I have been playing ice
hockey for eight years. During the past three years I
improved with each passing season but I still lacked
the jump and speed required to achieve the top levels
of play. Through the ESP program, I have never felt more
on top of my game than I do now. With “It’s Time”,
there is more explosion in my skating and I have been
winning more one on one battles for the puck. I have
noticed a dramatic increase in my overall ability on
the ice and my recovery time between shifts is phenomenal.
The people at ESP care about their
athletes and really personalize each aspect of the individual’s
programs. This is why I love coming here. They demand
the most from each person while making it fun and rewarding.
They identified my strengths and weaknesses and based
on their evaluation, established a program specifically
for my needs. I can honestly say that I would never have
attained the level of play without their assistance.

As my junior year in high school came to an end, my basketball
career was continuously fluctuating between being good
and becoming great. My strengths lead my team to the first
round of playoffs, but my weaknesses were still obvious
enough to be exposed and exploited. Going into my senior
year, I worked hard on my weaknesses and strengths, improving
them equally. I averaged 20 points per game and 10 rebounds
per game and advanced to the second round of Districts.
Although my senior year was a successful year, I felt
I could have been a lot better for my team. My defense
was my weakness on the court and Explosive Sports Performance
helped me hone in on the weaknesses and improve them 100%.
I will be attending 2001 (Northeast Conference Champions)
Monmouth University on a full athletic scholarship. My
quickness has improved tremendously as well as my strengths.
In result to the hard work and specific workouts that are
tailored to my preferred sport, great heights can be reached.

I began working with Dave in the middle of the summer of 2001 and I already
have great results in just 3 months of work. I have gotten stronger, faster,
and I have a higher vertical jump. I have become more flexible, and more
confident on the basketball court. He has me enjoying coming to work out
when I once hated it more than anything. He also works with you as an individual,
instead of a large group. I would encourage working with Dave to anyone.

My experience in training with Dave Brixius has turned into a great investment
physically, mentally, and emotionally. Dave has personally helped me create
a balance in my life. I started working out with Dave to prepare myself for
Division I College Football. Without a doubt in my mind I feel ready to make
this big jump in my life. Physically Dave has helped me become more explosive,
quicker, faster, stronger, and more knowledgeable about my own body! I have
gained 15 pounds of solid muscle mass and have also put 200 plus pounds on
my squat in just over 4 months! Mentally he has helped me focus my energy
in being disciplined and concentrate on the details, like correct technique
and the importance of resting my body for the correct amount of time. Dave
has been a great asset in helping me reach my maximum potential.

In the transition period from High School to College there are many tools that
I feel I needed in order to prepare for the next level. Although I did improve
a great bit through the years in High School, I still have a lot of weaknesses
that need to be polished up. That’s why when Dave offered his new workout
program to me it was right on point. When I met with him in April I could
tell from the interview that he knew exactly what he was doing. He mentioned
all of my weak areas and offered methods to improve them. In order to be
effective at the next level he mentioned working on my hands, shoulders,
knees, strength, speed and coordination. So we began to get ready to work
right away.
As the summer of 2001 is coming to
a close, I feel a lot more confident now that I have
been working on my weaknesses. Through the workout sessions
that I have experienced at Explosive Sports Performance
I can tell a difference in my skills. Dave has turned
right into all of my weaknesses and has showed me how
to prevent them in the future. It has given me a sense
of hope that if I keep up the hard work, anything I put
in my mind can be accomplished. Also, the atmosphere
at Explosive Sports Performance has been great. Many
determined athletes come from all over the area to workout
and reach their goals. They are always there pushing
themselves and encouraging each other. That’s
the atmosphere that I have found worked best for me. Well,
in conclusion I would like to thank Dave for everything
and I recommend this program to anyone.
