The spots are quickly filling up! I have decided to shut it off at 7 coaches.

I ONLY want serious coaches who want to get their athletes better! We have coaches coming from Pittsburgh and all the way from Michigan!

They are going to leave our Mobility/Recovery Seminar with much more knowledge as Shawn and I will as well because we get the opportunity to work with other like-minded coaches!

Daman’s Strength Training and GameSpeed

Attention: High School Coaches, Strength Coaches, Athletes & Parents

“Start incorporating the upper and lower body mobility movements we use at DST to keep your athletes strong and healthy”

ONLY $127!

Daman’s Strength Training wants to thank you for stopping by our site and taking the time to see what we can offer YOU and YOUR program!

You came to this page for a reason. You want to improve the health of your athletes or just start implementing different recovery and mobility methods into your own training.

Or maybe you don’t incorporate any mobility or recover and the time is now!

This seminar is for anyone who wants to get better. We will be covering many topics on mobility and recovery. You will learn how to properly execute these movements so you can coach your athletes and start seeing instant success!

Who this seminar is NOT for…

• Ego driven coaches, trainers, athletes
• Coaches, trainers and athletes who are NOT willing to get better
• Coaches, trainers and athletes who don’t want to WIN

This seminar is going to be the start of a series of seminars we will be running from now until the end of summer.

 

!!!Warning!!!

This is NOT a sit in the chair type seminar. Every single seminar I have attended has been hands on! Sitting in a chair sucks! WE want you to see how important it is to be able to execute these movements so you can properly coach and implement them into your program. Plus it’s fun to train together and learn/coach one another. Shawn and I GUARANTEE you will leave DST with a better understanding on the importance of mobility and recovery in your athletes and your program.

 

 

 

Rick Daman knows Strength & Conditioning inside and out!

Rick and I first met when he came to EVERY single seminar I held at my gym during a one year period. His commitment to learning more and perfecting his craft boils down to his undying passion for his athletes and clients because he is committed to giving them the BEST he’s got.

 

 

My respect for Rick is beyond words because I know him as a Coach, a friend and as a man of his word and nothing less. If you have an opportunity to learn from Rick you should be jumping at the opportunity.

Throughout my career within the health, fitness and sports conditioning sector my work has been known for developing a more rounded individual of rock-solid character and unimpeachable values and mores as well as being physically prepared for their tasks. This is quite obviously a task of enormous proportions as we must fight the tides of present-day acceptance of lowered morals and equally expectations of what a “coach” should accomplish.

 

It is even a rare find for a young coach to be willing to accept such a daunting task yet I have fortunate with a small band of dedicated professionals I refer to as “TEAM Renegade”.

 

Yet even amongst that rare group there are the “diamonds” that not only tackle such a challenge but are prepared to lead others into the profession, leading them onto the path so that they too can mentor a new generation.

 

At the heights of that “rare group” there is Shawn Moody and the last decade of knowing him has not only been reaffirming of what true leadership can provide but hope for the future.

 

Shawn’s curriculum vitae is a lengthy list of capabilities and accomplishments that will set him apart as one of the most qualified individuals to coach at any level and while that will surely impress it is not sufficient. I have had the pleasure to coach at the highest level of sport throughout the world and can attest that his abilities rank him as one of the finest in the profession but his work goes much further in developing character, values and leaders of tomorrow.

Of the latter concerns that is the true measure of a great coach and it is without qualification that I state Shawn Moody is the choice to make in not only building great athletes but great citizens and leaders of the next generation.

As always, I remain

In faith,

A huge part of training athletes that gets overlooked is the importance of mobility in the athlete.

 

Maybe you think that you don’t have the time, you aren’t sure where and when to incorporate the movements or you can’t see where the athletes are lacking the mobility.

 

This seminar will guide you in….

• When/Where to incorporate these movements
• How to properly coach them to your athletes
• How to choose the right movements that will be beneficial to you or your athletes

Being able to recover from a workout will ensure the athlete they are doing everything to remain healthy. The last thing WE want is for an athlete to get injured while training.

Shawn will be discussing how he incorporates our recovery methods and WHY its important for all of your athletes to not only be strong but be able to move properly!

Shawn will…

• Demonstrate 3 different Recovery Flows
• Break down the coaching cues so you can instantly implement them into your training program

 

Not Only Will You Learn How to Incorporate Mobility and Recovery Methods into Your Training But You Will…

• Be surrounded by other like minded coaches
• Be able to build a rapport with Shawn and I have an open relationship in training

 

Here are the important details you will need to know about the seminar….

WHEN: March 10th, 2012

WHERE: Daman’s Strength Training

I finally got a hold of Jordan’s highlight tape. Jordan might be quite but when he gets on the field he turns into a coaches dream. He becomes an animal, a bully and finishes his blocks.

 

This picture captures Jordan and how aggressive he is when between the white lines!

 

 

 

If you’re a football coach you understand finishing the block. I wanted to post his highlight and hope to get his senior year highlight tape on here as well!

Enjoy and watch the big man do work!

 

 

 

 

 

At 6-5 280 lbs Jordan Farrow came to DST going into his Junior year. His sophomore year he didn’t get much playing time but through his hard work and dedication he found that NOT only was he strong he was a good football player.

 

Last week Jordan accepted a scholarship to play offensive tackle at Mercyhurst University. He has a great career ahead of him.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only thing Jordan needed was confidence! The rest came naturally.

Jordan has had quite a successful high school career. His accomplishments are listed below.

