What they are saying:
TIM TEBOW: “It’s so exciting to be a part of D1 in Tampa. When I graduated from Florida I had to find the perfect place to train to get ready for the (NFL) combine. I traveled all over the country in search of a facility that would fit my needs. Of all the places that I visited around the country, I found that D1 had everything I needed and it ended up being the right place for me."

“I love the training philosophy as well as the mentality the staff brings to work every day. They are so passionate about training, getting people in shape and improving their mind along with their focus on life. I was honored when I had the opportunity to become a part of the D1 family."

CHIPPER JONES: “I’m excited to be partnered with D1 in Tampa because I understand the importance of athletes training properly for their sport. Preparation is a key element to success, and I know that D1 will give athletes the opportunity to properly train and make them better across the board. It is an exciting partnership for me.”

DERRICK BROOKS: "It teaches you about the different training styles and what kids should put into their bodies and not put into their bodies. There's an emphasis on sportsmanship. And it affords them the same opportunity to be trained by a professional that the pros get. That's something I never had when I was a kid."

CHRIS JERICHO: "It's such an exciting honor to be part of D1 Tampa! After training around the world at an advanced level for over 25 years, I can honestly say this is the finest fitness facility that I have ever been a part of. I'm so stoked to see the city of Tampa become a more physically fit community as a result of D1 and I plan to train here as much as possible!
