″ and over 200 lbs. I am bigger, stronger and faster then I could have ever imaged and I am still advancing. Especially after I tore my ACL John With his knowledge had me on an accelerated program, I was back to Running in no time. I now play for one of the best division three lacrosse Programs (Wesleyan University), I had to take a year off because of my ACL but I plan on coming back a dominant force because of John. John Furia and Steve Wilk got me to where I am today and have allowed me to become the Athlete that I am now.

In 2004 I had been experiencing some shoulder discomfort that was hampering me throughout the season while playing for Birmingham in the Southern League. When I first met John and set foot in his facility I felt comfortable right away. John assured me immediately that whatever was going on with my shoulder that he could help me get it right and he did. The effort John and his staff put into working with me was second to none. Within days of starting my first training program for my shoulder I began to feel better. When it came time for me to leave for spring training I was throwing pain free for the first time in months. It felt almost as I had been given a new arm. Since then I have trained with John at Xceleration every off-season. I have never been as strong both physically and mentally as I am after Fleaving his facility each winter before spring training. I know I would not be where I am today if it wasn’t for the help and guidance I have received from John

My son Michael has been training at Xceleration for over the past two years. During that time you developed a training program that greatly improved Michaels Speed, Strength and Agility and directly contributed to his outstanding confidence and play on the lacrosse field. Also Michael had a couple of injuries during this timeframe and you were able to get him back on the field in a very short time! Michaels efforts were noticed by many top division I lacrosse schools and “the edge” that Xceleration gave Michael will allow him to play lacrosse at Princeton University in the spring of 2009. John, many thanks to you and your staff!

John my experience here at Xceleration has been great. My results have far exceeded my expectations. This picture says it all. I could have never been able to do it without you. Thank you for making me the player I am today. I would recommend your program to anyone.

I cannot say enough about John Furia and how much he has done for me and my athletic career. I started working out with John when I was 14 years old in 8th grade and from that point on we have continued to work together each year ever since. John’s training allowed me to excel in high school athletics and as a result earn an athletic scholarship to the University of Virginia to play lacrosse. His training program made me bigger, faster, stronger and mentally tougher than most athletes I competed against which has allowed me to perform my very best on the field. His training methods also prepared me for college, as I found workouts at Virginia to be mush easier than the workouts John had prepared me with for college. As a result of my training at Xceleration I was able to easily make the transition from high school to college and compete at the Division I level as a freshman and receive significant playing time early in my career. John also has also been a tremendous help throughout my career in dealing with various injuries. He is a wealth of knowledge in regards to rehabilitation as well as injury prevention and treatment; I credit John with keeping me in one piece during high school and in college. I have never met an individual who knows more about physical fitness and the human body than John. John’s facility has become a second home to me as I can always go there to work out and enjoy the company of John and other athletes whom I have grown up training with. John has made such a positive impact on my life, I cannot begin to describe all the ways in which he has helped me and my family. John and Xceleration have with out a doubt been the most important aspect of my athletic career and I credit him with making me into the athlete I am today.

I came to John weighing 220 pounds with 7% body fat and in less than 6 weeks I weighed 236 pounds at 6% body fat. I am not only stronger and faster but the visual changes to my body have been tremendous. If you are an athlete that wants to get better go to Furia’s Xceleration and you will see results in no time.

Since the writing of this testimonial after having spent the past year in the Xceleration program matt Castagna has re-enlisted into the OCS Marine Corps program healthy again after continuing John’s grueling training program. Matt said: “I never knew I would feel this good again. It has always been my dream to complete the OCS program and go on to become pilot. I began to feel better and better and started to think about giving it another try. Without this program it wouldn’t even have been a possibility. I leave January 18, 2008. Thanks to John and the guys at Xceleration”.

John, I thought I would let you know the program you designed for me is working great. I introduced your program to some of the other guys that I have been training with. All of their physical fitness scores have gone up which they all attribute to your program. The word is spreading about how I “kick guys butts” in the weight room. I know this is the kind of stuff you love to hear. So again thank you, I cannot be more grateful.
