About Us

Elevate Skills with Coach

At PursueAthletics, we believe that Sport Success and Athletic Greatness is built on a foundation of sports specific training and athletic well-roundedness. Through their lengthy respective high-level sporting careers at North American, Italian and German/Spanish Soccer Clubs overseas, founders Jürgen and Matthäus Weinczok have had the benefit of being exposed to world-class trainers and training systems. PursueAthletics takes this first hand knowledge and combines it with theoretical teaching to deliver a unique results oriented training approach which focuses heavily on developmental feedback between trainer and athlete.
Similar to many other athletes navigating modern-day sports, Matthäus and Jürgen have experienced the frustration and uncertainty of which training pathway to follow,. Towards the tail end of their soccer careers, the Weinczoks began their journey as Speed and Strength coaches, working individually with hundreds of athletes of all ages and skill levels, developing a keen sense of where an athlete’s training focal point should lie. Using over two decades of sporting experience in Elite European Soccer and currently competing Provincially in Olympic Weightlifting, Jürgen and Matthäus have helped athletes of all ages to fill the gaps in their training and dramatically accelerate attainment of their sporting and fitness goals.

PursueAthletics delivers development with a purpose, where athletes of all ages and sporting preferences will experience an easy-to-understand tailor-made training regime and face-to-face instruction. Simply put, the PursueAthletics program ensures rapid and demonstrable improvements in speed, strength and athleticism.
