Jeff Pedersen was a promising athlete ready for the big leagues. He attended Fermin Lasuen High School in San Pedro where he earned 9 varsity letters and held numerous records. He was voted Athlete of the Year in 1968 and was a high round draft pick by the Chicago Cubs, but he chose a USC baseball scholarship instead. At USC, he was the first player in NCAA college history to start on three straight National Championship baseball teams, serving as team captain in 1972, and was selected to represent USC in the Pan American Games.
Jeff had a pretty incredible career, but ultimately an injury placed Jeff onto to a different path in life where he became a fitness educator and product inventor, and he is now the owner of Sports Research and creator of Sweet Sweat. At the time Jeff did not realize this one of a kind product would lead to the development of a company.
Jeff developed Sweet Sweat in the late 1970s for his 500-member athletic club to help enhance and accelerate their workout programs. Although it took almost four years of daily physical testing on himself as well as his club members to get the product right, the results were so impressive and immediate that friends of the members were asking if they could also use Sweet Sweat. A decision was then made to put this “one of a kind” fitness product on the market in 1980. Present day Sports Research carries over forty skus, and Sweet Sweat has now mushroomed to being exported to 53 countries around the world and is used by amateur and professional athletes in bodybuilding, boxing, football, mixed martial arts, track and field, and other sports to substantially improve circulation, energy, and sweating.
