I trained with Danny a couple of times, and he is a great personal trainer. He definitely knows what he’s talking about. He tells you what parts of your muscles that you’re working out. He also pushes you to your maximal limits!
He pushes you to the furthest you can go without hurting, straining, or pulling anything.
He
likes to make you feel comfortable in front of him, and he’s even funny too.
He's a great trainer and if you don't hire him then you won't get into shape the
way you want.

As a former high school wrestler and a competitive ice hockey player, I was looking for a high intensity, off-ice workout to keep in shape during the off-season. In a couple of sessions with Danny, I was able to vastly improve my
strength, balance and conditioning far beyond anything team training could
offer. With his knowledge and energy, I could accomplish goals pertaining to MY strength and weight. The variety of exercises and workouts keep the body guessing and he places emphasis on form and flexion of every muscle of the body. Danny's workouts are boosting me into the peak physical condition I am aspiring for.

I lost inches off my waist and my arms look better than ever! When I was introduced to Danny, I was a hesitant to try the workout because trainers in the past have never produced me the results I desired. He promised me that the workouts would be different and I was surprised and refreshed to see that it was. He was very easy to talk and comfortable to be around.
The workouts are tough but fulfilling as I feel as though I pushed my body every time I exit the gym. I can see a difference in my body as clothes are fitting better than ever. Danny honestly brings the best energy and motivation into a workout I have ever seen
and that passion has really enabled me to be successful in my quest.

As a police officer being physically fit is very important in my daily routine.
However, being able to maintain that physical fitness is even more important.
When I decided to put myself on a workout program I had no idea what I was
doing. Since working with Danny
I have not only seen the results I was looking
for, but my knowledge in how to maintain my fitness has greatly improved.
I highly recommend anyone trying to improve their physical fitness to team up with
Danny and let him develop a fitness program that's right for you. His knowledge,
compassion, and attention to detail, are just a few things that set him apart
from all the other trainers out there. Trust me when I say you won't be
disappointed …..I know I'm not!

I've trained with Danny for 5 months and I'm astonished at the results. Being overweight for as long as I can remember, I wasn't too confident that even having a personal trainer would help in losing weight.
After the first session, I realized how bad of shape I was in. Danny laid out a plan for me and with his guidance plus dedication, I lost over 20lbs within the first 6 weeks and went from a 38 inch waist to a 33 inch! I couldn't believe my eyes. Not only does he keep you motivated and focused on your goals but most importantly, he understands your own needs and pushes you beyond your limits at your own rate. He knows that everyone is different and require different methods in achieving their goals.
I've never had so much energy and confidence in my whole life. As long as you're dedicated to your goals, Danny will be there to help every step of the way. You won't regret working with him, I guarantee it.

