I started to train with Dean Hollingworth when I was 17 years old and within a year I gained 10 pounds of muscles. He kept adapting my program based on my improvements. We were working on my core, my strength and my speed. At the end of the first year, I was not only more powerful, fast and agile but I was injury free. All of my trainers were really impressed how my muscles protecting my ACl were stronger than all the other pro tennis players they have worked with. In addition to Dean's incredible knowledge, he has a work ethic like no other. We worked so hard during every single training while having good laughs in between exercises. I enjoyed so much my experience with this excellent physical coach that I will never forget it.

Ever since I started working with Dean 2 years ago, my fitness levels have not stopped improving. I have become a lot faster thanks to Dean, who places a lot of importance on my running technique. I have gradually felt stronger, less tired and faster on the tennis court, and consequently, I have won a lot more matches. The fun thing is that whenever a specific exercise becomes too easy, Dean will always find a way to make it more challenging, or swap it for a more difficult drill. Thanks to this, I went from being an averagely fit tennis player to winning the reputation of being one of the fittest guys in my age bracket, and my ranking has skyrocketed! We still have a lot to work on though...Thanks a lot Dean!

Being parents of three competitive athletes requires patience and an ability to find good support for your sports youths. Our three children compete at provincial or national level in three very different sports; Figure skating, Tennis and Rugby. Dean has taken the time to understand the sport and create individual programs for all three athletes. As they mature and gain the skills that are required he never stops pushing them. A part of the challenge is that the programs must take into consideration the natural development of the body. Dean adapts the programs to match what their bodies are able to while avoiding injuries and impacting their health in the future. A hard task master with the patience of a saint, Dean is the perfect recipe for helping young athletes in all disciplines to reach their full potential.

Dean entraîne Mickael depuis près de quatre ans et son programme de conditionnement fait partie intégrante de l'entraînement quotidien de tennis (3 heures par jour). Dean a permis à Mickael de surmonter de nombreuses blessures et d'accomplir d'excellents résultats en compétitions. J'apprécie son professionnalisme, son assiduité aux entraînements et de toujours avoir les mots justes pour faire sortir le maximum de mon « ado ».

Thanks Dean for all your patience with Mick !
