Jacques also established a career outside of sports and fitness in the management of money and the trading of securities which requires extensive time and energy. Jacques was constantly struggling with ways to train that required minimal time during his regular travel. So, he developed short workouts, for himself, which provided superior fitness gains while on the road.

Jacques decided to leave Vert and open Titan Sports Performance in Santa Barbara and created his own training center. Titan was the first sports performance center in Santa Barbara at the time. Over the last 15 years Titan has provided training to hundreds of athletes, teams, and individuals in Santa Barbara.. For all of Jacques life he has been a competitive athlete, coaching, and training other athletes and individuals on how to improve their fitness. He has not only trained others but is living proof of his training methods. He has kept his fitness at a level that allows him to competitively race his bicycle with minimal training time. Jacques has accomplished this through his understanding of the science of how the human body performs and responds to training.
