Currently employed as Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Special Agent, I had the fortunate chance to work with Dan for several years. Throughout my life, I had grown up under the premise of lifting weights with the science of lifting heavy, lift a lot and subsequently I learned that things change depending on age and activities. Aside from my current position as a Special Agent and formerly as a SWAT Team operator with a previous Federal Agency, I was comfortable with my previous knowledge of exercise. However, working with Dan had opened me up to new ideas of thinking and new workouts which included the functional strength training that is heavily needed in law enforcement. In retrospect, and pursuant to learning from Dan, I wished I had that educated scientific knowledge of exercise science earlier in my career. Due to the normal daily duties of sitting in a car for extended periods of time on patrol or surveillance, or sitting at a desk the other times, I’ve learned that functional strength training for our tactical readiness is paramount. Anytime I’ve had a question or needed a change in my workouts, to nutritional and strength and conditioning questions for my son playing college baseball, Dan has always eagerly provided us with the answers. Dan has always provided the scientific backed evidence to corroborate the information that he has given to us. He passionately loves educating and coaching strength and conditioning to tactical athletes and furthermore, he is extremely devoted to the law enforcement community because he personally knows the requirements which produces targeted results based upon his several years as a tactical athlete himself.Sincerely, Michael, Drug Enforcement Administration Special Agent
