Results

I came to Dana after a back injury, scared to pick anything up. A year later I deadlift my bodyweight and don’t think about my back.

The Sunday check-ins keep me honest. Dana notices when I’m struggling before I say anything.
Mark, 52
Three short sessions a week fit around my shifts. I’m stronger now than I was at 30.
