Testimonials

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.
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.

Training by my own design without Coach Dan, I would have run myself into the ground. Coach Dan was able to alter my workouts on the spot with no advanced notice so that I stayed healthy and conditioned. Other times, he identified problems I was not aware of and then helped me to fix those problems.
I had worked with Coach Dan from July 2022 to August 2023 while I was training for the US Army’s Special Forces. Assessment and Selection or SFAS. I had two tasks before me which were to increase my run and ruck march speed, as well as to build my strength (specifically my upper back, grip, and feet). I asked Coach Dan to help me with these objectives. To these ends, my physical training with Coach Dan was a success. Both my run and ruck times, as well as my upper strength, including my back, grip, and foot strength improved much to meet SFAS standards. Additionally, I remained healthy with little pain throughout this training process. Many times, due to the intensity of my training, I had approached injury.
With Coach Dan, I stayed limber, increased my agility, and had become faster and more conditioned. However, I did not become a show pony as I became durable and can do whatever I had needed to do with confidence. I am a better man for having trained with Coach Dan, as I am more capable of dealing with life’s challenges, for the physical training and knowledge he shared with me. He is true to his word of training tactical athletes. Coach Dan provides a comprehensive physical fitness expertise that augments the working man’s life.

This program has opened my eyes to the importance of conditioning and body weight exercises which are critical to the PT Test. I have seen an improvement in my overall strength and an increase in my endurance.
I have just completed the 3-Month DEA Physical Task Assessment (PTA) Preparation Program. I cannot say enough good things about the program and Dan Borowick. The training program was comprehensive, structured specifically for the DEA PTA, and forced me to push myself. I started the program failing the PTA, while I hoped to improve in all areas, I knew I needed to specifically focus on the mile and a half run. After just 8 weeks into the program, I dropped a minute and a half on my mile and a half on average and upon completion, I had improved my total time by two minutes. Additionally, every exercise in this program is designed to have a direct impact in one of the PTA categories, specifically endurance. While I was an athlete my entire life, I primarily focused on weight lifting in the gym.
Dan helped me along the whole way, answering any questions I had and checking in on my progress. With his real world first-hand experience, tactical knowledge and extensive understanding of physical fitness, I had no doubt in Dan and plan to continue to learn all I can from him and Domex Strength and Fitness. Tactical training goes beyond the job and translates to everyday life, being physically fit and prepared is a necessary life skill and the programs offered by Domex are a great way to get there!

If I could do it again, I most certainly would and would encourage others to attempt any program with him while seeking to become a better tactical athlete.
I was personally trained by Coach Dan from FEB-AUG2023 in my train up for US Army Ranger School. Coach Dan worked with me outside of normal hours, and went out of his way to ensure I received the training that I needed. My biggest fear going in was ankle, knee, and lower back injuries from extenuating rucking conditions under heavy load. Coach Dan adapted and tailored my training to a tactical level with agility drills covering various plains of motion in boots and on uneven terrain. He simulated the conditions and scenarios I experienced in Ranger School and prepared me well. After all the joint and stability training, I had some close calls while at the course but never any issues which I attribute to the training I received from Coach Dan prior to my attendance. I completed RAP Week and all three phases with no muscular or skeletal injuries thanks to the careful attention and care provided to me by him.

Fitness Programming Excellence with Domex Strength & Fitness
I met Daniel through mutual friends and quickly realized that we shared a strong common interest: a fascination with the function of the human body, particularly in the context of fitness and athletic performance. We were especially aligned in understanding how critical fitness is for professionals in physically demanding fields like law enforcement.
As I got to know Daniel better, I was struck by the depth of his knowledge in sports fitness and performance. I asked him to design a fitness program tailored to help me achieve two specific goals:

1. To comfortably run a 5K
2. To score 100% on my annual physical fitness exam—without completely exhausting myself in the process.

This was a new challenge for Daniel, but he embraced it with enthusiasm. After taking the time to gather feedback from me, conducting his own research, and leveraging his extensive education and experience, he created a comprehensive 12-week program. While I was initially skeptical about some components of the plan, Daniel took the time to explain the purpose behind each exercise, how it supported my goals, and how it contributed to my overall athletic functionality on the job.
The physical fitness test I needed to pass consisted of the following, completed in three rounds with one minute of rest between rounds:

1. One minute of wall balls (20lb ball / 10ft target / 18” seat)
2. One minute of sumo deadlift high pulls (75lb kettlebell)
3. One minute of the 20-inch box jumps
4. One minute of push presses (75lb)
5. One minute of rowing (resistance level 10)

Last year, I scored 85% on this exam. After completing Daniel’s program this year, I scored 102%—a dramatic improvement. More importantly, I finished the test without feeling completely exhausted, which was a first for me.
Daniel’s program identified and strengthened my muscular weaknesses, improved my cardiovascular capacity, and helped me exceed my goals. At 52 years old, I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life—and I believe I still have another 10% to gain with continued effort. I look better, feel stronger, and can now outperform many of my peers in fitness classes.
I strongly believe in Daniel’s expertise, education, and—most importantly—his ability to apply fitness principles to real-world job performance. Whether you’re in law enforcement, firefighting, or the military, Daniel will set you up for success.
