Welcome Dr. of Physical Therapy Durand Shoup

Please join us in welcoming Dr. Of Physical Therapy, Durand Shoup to the Endurance Collective family.

Durand received his bachelor's degree in Kinesiology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Elon University. Durand’s education has provided a strong understanding of how optimal tissue loading and manual intervention have the ability to increase race-day performance, decreased recovery time, and decrease the prevalence of overuse injuries. His education allows him to consider the person as a whole from proper nutrition and recovery to a highly specific movement plan to address the client's specific goals. His main professional goal is to allow greater access to increased performance for professional and recreational athletes and creation of an inspiring pathway to find the inner athlete in anybody regardless of past medical history.

Durand has grown up with a healthy daily dose of outdoor sports ranging from cycling, snowboarding, backpacking, and rock climbing. During college, he took a deep dive into his first love of cycling with long endurance bike packing rides, and enduro mountain biking. Durand understands the importance of balancing a rigorous daily schedule and finding time to invest in one’s personal mental and physical health through adventure sports.

When Durand is not working with his clients you can find him outdoors with his wife enjoying a wide range of adventure sports. To his standards “the best rides are started at a cafe and end with a local brewery.”

We look forward to adding Dr. Shoup’s skill set to the EC network. You can contact Durand directly by emailing him at durand@theendurancecollective.com or give us a shout if you would like to hear more about Dr. Shoup.
