Testimonials
Jim Rothbauer, MPT, AT; Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy
"As a sports medicine physical therapist, I believe one of the most important qualities in choosing a strength and conditioning coach is knowledge of the foundational building blocks of function, anatomy, and performance. Mark is highly skilled and educated in these areas, which ultimately enhances performance and reduces the risk of injury."
Caroline Cole, DS – Kennesaw State Volleyball
“I have trained at DiNardo Sports Performance since my freshman year of high school. It has helped increase my agility, vertical, and my overall quickness on the court. Mark and all of the other coaches are very professional, personable, and educated on sports performance. They develop personal lifting programs specifically for volleyball and your position. This greatly benefitted me because I do not need everything hitters do. When I came to Kennesaw State this August as a freshman, I felt so comfortable in the weight room and was able to jump right in with the upper classmen because of the guidance I had at DiNardo Sports Performance. Mark and the coaches at DSP have taken my game to the next level and made me a completely better athlete while preparing me for Division I volleyball.”
Pam Stonich; Parent
"I started taking our daughter Katie to DiNardo Sports in hopes that we could avoid injuries during her volleyball season. In the previous year we spent over 5 months in physical therapy to help Katie recover from strained muscles and tendinitis. Our hope was to take a preventative approach and enroll her into the fitness program so that she would be prepared during the season and avoid injuries. Katie went the entire volleyball season with not only increased strength, stamina and endurance but also never had to go to physical therapy for any injuries. We will continue every year with DiNardo Sports. It is well worth the money and time."
Meredith Walker; HS Swim
"This is my third year working with DiNardo Sports. I originally started working out with them to build strength for swimming. Since working with DSP, I have seen an increase in both my speed and aerobic capacity. Even through an injury they are able to adapt my workouts to ensure I do not loose strength. The skills I have learned from the staff have translated to other disciplines of my life as well."
Kevin Pucket; Amateur Golfer
"I originally started working with DiNardo Sports to improve my performance in golf, but now I realize that I have improved my quality of life and overall wellness all thanks to a great coach like Marlene."
