I was first introduced to John Carlozzi after my sophomore football season at Darien High School. I had been told by the coaches that I would be fighting for a starting position the next year and that I needed to get stronger and be in better shape. I immediately started working with John three days a week after school and then once on the weekends at his gym. John had a very personalized approach for me and knew exactly what I had to work out in order for me to earn a spot on the varsity football team. When the season came around the following year, I was able to start at both offensive guard and defensive tackle. I had become exponentially stronger over the offseason working with John and he is, in large part, the reason I was able to succeed as a player. In addition to training myself, John also works with most of the other players on the football team in season and out of season making sure that we are keeping up our strength and conditioning. He pushes everyone to work their hardest and reach their true potential. In the last two years, we have gone undefeated and won back to back State Championships. John has played an integral role in that and he enabled us to be the strongest and best conditioned team on the field.
