Testimonials

“ The Hannibal-LaGrange University Softball program has utilized XCEL Performance’s program to improve the team’s overall performance.  Under the direction of Francisco Rivas from 2015 – 2018 the teams have shown vast improvement in all areas of strength development, flexibility, agility, and speed.  The program has noticeably reduced the number of injuries and the recovery time associated with a variety of injuries. The knowledge and willingness to prescribe specific training based on identified individual needs benefits those who need special attention.  The team members are convinced that this program definitely helps them perform at their highest level. This is why we are entering our fourth year with XCEL.”

I wanted to extend a big thank you for working with Jennie. She has transformed her body and is feeling confident. She has always had high goals and played with older girls in softball most of her life. A lot of that was due to the fact that she had the ability to play up with her sister. She has worked so hard this summer and it shows. She has a goal to start as a Freshman and I believe with her dedication she has a lot to offer her team.
Rich and I sincerely appreciate your time, dedication, and willingness to work with Jennie. We have known the value that you provide athletes but it is amazing to see Jennie’s progress.
You are a great role model and motivator to the athletes. It is so nice to see as a parent.
