I always knew of DFS gym since I passed it daily but had the assumption that it was a private gym for only guy, I was way off! One evening I was driving past and saw Nick (the owner) out in front of the gym with a group of women in what looked like a boot camp. Having previously taken a boot camp at another facility and knowing I loved it, I immediately reached out to him. This was right after a double hernia repair surgery for me, and with that came some excess weight gain, I was desperate to get off! I would be lying if I didnt say that initially I only intended to take the 6 week boot camp course and return to planet fitness (for financial reasons). As with anything new you do I was nervous to get started but Nick was so incredibly awesome and all the ladies I did boot camp with welcomed me right in, were supportive, and at all different levels of fitness/ ability. Before I knew it I was down 30 lbs and signing up for my next 6 week course. Like I mentioned I was also recovering from intensive surgery and Nick was so accommodating with it. He knew how to help me push myself and challenge myself without doing harm to my stomach. He is great with any injuries or issues you come across while working out, he will switch things up, focus on a different area or modify the move to avoid the discomfort or injury. Ive been with Nick and DFS for about a year and a half now and I couldnt imagine doing it any other way. I was always the person that struggled with weight, with staying active, finding what I liked to do for exercise and sticking with it. After being with DFS I am so much more active outside of the gym on my own, I have never been more happy and confident with my body, I am in the best shape of my life and Im pretty darn strong too! Nick holds me accountable, challenges me to push myself both inside the gym and out. He has a lot of knowledge and is educated /trained on nutrition and how to do the movements the correct way. I would refer and recommend anyone I know to go to him, he is the best! Best investment youll ever make is joining DFS gym.

I had surgery on my ankle about 3 years ago and the recovery process just wasnt going the way I wanted. As a "Weekend Warrior" athlete I was beginning to lose hope that I would be able to get back to where I wanted. I knew I need some strength training to get my legs back in balance, but I found myself just poking around the gym without much of a plan or motivation. I decided to start working with Nick and I got way more than I bargained for - and I love it! No doubt youre going to work hard and sweat probably more than you are used to at your current gym because Nick is going to creates programs that are challenging (squats anyone?), always changing (typically about a 3 week rotation) and fun (sometimes we create our own conditioning programs on the fly). After working with Nick for nearly 3 years I cant believe how much money I wasted on local gym memberships. One of the best aspects of the gym is its community - its encouraging, fun and competitive. There is a good balance of people in their 20s, 30s and 40s; male and female; beginner to advanced. If youre a beginner Nick will have you go through a "Foundations" class to get you through your initial soreness and acquainted with the basic movements. Some time slots are more in-demand than others, so until he gets some bigger space, youll need to be proactive with scheduling and make sure that you dont skip because youre not in the mood.

As a life long athlete who had fallen into some bad habits, I was looking for a kickstart to revive my regular exercise program and found DFS. I could tell after my first workout that Nick is extremely knowledgeable and personable and even though I was sore I could not wait to go back again. In the few weeks since I started, I have learned tons of new moves, improved my form, and expanded my understanding of how we can use our diet to fuel our bodies in the best possible way. Nicks workouts are always creative and fun and he constantly focuses on motivating you to challenge yourself. I highly recommend the Foundations class series to anyone looking to try out DFS. It will give you a great feel for the gym and what Nick can do for you!

Nick Haught, owner trainer at DFS gym has really pushed me mentally and physically in such positive ways making me feel capable of accomplishing anything!! Everyone is like family, we push each other in such positive motivation that EVERY workout is FUN!! I couldnt ask for anything more. I sweated more the 1st week here than I have my whole life!! Nick gets excited and loves seeing the sweat pour off all his clients!! As the saying goes "sweat is fat crying"!! Come try for yourself, you wont be disappointed!!!
