Testimonials: Personal Fitness Coaching

“I have been a client and friend of Don’s for the past 10+ years and have truly enjoyed and benefitted from our workouts. With the onset of Covid 19 we shifted to remote sessions using Zoom. I’m thankful that we maintained our 2x/week sessions as we quickly learned how to ensure we maintained the same level of quality of our sessions. I highly recommend Don. You won’t be disappointed.”

Violet G.

“I have trained with Don twice a week for almost 20 years. I am never bored or feel in a rut because Don is constantly learning new theories and exercises that he can apply to both challenge me and benefit me in my workouts. When I have had minor injuries he has adapted my training to accommodate the injury and provided techniques and treatments that help the healing process. Don’s ability to adapt to circumstances has never been more apparent that during the current pandemic. We have conducted my training sessions virtually and have not missed a beat. I watch Don demonstrate exercises on his home gym equipment and he is then able to give me feedback to correct technique if needed. Don has taught me a lot over the years and I feel stronger and in better shape than many of my peers because of the work we have done together.”

“Don is an absolutely wonderful trainer and coach. He is extremely knowledgable and works with you in a way that never looks down on you. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is serious about their health and wellness.”

“Don Schlenbecker has spent the last 5 years leading the fall conditioning for our basketball program. I could not be happier with his ability to not only physically develop our players, but to be an extension of the culture that we pride our program on. I trust Don’s knowledge, passion, and attention to detail implicitly, and would recommend him to any coach looking to add this component to their program.”

Testimonials: Medical Professionals

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Don for 15 years and I consider him an innovative, inspiring and consummate professional strength coach. In an era where many in strength training approach their athletes with a ‘one size fits all,’ Don individualizes his training to fit the needs of each athlete and he begins training only after a thorough assessment. He embraces the medical profession’s philosophy of ‘first do no harm,’ which makes him an outlier in my opinion. Don has a tremendous style with his coaching that truly motivates athletes. His enthusiasm and passion for his work is palpable. I have entrusted Don with working with my daughter the last several years both in his group coaching and one on one and in her words “he has totally transformed my approach to basketball and made me the player that I am today.” High praise from a 15 year old. Don has impeccable character and he is incredibly knowledgeable and cutting edge. I give Don my highest recommendation for his work with teams and individuals.“

“My daughter, a club volleyball athlete, was a client of Don’s for strength and stability to prevent injury. Don trained her with an amazing ability to create exercises specific not only for her areas of weakness but that conditioned her for her specific sport. As a physical therapist for over 18 years, not only was I impressed at the knowledge and expertise that was brought to her training sessions, but Don conducted one of the most inclusive and specific evaluations, looking at the body as a whole and functionally, that I have ever seen. Needless to say I was quite impressed and will continue to use his expertise for strength and conditioning.”
