I bring the latest science of exercise physiology to the masses to achieve individual fitness goals.

Hello, my name is Jacob Pettinga. I am the guy behind The Endeavor Club. I launched The Endeavor Club to help people achieve their fitness related goals. Currently, I am studying kinesiology at Calvin University and will be graduating this spring.

I am also a member of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) who are the oldest and one of the most recognized exercise science governing bodies in the United States established in 1954. ACSM does research in exercise science and related fields that provide physicians, exercise physiologists, and personal trainers with the latest guidelines for exercise prescription. I am a ACSM certified exercise physiologist which means that I am sufficiently trained to conduct and interpret physical fitness assessments and develop exercise prescriptions for people who are healthy or have medically controlled diseases.

I am also a collegiate athlete where I participate in track and cross country as a long distance runner. Moreover, I have deep interests in coaching distance runners. I have obtained my USATF Level 1 coaching certification and I currently coach a semi-professional distance runner who runs for the HOKA One One Aggies team.