Are you satisfied
with your training with Danny?
Absolutely! Danny has
taught me how to eat properly and exercise to achieve my desired goals. He has
helped me to overcome my gym intimidation, which had previously prevented me
from reaching my goals. Not only did Danny make training comfortable, but he
also exceeded my expectations and made it fun and painless by switching up
exercises on a regular basis as well as through conversation.
How much weight
and body fat have you lost?
I have lost 10 pounds
while working with Danny. My initial weight was 124 lbs. and my current weight
is 114 lbs. I lost a total of 8% body fat
Would you
recommend Danny to your friends?
Definitely. I've had
awesome training with Danny and would recommend him to all my friends and
family. I've actually recommended him another client who's signed up with him
and is enjoying the benefits of his training.
What was your most
memorable moment in training?
There are several
memorable moments that I feel captured my training with you so I'll include them
all and you can choose whichever you'd like to post on your
site.
I definitely feel
that the one time the other trainer (some bodybuilder) questioned what you were
putting me on that had enabled me to get my great results was definitely
memorable. I don't know if you recall this but it definitely made me feel that
raining with you was totally worthwhile. To hear you rooting for me and saying
that I'm making some progress or family members saying, "wow, you've lost some
weight" is one thing, but to hear it from another professional trainer,
regardless of who it was, just made me feel like wow, others are noticing...and
not just ordinary people. I guess it just validated both our hard work and goes
to show that your training skills are great! You know how to help people achieve
their goals and you've definitely changed the way I approach food and the gym.
Other memorable moments that are trivial but is unique to training with you
would be the Carlos stories, Carlos part II, and you saying "squeeze your butt
or else no one will!"
What was your
favorite exercise?
That's hard to say
because they were all so much harder than they looked, but I'd have to say doing
the lunges outside, where I worked both my arms and lets (not just plain lunges,
but the ones where you push the barbells above your head and work out your
arms). When I would get to the top of the hill, I'd be exhausted and my legs
would be burning, but it felt so refreshing knowing that I just burnt a lot of
calories and am pushing myself to the max. It's hard to do this exercise at a
regular gym because of the space confinement so getting to do it at a private
gym is another perk about personal training - it's flexible and you can do just
about anything you want to meet your goals.
What is the best
aspect of Danny the trainer?
The best aspect of
Danny is how he makes you forget you're at the gym and working out. You may be
sweating like crazy and your legs may be ready to give in because of the five
extra squats he threw in, but the conversations and his encouraging words just
made you laugh it off and forget about the pain.
What makes Danny
different from other trainers?
What distinguishes
Danny from other trainers is how he listens to you and molds his training to
help you achieve your goals. Training was initially very uncomfortable for me
because I feared going to the gym. However, Danny took this into consideration
and gradually helped me overcome my gym intimidation through small steps.
Initially he would walk me to the weight area and select my weights for me while
I watched from behind, but soon I was able to do it by myself. Just like when I
first started training, I hadn't the slightest clue how to workout and now I am
self-sufficient at the gym, and can plan my own workouts. Danny doesn't make you
feel inferior like other trainers might by standing there and looking
unapproachable but is rather extremely encouraging and supportive.

I have always been an active person. I played multiple sports, worked out at the gym on a daily basis, and ate somewhat healthy. Although I went to the gym often, I never really had a game plan. On usual days, I would just lift weights just like everybody else. Even though I didn't know much about working out, I had an interest in it.
I began training with Danny because I wanted to become physically fit in order to become a firefighter and also just to gain knowledge in how to "work out". Danny is very motivational and even though the workouts are extremely painful, just the thought of it being beneficial to you and your body makes you want to keep coming back.
He is very knowledgeable and whether it is workout based or nutrition- based, he has the answers to every question I ask. If you give him an image of how you want to look, he will make you look like the image just as long as you listen to what he says. I have trained with him for roughly 6 months and loved every minute of it. I highly recommend Danny to be your personal trainer.

Before training with Danny, I was probably in the worst shape than I have ever been. I've wanted to start being active in the gym but didn't want to start on my own without having any knowledge as to how to gain muscle mass and dieting healthy.
I've been training with him for a solid 6 months and he is hands down probably the best trainer I will ever come across. He offers methods to keep you in shape with endless workout methods that are fun and exciting, as to doing the same thing everyday at the gym on your own. In 6 months I've reached my goal weight and surpassed it with gaining a lot of muscle mass.
Choosing the right personal trainer is very important; you're not going to want a trainer that doesn't give his full effort on you. Whatever your goals may be, he will get you there. Having him as my personal trainer is one of the best decisions I've made, make it yours.

I have always been a fit person but I never could take my body to the next
level. I decided to try Danny’s workout and I realized that the training methods
learned in bodybuilding magazines were not always the most effective in
developing a great body. Danny brought to my attention the vagueness of
bodybuilding magazines by customizing workouts that targeted my problem areas.
The dieting and nutritional information has also been pivotal in my change.
Danny brings enthusiasm, energy, and great detail into each work as he explains
the specifics of each motion. I am proud of how much I have accomplished in such
a short period of time.

I gained 10 pounds of muscle so far! I have been skinny kid all my life and I always went into the gym without a game plan. Working out following the methods I have seen utilized by people around me. When I met Danny through a friend, he emphasized the importance of nutrition and a workout plan. He gave me a lot of attention in keeping track of my food logs and helping me find a workout planned that worked.
I feel amazing as I have never been bigger in my life and I am very proud of my accomplishment so far.

