  • "Coming back from an injury, Franklin designed specific workouts targeted to my recovery. Franklin has helped me not only get stronger and increase my mobility in the weight room, but also succeed on the field."

    — Ryan , Gym Client

  • "My 12 year old son has worked with Danny for several months, and his progress has been extraordinary. Danny has helped him transform his swing and stance with clear, disciplined instruction, and the gains in bat speed, strength, and balance are evident in every at bat."

    — Adam, Hitting Client

  • “I’ve been working with Franklin for almost 3 years now, and I’m easily in the best shape I’ve ever been. Over the years, Franklin has helped me develop into an overall stronger and more explosive pitcher/athlete, while sharing a bit of wisdom along the way. I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunities he’s helped me obtain over time, especially the opportunity to play baseball at the college level.”

    — Braedon, Pitching & Gym Client

  • "It was our first visit, but Danny took the time to explain and break down everything so a 14 year old could understand it. My son found it very helpful. Making another appointment for lessons, excited to see where this goes."

    — Rebecca, Hitting Client

  • “At @Baseballstrengthtank you will have the best environment around you with the best trainer that will push you past your limits to become the best athlete possible. I would highly recommend going here, it’s a great place to get better.”

    — Chris, Gym Client

  • "Danny is amazing and teaches everything from the mechanics of the game to the fine tuning of the swing. Most importantly he figures out exactly what makes my son tick and addresses the mental barriers to success. He's patient and knows how and when to push and praise. It's been a great experience and I highly recommend!"

    — Jessica, Hitting Client
