Ive been with Dan for about 6 weeks now, and can honestly say Ive made the right choice in choosing a well experienced and knowledgable personal trainer. My body has been improving in strength and in aesthetics just in the short amount of time I have been training with him. He has been very professional and is dedicated to helping me reach my goal. The equipment is high grade and Dan has taught me how to lift and weight train properly. I cant wait to see how much Ive improved in the next few months. I 100% recommend, Dan as a personal trainer and as a nutritionist. Both of them combined and I can guarantee you the certainty that your goal will be met!

When I first began my quest for a personal trainer, DC Training Systems surfaced and I instantly knew who this was. I had heard a great deal about Dan and his unorthodox training methodology before even meeting him through several co-workers and friends. Upon meeting and training with Dan I can undoubtly say that the rumors about him are true --- Dan is the real deal folks. If you're looking for a typical personal trainer, then Dan isn't for you. But if you want an exercise professional that bears extensive knowledge and a skill-set that is second to none, then look no further than DC Training Systems. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

I've been training with Dan so far for 4 months and he really helped to change my physique. I improved my posture within the first few weeks and he focused on the weakest parts of my body that needed improvement 🍑 Dan is both an excellent trainer and an exceptional person. He really puts a signature effort on every client individually and pushes you to achieve your goals. 💪🏻 If you need a personal trainer you have come to the right place!

Having been a frequenter of the personal training circuit, I thought I knew what I was looking for: a knowledgable professional who not only loved what he did, but exemplified his word through his practice. Pretty standard when consulting a professional right? Upon meeting Dan Chavez and discussing my fitness goals, I received that and much more. Not only did he conduct a comprehensive analysis of my needs and current fitness status, but he did so with a kindness and silent authority that makes one believe that tiptop health and the ultimate physique is achievable. Through several months of training, it became apparent that having your trainer be accountable to his actions is nowhere near as valuable as having him help you become accountable to yours. That is the difference with DC Training Systems--the expertise and skill are bone deep. It is a difficult feat to try and find someone as varied in thier workouts or helpful with your meal plan or one who pushes you beyond your own preconceived notions of limitation. Dan is the most well-rounded, thorough and gifted professional I have encountered. My only regret is not having gone to him sooner.

Dan is an excellent personal trainer. He took his time to develop a program just for me. It's been awesome ! I thought I couldn'the workout, I have two bad knees, had my ACL replaced in one and the other is strained from over work. It's been an excellent experience my knees don't hurt and I'm getting stronger. I'm a massage therapist and it's helping me out tremendously with my job. I'll be keeping DC training System in my life because it is life changing. Thank You Dan L
