MEET YOUR TRAINER
Hey, I'm Derek!
I discovered OCR in 2018 at the ripe young age of 41.
Since then, I've become a Certified Personal Trainer through NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine), A Certified Spartan SGX Coach, Spartan RAM Certified, A Spartan Obstacle Specialist Instructor, and most recently became among the first 10 people in the world to become Spartan DEKA Certified!
I continue to affiliate with brands and work to further my education to enhance the level of training I can bring to my clients.

Testimonials
I started training with Jake and the IEP team in 2023 and initially knew their approach to movement, training and performance was on a whole different level. No one in the LE or Mil training world was addressing this critical need in the way they do. The IEP team has the education, experience and individual hard skills to enhance any individual or departments training program. The practical performance based approach is something I support 100%. The way they address not only performance but combine it with individual hard skills is something that anyone can benefit from. I’ve been using their methods and programming in my own training and am extremely happy with the improvements I continue to make.
Matt Pranka
Xray Alpha LLC
I’ve trained with hundreds of instructors from all over the world, seen what they bring to the table, and while there are many good ones, Jake and the crew from IEP have truly found a niche that was lacking and filled it with solid knowledge. Despite being at the pinnacle of their craft, they’re still pushing their own growth and constantly evolving new ideas, drills, and training strategies... Plus, they’re just good dudes.
Joe Farewell
Instructor/Professional Shooter
Even having been athletic all my life and playing on a nationally ranked college lacrosse team, there were still many valuable pointers, tips, and lessons to be learned while working with Jake at In Extremis Performance. Regardless of your previous athletic experience, it’s well worth attending a course and tapping into their expertise on the topic of movement with a rifle or handgun.

IEP provides a unique framework for firearms and tactical mobility training. Their top notch instructors are able to effectively and efficiently show the correlation between efficient movement and effective firearm performance. I highly recommend this training to all law enforcement officers.

Persident, TTPOA
Jake has been working diligently to bring the training industry something it’s never seen before and it’s very interesting. Instead of a shooting coach that can move, he’s a movement coach that can shoot. And I love it.
Mark Smith
JBS Training Solutions
The guys at In Extremis Performance understand efficiency and movement from a high level. If you are serious about improving your skill set with not only shooting, but in any athletic endeavor. I highly recommend training with In Extremis Performance.

TESTIMONIALS
What clients are saying
"Derek is one of the most positive guys I have ever met."
I am an active participant in Spartan SGX training. I have never felt judged for my performance or for the entirety of my time spent training. Derek is one of the most positive guys I have ever met. Derek is a certified Spartan trainer amongst other qualifications. Spartan SGX training has made me a stronger person, not just physically but mentally. Derek knows how to motivate in a way that keeps my individual workouts challenging in a group setting. I look forward to spartan training every week!

"The workouts were a blast"
Derek has a comprehensive and effective 12 week workout program that prepares you for the Spartan and Tough Mudder obstacle course races. The workouts were a blast, and the community was even better. With Derek's help, I was able to take second place in my age group at the Nashville Spartan Sprint in 2023.

"Coach Derek has taught me I can train anywhere."
I highly recommend training with coach Derek! He helped me prepare for my first spartan race not only physically but mentally with all the experience and knowledge of the races. I normally just go to the gym but coach Derek has taught me I can train anywhere. Thanks again!!

Frequently Asked Questions
Want to get started but have a few questions?
What is OCR?
OCR stands for "Obstacle Course Racing". Think of it like trail running with different stations of additional challenges (like Monkey Bars, Wall Climbs, or Heavy Carries)
Aren't these kind of events for serious athletes?
Yes AND No. It is a physical event, but that doesn't mean YOU have to be in top shape - it's about challenging yourself to do something different, to get outside your comfort zone and truly realize what you are capable of.
Do I HAVE to run?
Nope! Though if you want to compete to try and podium, you should run. It's really more about finishing - just get THROUGH the challenges. Then we can try to get better and faster.
Ok, I'm interested... how much?
That largely depends on you! One-on-One in person training is very involved so will be more expensive. Online training is delivered directly to your phone so will be less expensive. It also depends on what your timeframe and goals are.