 

Here is a list of Jordan’s accomplishments
-3rd Team All State AAA Offensive Lineman
-1st Team All-Conference (unanimous selection)
-2010 East-West All-Star Game Selection
-W.P.I.A.L. Champion (2010 Central Valley Warriors)

 

 

Jordan will be playing in the East-West All-Star game at Gateway High School in May. We are hoping to take a few DST athletes and watch Jordan as he plays in his last high school football game.

 

We have 40 athletes that train at DST. Each athlete has a different rate of success. This athlete is truly a great example of starting at nothing and continuing to climb mountains. Sean Hupp came to DST at 250 lbs. Sean needed some major work and the road ahead was a long one.

Over the past 1 ½ years Sean has completely changed into an athlete. He pulled out his potential and continues to reach new goals! Sean has been extremely focused since day one and has NEVER missed a training session. There is nothing he can’t do at DST.

Trust me if there was he WILL find a way to conquer it.

For coaches who say that bodyweight, kettle bells and sand bags don’t work here is another example of an athlete progressing through many phases of training. NEVER wavering, getting frustrated or making stupid excuses!

 He gets it done!

 Here is a video testimonial and a quick video of Sean hitting 225 lbs x3 for the first time on back squat.

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a small video clip of Sheldon Jeter of Beaver Falls Basketball. At DST we build strong confident and explosive athletes! We also build a family atmosphere that is hard to match!

Sheldon has major D-1 schools recruiting him as he continues his pursuit for a championship.

I had the opportunity to see Sheldon during this game. He totally dominated his opponent who is 6-11 and also getting looks at D-1 schools. This night Sheldon proved he was the best on the floor in every facet of the game!

Sheldon also wore the DST shirt to represent his hard work and dedication!

Check him out here on HeyRubino.com. Big thanks to John Rubino for providing this clip for DST!

Sheldon won MVP of this tournament and also scored his 1,000 career point during this game!

I’ll NEVER forget the feeling I had when I first stepped foot in a gym for the first time. The feeling I had when I first started lifting weights. I was 13 years old and found something I couldn’t stop thinking about.

At 31 I still have the same feeling when I walk into DST everyday. The same feeling when I train and when I coach my athletes. This isn’t something I picked up a few years ago. I have been living this since that first day.

See, I told ya…

The iron has molded me, has shaped me and took me to heights I thought I could NEVER reach! It always brought me to a positive mindset. It showed me how to conquer difficult obstacles and win with resilience!

Living my dream and opening up DST has become more than I could have ever imagined. Building relationships with my athletes is HUGE! These athletes are important to me and I want them ALL to SUCCEED!

I coach them daily, weekly, monthly and yearly! I NEVER hear an EXCUSE. If I do I quickly change their mindset. They ask me when I train. I train in the early morning. I train to get my mind right. I train to be better for them. I train to be mentally strong for my wife, family and my daughter who will be arriving soon!

I refuse to be a weak man! I refuse to sit and make excuses to my kids. Won’t happen!

I wanted my athletes to see me train and that I put the same mindset into coaching them as I do in my approach to the bar.

We train serious athletes ONLY with supportive parents! Without these two components the athlete will suffer!

If YOU want in YOU must earn it!

 

 

Benji Zorich continues to make big things happen! Benji was selected to play in the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Hockey League All-Star Game on January 23rd!

 

 

The games are played at Rostraver Ice Gardens.

If you follow DST you know Benji! Benji is a self motivated athlete who is laser focused in everything he does. It’s impressive to see this kid make such huge accomplishments at a young age. What makes Benji so successful is he has supportive parents that give him the push.

His younger brother Charlie is training with us in our Youth Development Program. (http://www.damanstrength.com/youth-bodyweight-and-development-program-2/)

DST wishes B-Real good luck as he represents his team, school, family and DST!!

Do big things Benji!

Over the past 2 months I have been running some small groups on the weekend for Youth Bodyweight and Development Program.

Dayln Brickner is an 11 year old football player from Beaver Falls. He has been in our program since day one and has been progressing each and every workout.

This week he will be traveling with his father to Dallas Texas to play in the Offense-Defense All-American Bowl at Cowboys Stadium!

What a huge honor to be selected in such a big game at such a big stadium! Dayln won the MVP last year for the best defensive back as he had 3 interceptions!

Pumped to see some of his hard work pay off!

DST athletes wish Dayln and his team the very best!

 

 

 

 

Sheldon Jeter has become a big name in basketball and highly recruited as well! Sheldon has all of the ability in the world when he steps on the basketball court.

Sheldon has combined his ability with a strong desire to be great! When you talk to this kid he speaks with only confidence in his voice. He understands what it takes. He understands the he will run into competition that is equal and more challenging. He wants to destroy each challenge and prove he is the best!

Here is Sheldon training and some highlights from his junior season. He played at about 195lbs. He is now running the courts at 212 lbs!

 

 

 

 

 

Nick Pettigrew of Beaver Falls Football was selected to the “Top 22″! Nick was selected as a 1st Team Defensive Lineman.

Nick came to DST to prepare for his junior year and earn a starting position. During each and every workout Nick is always mentally ready to train. Nick’s intensity in the gym carries over into practices and games. I had the opportunity to catch one of Nick’s games and he has a “motor” on him. He does whatever it takes to get to the ball.

It’s the same intensity and fight that helped Nick get better each and every day he trains. There are no short cuts with this football player. He puts in the time, effort and fight to earn his keep. Nick will be preparing for his senior season and hopes to propel his playing to even bigger heights!

Nick was selected by a panel of coaches that he plays against. It’s a big honor to be noticed when you play in the MAC Confernece!

Good Work Nick!!
