Episode 156 - Jake Feury - Stretch Recovery Lounge

“The biggest thing that helped me…stretching...it can be applied to everyone, not just athletes.”

“We help keep you healthy.” - Jake Feury

In Episode 156, the Two Fit Crazies have an awesome conversation with Jake Feury, the mastermind and owner of Stretch Recovery Lounge in Ridgefield, New Jersey. Jake, who also happens to be a professional Rugby player for Rugby United New York, shares how his use of stretching and recovery enabled him to fully recover from bilateral fractures in his vertebrae and stay at the top of his game. With a passion for not only helping athletes prepare for and recover from big competitions, but also a desire to help the average person recover from injuries, improve mobility, and increase flexibility, Jake is an extremely intelligent and experienced trainer. His dream of opening his own business became a reality in the fall of 2019, and since then, he now employs a group of talented therapists and trainers who are highly adept at assisted stretching, massage, cupping, deep tissue ice therapy, and more. If you are looking to improve the quality of your life and live more active years, you will love Jake Feury! Take some notes or even try a virtual session!

“This became my purpose; I wanted to help people!” - David Caldarella

In Episode 149, the Two Fit Crazies were honored to sit down with David Caldarella, CEO & Co-Founder of David’s Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation. David shares his amazing story starting when he was first diagnosed with stage four head and neck cancer over ten years ago to what he went through both physically and mentally while undergoing intense rounds of chemotherapy, radiation, and various surgeries. Thinking that “this was it,” David created the Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation, a nonprofit that raises funds to provide financial assistance, wellness services and HOPE to New Jersey families affected by a cancer diagnosis. For David, this would be his legacy after he was no longer with us. Today, David is ten years removed from his diagnosis and remains cancer-free! Listen closely as David discusses the importance of serving as a “beacon of hope” for patients and families as the foundation has now helped over 1,700 families and raised over 1.1 million dollars. Next on the agenda, David is planning community fundraising events, increasing business partnerships, and sponsoring athletes to raise funds on behalf of “TEAM DREAM!” In fact, look out for Two Fit Crazies at the Boston Marathon this April September running on behalf of David’s Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation! Let’s all be on a mission of hope and giving!
