Neuro Explosion Inc.
Neuro Explosion began back in 2004 with Jim Snider coaching a few amateur athletes and running small camps. Today, Olympic athletes, professionals, youth and everyone in between work with Neuro Explosion. Neuro is operated today by Jim and Jenna Snider. The foundation of the company lies in performance training - performance of the elite athlete to everyday people looking to improve their lives through strength and health.
We believe that the human being is continuously adapting to stress, both positive and negative. This requires an integrated system of constant awareness and a dynamic balance of nutrition, training, conditioning, and recovery modalities. We are consistently seeking knowledge in these areas and ways to integrate them to ensure the highest level of performance. Many of the roots of our system are based on Eastern Block training methodology.
The sole purpose of our online presence is to contribute our passion to the growing wealth of knowledge in the area of human performance. We welcome feedback from visitors, feel free to use the email form located on the right hand navigation bar throughout this website or comment sections located on the home page.
