The problem
Your effort is high. Your numbers are stuck.
More drills, harder lifting, and extra conditioning only add fatigue if nobody has decided what is actually limiting you.
Your team coach has a roster to manage. Nathan has your target, your video, and your response to the last week.
Everything included in your 16 weeks
Your coach stays involved between workouts.
You get the program and direct support from Nathan. Mental performance and life coaching are included, alongside technique feedback, nutrition, weekly accountability, and Bible study access.
Your own 16-week program
Nathan builds the block from your current lifts, sport, position, and season. Strength, speed, and conditioning fit into the same week, with changes as your numbers and recovery change.
Technique feedback you can use
Send your training clips and get feedback from the coach who wrote your program. You know what to change in the next session instead of repeating the same mistake for a whole block.
Weekly accountability with Nathan
Your completed sessions, missed work, and recovery go into the check-in. Nathan reviews it himself, asks about the gaps, and makes the next week's expectations clear.
Nutrition and recovery support
Get help with calorie and protein targets, meal habits, bodyweight goals, and sleep. You know what to eat and how to recover between sessions, with Nathan reviewing what is working.
Bible study and faith conversations
Bible study access is included, with room for questions about pressure, discipline, and life beyond sport. Scripture and prayer can be part of your private coaching when you want them.
Mental performance and life coaching
Work on confidence before competition and getting your focus back after a mistake. Nathan also helps you handle competing demands from school, work, and sport, then follows up on the commitments you choose.

How accountability works
Your check-in ends with a plan for next week.
01Agree on the work
Set the sessions and recovery commitments around your practice, school, and work schedule.
02Log your sessions
Record your lifts, send technique clips, and report the work you completed or missed.
03Get Nathan's review
Nathan checks your progress, asks about the gaps, and helps solve what got in the way.
04Know the next step
You get the next week's plan and clear commitments to bring back to the next check-in.
The week 16 guarantee
Thirty pounds on all three lifts.
Complete the agreed training, check-ins, and recovery work. If your squat, clean, or bench is not up 30 pounds by the end of week 16, Nathan keeps coaching you free until all three are.
Your starting maxes and testing standards are recorded before week one, so the retest measures the same lifts under the same rules.
The guarantee covers 30 pounds on each lift, not 30 pounds combined.Built from DARP
DARP could flag the problem. It could not coach the athlete.
Neuroforce began as DARP, Nathan Gunnell's proprietary adaptive periodization software. It compared the written plan with the athlete's response and flagged when the dose stopped fitting.
The alert was not the answer. A coach still had to look at practice, recovery, pain, travel, competition, and the work the athlete actually completed. Neuroforce Athletics was built to make that decision directly.
Example speed and jump targets
Bring more speed and bounce to the next season.
The plan can also include plyometrics, jump practice, starts, and sprint mechanics. Nathan fits that work around your lifting, practice, and recovery.
These are example targets, not client averages. Your roadmap call establishes which numbers fit your starting point and 16-week window.
Vertical jump
36 40 in
A four-inch target increase, measured with the same jump test at the start and finish.
40-yard dash
5.0 4.5 sec
A half-second target reduction, measured with the same start and timing method.
Your coach
Nathan Gunnell
IPL world championISSA certified personal trainerISSA certified nutritionist
Nathan won an IPL world powerlifting title at 17 and has competed as a sprinter. He built DARP because his own training kept exposing the same problem: a spreadsheet cannot decide what to change when the athlete stops responding as expected.
He coaches strength, speed, power, conditioning, recovery, technique, and nutrition accountability, then adjusts the plan when practice, pain, travel, competition, or recovery changes the week.
Before your roadmap call
Straight answers.
Which sports do you coach?
Nathan coaches the physical qualities that transfer across sports, including strength, speed, power, and conditioning. The first call determines whether his experience fits your sport, level, and current season.
What does the performance guarantee cover?
The 16-week guarantee is 30 pounds added to each of your squat, clean, and bench. Complete the agreed training, check-ins, and recovery work. If any of those lifts is still short at week 16, Nathan keeps coaching you at no added cost until all three are up 30 pounds.
Can this help me get recruited?
Yes. Your plan can be built around the speed, power, strength, conditioning, film, and testing numbers you need to bring to camps, combines, coaches, and schools. The written guarantee is tied to the performance target you train for, while each school still makes its own final recruiting decision.
Is the coaching fully remote?
Yes. Programming, exercise guidance, check-ins, clip review, and adjustments are delivered remotely through Everfit. Calls are used when the situation needs a direct conversation.
What happens during the season?
Nathan adjusts the dose around practice, games, travel, fatigue, and recovery. In-season training should support the sport instead of competing with it.
Can you coach around pain or an injury?
Nathan can change exercise selection, range of motion, volume, intensity, and weekly structure when pain changes what you can train. If you already have guidance from a clinician, he can build the program around it.
What does accountability actually look like?
You agree on the training and habits for the week, log what you complete, and report what got in the way. Nathan reviews your check-in and follows up on missed commitments. Direct messages and private calls give you a way to ask for help before a difficult week turns into a missed month.
Is mental performance and life coaching included?
Yes. A bad game, doubt before a tryout, or pressure outside sport can all come into the conversation. Nathan helps you work through what happened, decide what to do next, and follow through. Life coaching also covers the habits, relationships, and school or work priorities you want help with. The focus is practical decisions and behavior, not mental health treatment.
Are nutrition and recovery included?
Yes. Coaching can include calorie and protein targets, meal structure, bodyweight goals, sleep habits, and weekly accountability. Nathan adjusts the guidance around your training, schedule, and the result you are working toward.
Is Bible study included?
Yes. Bible study access is included alongside your coaching, and private conversations can include Scripture and prayer. Participation is your choice. The performance guarantee never depends on religious participation.
What should I bring to the first call?
Bring your sport, season, current program, weekly schedule, equipment, and the result you want to improve. Nathan will tell you whether one-to-one coaching fits.
