“My name is David Zwanetz. I am a Team Lloyd Irvin Purple Belt training and competing out of Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Elkridge, Maryland. I can honestly say that after six (6) weeks of ASP circuit routines, I have never felt stronger, faster, and healthier than I feel right now. Somehow D’Angelo has found the perfect balance of strength training and conditioning to allow muscle to be put on my frame without excess weight being gained. I have been strength training for a majority of my life and never have I seen and felt results so rapidly. My wife, Cathy Tran-Zwanetz, Lloyd Irvin Blue Belt competitor, has literally been transformed during our six week love/hate relationship with the ASP routines. Cathy was able to shed ten (10) pounds while at the same time put on tons of lean muscle. Cathy’s explosiveness and raw strength have improved 100%. Her confidence in the gym has been catapulted as well. I give my absolute stamp of approval to ASP and D’Angelo and simply cannot wait to see what will happen after nine (9) months of steady work as Cathy and I work towards our goal of winning the 2011 World Championships of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Thank you D’Angelo!!!”
