DST Code of Ethics

I want to discuss the DST Code of Ethics and expectations from both the athletes and the parents. This coaching facility will help your son/daughter not only become a better athlete but also a better person. The relationships between coaches, athletes and parents we have built will last a lifetime. Our coaching facility is built behind trust, integrity and morals that we want to carry over into our athletes. Becoming a member of Daman’s Strength Training is a commitment from both the athletes and the parents. We need 100% support from parents to make sure that our athletes do not skip workouts, follow a proper diet and do not make excuses. This is not a membership. This is an investment for long term athletic ability!

The coaching at Daman’s Strength Training will help your athlete reach new levels of athletic ability. We expect the athletes to be prepared to train and ready to be pushed. Not every athlete is accepted into our program. The athletes accepted are expected to follow the gym expectations and come to each workout on time.

This is where the parent relationship is most important. We need supportive parents that give the athletes the push at home that we are giving to the athletes in the gym.

Cancelling on the day of a workout will result in the loss of that workout session. I am an easy-going coach but when parents and athletes cancel this can become a major issue trying to reschedule workouts. Becoming the best athlete you can be is a commitment of time and effort. Daman’s Strength Training is a four-month commitment. When athletes and parents do not fulfill the four-month commitment that athlete will be put on a waiting list if they decide to rejoin our coaching facility.

We only accept supportive parents and competitive athletes.

Thank You,

Rick Daman

Daman’s Strength Training is the place for the serious athlete to train. The gym’s atmosphere and Rick’s training knowledge and the devotion to the kids, makes the athletes want to work hard. Training at DST has made Kyle feel physically and mentally stronger. He has become a more confident wrestler which has lead him to be selected as the team captain. We, as parents have noticed two changes over the past 5 months since Kyle has been training at DST. Kyle’s overall physical appearance has changed dramatically. Without even flexing you can see his 6-pack and muscle definition in this shoulders and arms. In addition to the physical change, he has also changed mentally. In the past, when Kyle wrestled, he would mentally shut down if he got caught in a tough spot which would normally lead to a loss. Now, after training at DST, Kyle is a different wrestler. He now works through all of his matches with confidence.

I’ve known Rick for several years as he has now trained both of my sons. Jesse has been training with Rick for two years. His strength, attitude and love for working out continue to grow. Rick has reinforced a strong work ethic in my son. That work ethic has helped Jesse pack on 40 lbs of muscle and he continues to see improvements in his strength and mental toughness. With Rick’s continued support we are positive that Jesse will do big things on the football field this season.

With Utmost Respect,

Jim Battaglia, Parent of Jesse Battaglia

Training at DST has helped me gain the confidence I need. Before I started training I had a lack of confidence. When I started 16 months ago I was only working with light sandbags and now I’ve got my bench up for 205 lbs and my dead lift is at 405 lbs. I have built my way up on the kettle bells first starting out at the 26 lb kettle bells and now I breeze through the 70 lb kettle bell. I recommend this gym because the atmosphere is intense and the other athletes around you will push you.
