What Our Athletes Are Saying

“Sometimes you can’t do it all, all by yourself. For months, I walked into the commercial gym thinking I can get right back into my old program and mindset. And every time, I’d leave early and frustrated. At D1, there’s an amazing staff that really hypes you up, takes you through a program, and knows what kind of support and feedback you need. It was exactly the environment ...” - Jessica K
“D1 Training has most helped improve Liam’s speed and agility which in turn has helped with his overall quickness, both physically and mentally. I also believe the strength component has helped him continue to grow and improve as a well rounded soccer player.” - Chad Jansen
“The D1 team reflects exceptional training that combines enthusiasm, knowledge, clinical care, personalization, and support. Although I have worked with Dave Heinz before as he is recognized as one of the best trainers in the State, what makes D1 great is the entire team. Shout out to Dave, Alyssa, Leena, and Jordyn - keep up the great work.” - Mike Willerer