I worked out by myself but never had a plan that I followed. I just went into the gym and ran on the treadmill for as long as could. After struggling to tone up my body, I was referred to Danny by a friend so I decided to give it a try. Danny is very knowledgeable with his training and really explains each workout. He pushes me very hard but also is able to know when I hit my limits. I feel and look fantastic, people have told me I look better than ever.
I recommend Danny because of his energy and knowledge. If you want a trainer that knows what he’s talking about, go with Danny!

Before I trained with Danny, I was afraid to try new things. I always thought
staying lean meant eating close to nothing but Danny helped me realize the
importance of proper nutrition.
With his guidance I feel more energized than
ever! I look better and my skin tone has also improved.
The thing that sets
Danny’s training apart from other trainers is his energy and knowledge. He is
always positive and pushes me further than I thought possible. Thanks Danny!

I lost 40 lbs since I started to workout with Danny.
It has been a journey but
the life change I have decided to take has truly been amazing. Food has always
been my venue of escape as I ate continuously as a source of fulfillment.
Danny explained to me the importance of proper nutrition and how working out has to be
a lifestyle change.
I decided to put the burgers and pizzas down and really put
forth an effort for change.
After couple months of arduous effort, fat began melting away as I started
seeing definition throughout my body. I am truly grateful for meeting Danny as
his upbeat mood and positive energy has allowed me to look better than I ever
have. I feel like I have met a great friend as well a great teacher.

As a professional trainer, Danny has a strong passion when it comes to
optimizing personal fitness, emphasizing that exercising and eating right is
more than just about wanting to look good externally, but also stressing the
importance of forming and maintaining lifelong habits to improve overall quality
of health. I've done personal training with trainers in public gyms in the past, but was always disappointed
with the quality of their sessions.
Since I started training with Danny, I've
gained a newfound sense of enjoyment in exercising. His motivational spirit,
attentiveness, knowledge about fitness, and level of professionalism have exceeded my expectations in a
trainer.
He focuses on the quality of every work out, which are specially
designed to fit every individual's personal fitness goals, and consistently
caters to the needs of each of his clients. It's been a privilege to train with
Danny, and choosing to have definitely made a positive impact on my life.

Though I knew the fundamental methods in acquiring that desired physique, Danny Lee helped me to exert my full potential so that I can always challenge my own limitations. Just when I think that I have successfully completed one set, he lets me know that I still have enough energy to move onto another set. Most people struggle in controlling their resting periods; however, Danny controls the pace of the workout very efficiently, making sure our heart rate continues to beat at an optimal rate. From
one session alone, I realized that I have not been raising my true potential strength and perseverance. I discovered that my end result should not be invested in how much time I spend at the gym, but give forth 100% of my body in every set I aim to complete. Before I knew it, there were already heavy beads of sweat on my face as well as my entire back. The sacrifice that I made on that day motivated me to disregard the temporary pain, and focus straight on ahead towards my goal.

I was a little hesitant at first working out with Danny. I was intimidated by
his passion and knowledge for what he was doing… After the first training
session, though, I felt completely at ease. He let me go at my own pace, but
pushed me when I needed it. He was always very encouraging and easy to talk to.
The way that he knew exactly what to do when I described my goal to him was very
cementing. I loved working out with him and encourage others to do the same!

I've been pretty thin throughout college until I started working after graduation. Sitting in the office all day long and eating not only made me gain fat, but it always made me feel lethargic. I was starting to lose confidence, and most importantly my health. Since I started to work out with Danny, I feel much more energized, confident and stronger.
I really began to see the visible difference after about four work outs with Danny.
I definitely recommend him to anyone who is serious about getting in shape!

I've seen faster and more noticeable results in the one month I've been with Danny than I ever did working out on my own. I used to not really know what I was doing when I went to the gym; I'd just mess around on the machines, but never really felt like I was making much progress. The expertise of a personal trainer is just what I needed.
He knows which exercises work for me and which don't, and makes sure I'm always using proper technique. Most importantly, he keeps me motivated and pushes me a lot harder than I would push myself.
