Ryan Carson of Hopewell High School will be attending Thiel College to play football and wrestle. As you can see Ryan has put in some great work and has packed on some serious muscle in 4 months. He trained 3-5 days a week and the group he was training with have all turned themselves into serious BEASTS! During our Strongman Competition Ryan placed 3rd in the College Division. Ryan is a great example of what a proper diet, hard work, determination and discipline can do for a young athlete. Ryan would leave work to come and train. After he finished training he would go back to work cutting grass with his dad and their family business. That’s discipline! No Excuses here!
DST athletes got together at PNC Park to watch the Pirates for an end of the summer cookout. We all met at the gym and drove up. It was a great way to end the summer! These athletes have built some good friendships while training side by side. People at PNC wanted to know who we were and why we were wearing the same shirts. Lots of curiosity about the gym and the athletes behind it all. The best part was when everyone left the game they all made it a point to slap hands. That was cool! When summer started not too many athletes knew each other. They have definetly made a lifelong connection Check out the video and some pictures as well!!

DST Success Story IV
Jesse Battaglia: Rochester Football
Before and After: Total Dominance
Jesse Battaglia will be a senior lineman for Rochester Football this coming year. This young man is a perfect example of what DST and our gym is all about. From day 1 back in early December Jesse has trained with a purpose. That purpose was to put himself in the best position to become the best football player he could be. This athlete is mentally tough and his work ethic is ferocious. He has packed on 40 lbs since December and is strong as a bull! Make no mistake about it; his results came from a constant pursuit to get better. Jesse will be a dominating force this year for Rochester and anyone across from him. During our Strongman Fundraiser Jesse won the high school division. To give you an example of his strength and explosiveness, he flipped the 600 lb tire 3 times in 7.62 seconds. That’s a lot of pancakes for an offensive lineman. This BEAST never makes EXCUSES! He conquers any obstacle in his way! Expect big things for Jesse this year and years to come!!!!
My training philosophy has many different goals. I will push athletes to perform at the highest level while building strength and mental toughness. You can be the best athlete on the field, court or during a match but when faced with adversity you had better be mentally tough. It might be a free throw to win the game or you might be wrestling the defending state champ. You have to be mentally tough to conquer such challenges. This program is very strict and up front. I want athletes who want to win and be the best.
The athletes who train at DST are disciplined, goal oriented and held accountable for what they do in and outside of the gym. They are brutally strong, well conditioned and MENTALLY TOUGH. The most impressive part about our club is all the athletes that train are either on High Honors or Highest Honors at their school.
Become a part of our club at DST and watch you overall athletic performance sky rocket!
Dedicated to your success,
Rick Daman
