Biography

Professional Baseball - France
 
“I wanted to drop you a note to thank you for all that Velocity Sports has done for me.  I am unequivocally pleased with the progress I made at Velocity, and I couldn’t be happier with the level of service and attention to detail with which your staff provided me.  I became noticeably stronger, faster, more flexible, and more agile. My balance improved, and I definitely developed sport-specific explosiveness that I feel will give me the edge over less conditioned athletes and allow me to play professional baseball this upcoming season.  Velocity’s greatest value add in my case was its ability to streamline a program that was rife with overtraining, get me focused on the right things, and monitor my progress accordingly.  The facilities at Velocity allowed me to perform workouts that I simply couldn’t do at other gyms.  Before I joined Velocity, I was making the common mistake of “just getting stronger” without a more focused approach to the demands of my sport, or as Bruce Lee put it, training “for show” instead of “for go.”  Velocity corrected those mistakes, and my significant improvements in the vertical leap (approx. 5 inches), broad jump (approx. 9 inches), and 40 (.31 seconds) all speak to the results that they produced.  I am a very happy customer, and I am happy to act as a reference for Velocity at any time, particularly for amateur athletes who want to take the next step.”
