“ I started working with Dawson 3 years ago. I was always naturally fast but lacked endurance and explosiveness. As a forward at the highest level I wanted to get every edge I could against the big defenders . After just 2 weeks working with Dawson my fitness improved tremendously and gained explosive speed. If you want to improve whether it’s strength , speed or fitness Dawson Green is the guy. “

“When it comes to getting it done, Dawson is the best. His workouts push you not only physically but mentally and internally to where you become a better athlete and person. You become disciplined, consistent, and an absolute ANIMAL! Dawson gives you a challenge every time you’re with him and he’ll even do the workouts with you as motivation and support. I would not be the athlete and person I am without Dawson! There is nobody better than DG ELITE!”

"I’ve been training with Dawson since 2019 when I was in high school, I wanted to get better and faster with running to reach my goal of being recruited to run for a Division 1 cross country and track team. Dawson was the right person to go to because he pushed me to do my best and with his workouts I was able to succeed in every race I ran, and then being recruited to run collegiate level for Siena College. Now, I compete in Spartan races which is all thanks to Dawson for encouraging me to do it and helping me train so I am able to complete it! His training makes the uncomfortable become comfortable."

"​Training with Dawson has completely transformed my fitness journey over the past year and a half or so. When I first started, I felt like I had lost a lot of my speed and strength due to an injury, and I wasn’t sure how to get it back. While working with him in person, Dawson pushed me beyond my limits every session and challenged me in ways I didn’t think I was capable of. Because of that, I’ve regained my strength, rebuilt my speed, and feel better than I have in a long time, so to anyone who’s serious about improving their fitness and unlocking their full potential DG Elite Fitness is the perfect place to make it happen."
