Dan is the Man
I came to Danny after a long time off of lifting and nutrition and needed to feel like I was optimizing my weight training and nutrition because I wanted results yesterday. The more Danny and I worked together and focused on the fundamentals (ROM over ego lifting) I was able to realize that’s it was far less complicated than I was making it. Taking a more reasonable approach, I was able to balance grad school, work and still see amazing success at the gym.

80/20 at it's finest!
I've been plagued by injuries in the gym my whole life. Danny listened to my fear around injury and created a program that was both effective but low probability for injury. Not only did he create a great program, to fit my needs, he has also brought me along and explained his reasoning for both the workout program and diet choices.
