Here are testimonials from some of my past clients:

“I have had several trainers before working with Dan and he is by far the best. Dan is very knowledgeable in the area of fitness. He is punctual and dependable. He has a calm demeanor but don’t let that fool you. Dan will challenge you. Dan helped me learn that my body is capable of doing hard things and it is a change in mindset. I hope that you get to work out with Dan. Best Trainer Ever!” – SR

“Dan was my trainer for six months and he was the third trainer I used in the last two years. Dan’s knowledge and explanation of physical fitness helped me reach many of my fitness goals in that time period. His ability to explain why he makes recommendations is what I needed to stay motivated. In addition, Dan started me on an aerobic plan that I worked in after our session. As I progressed Dan introduced me to the principles of a good diet. No other trainer has been engaged with my success. I continue to use his recommendations and have yet to find someone of his knowledge and dedication to my goals.” – RH

“Dan was a tremendous help in my journey back to fitness after my health issues and surgery. He motivated me and helped me achieve personal records, teaching me new exercises to achieve my goals. I dropped in weight with his guidance in sessions and his nutritional tips. He knows his stuff and pushes you to be your best at your level. I would highly recommend his training!” – AR

“Dan listened closely to what my goals where and helped me ease back into a fitness routine. He was patient and gave helpful, lasting tips. He is very easy to talk to and I always felt very comfortable.” – DD

“Dan was a remarkable trainer who was able to make me feel comfortable working out after a long break from fitness. At the same time, he also challenged me greatly and I felt stronger after every session.” – EM

“I had the pleasure of being Dan’s client for weekly one-on-one weightlifting sessions. We met for a period of months. As I’ve had major back surgery at a younger age and I’m fairly thin, I’ve typically just hung out in the machine weights section of the gym, mostly for fear of embarrassment or injury. But Dan showed me that I’m so much stronger than I thought. He introduced me to free weights and had be doing squats and deadlifts from Day 1. Over the weeks we steadily ramped up in weight and repetition. At times, I couldn’t believe the gains I was seeing! Dan helped me to shed some old ideas about myself and tapped into a lifting capacity I had once thought impossible.” – CW
