“I began working with Dakota to transform my physique, but the real value he's brought me is an education on how to live a consistently healthy lifestyle. He taught me how to take control of my body in the weight room and especially the kitchen; I had no idea how I needed to eat in order to achieve my goals and he taught me how to do it. My life has transformed more than I ever thought possible through fitness; I've become a happier, healthier, and more confident person and I owe a huge part of that to Dakota and his support. I highly recommend working with him to everyone who wants to make positive changes in their life and become the best version of themselves.”

“If you want results, Dakota is your man. He’s second to no one when it comes to fitness and body sculpting. But, more than that, he is passionate about helping people live life to the full (John 10:10). This isn’t just a job for him and it is not just about helping clients get ripped. That is just part of helping his people live the lives they were made for! I highly Recommend him”

“I’ve been working with Dakota for just over 8 months now and can honestly say I am in the best shape of my life. I’ve trained consistently for almost 13 years, but Dakota has taken my training to a different level and focused on my desired results. Dakota is knowledgeable, professional and most importantly, produces results. There are no shortcuts in his programs, but that’s why you’ll achieve lasting results and overall health, rather than short term success. If you’re ready to actually see a return on the investment you’re putting into the gym and your overall health, Dakota is your guy.”

“Dakota has been instrumental in helping me reach my fitness goals. He cares for every one of his clients. Amongst everything he provides throughout his monthly programs, his individual attention and care for his clients is what stood out to me. He takes time every day to check in, answer questions, and make you feel you’re receiving the proper coaching. On top of everything, he’s genuinely a great person and wants to see you succeed. 10/10 recommend!”

“I worked with Dakota for four months before my wedding, and it was an absolute pleasure. He made me an individualized plan and gave me more attention than I deserved! He promptly answered all of my questions, and he did so cheerfully, intelligently, and in such a way that motivated me to get results! Cut a lot of fat and gained a lot of muscle - much more than I would have without him! I don't know that I could possibly give him a higher review! Very satisfied, and I would recommend him to anyone!”

“Easy 5/5. I had felt like I was plateauing with my fitness goals and decided to contact Dakota and am so grateful I did. If you’re contemplating improving your lifestyle, DLF is absolutely the way to go. He tailored a meal and exercise plan to my unique schedule and I finally started seeing some significant changes, thanks to his coaching. Additionally, he’s always supportive, friendly, and all around a great dude; I can’t recommend him enough.”

“Working with Dakota was seriously so wonderful - not only is he knowledgeable with nutrition but he has such a good heart. He was so easy to talk to & non judgmental while I was working through some of my mental & emotional issues regarding my body. He held such a safe place for me to work through my own journey. I recommend him if you are looking for someone who is invested not only in your physical health but also emotional well being as well. I can't recommend him enough.”

“Dakota cares about the WHOLE person. He continues to push me to understand health and fitness and live it every day while reaching my goals. He always checks in with both your fitness/nutrition and another goal you’ve chosen. If you’re looking for a trainer who will push you to be your best physically and all around, then Dakota is your guy!”

“I've been working with Dakota a little over a month now, and I can say that he is most certainly one of the better, if not the best, trainers out there. He does his absolute best to make any meal and workout plan 100% tailored for you, and he's always available to answer any question you have regardless of how minor it seems. Plus as an added bonus he'll send you words of encouragement when you realize it's leg day and you don't wanna go. Seriously though, if you want a trainer that is the embodiment of what a personal trainer should be, Dak is the guy you need.”

"Dakota is one hell of a trainer and knows what he is talking about. Worked with him about 2 years ago and it been the best decision of my life. He’s is 100 percent on board to trying to make you a better person and checks up on you progress frequently definitely worth it if you’re trying to change your lifestyle.”

“Dakota is a great trainer and coach, His knowledge in both nutrition and training is unparalleled. Whether you are just starting to take nutrition and training seriously or whether you are working to break plateaus Dakota can definitely help. His one on one contact every day was crucial in helping keep me motivated throughout my training. Very good programs and a very kind person.”

“Dakota embodies his vision to help people get to the next level of complete health. His greatest strength is that he lives out his mission in action, not words. I've personally benefitted and been inspired by his courageous witness and upfront challenge to refuse to settle for mediocrity. He's sees the greatness within his clients and helps them see it as well. I couldn't be happier about the decision to have him as my trainer.”

“Highly recommend Dakota’s program. Dakota’s very educated and well rounded on nutrition and fitness. He gives a great custom meal and workout plan based on your needs at the fraction of the cost of a personal trainer, but most importantly he’s motivating and always available to ask questions to no matter what time of day. What really makes him stand out is he’s committed to helping you whenever you need it. If you’re trying to be the best version of yourself health wise Dakota is the guy to get you there.”

“Dakota is incredible! I’ve never seen my body change so much thanks to his customized workouts! As a beginner, Dakota answered my millions of questions about the workouts and how to do things. He’s also been incredibly encouraging throughout when I’ve been critical of myself. He’s an awesome trainer and gives his all to his clients. You won’t regret going with him as your trainer!”

“Awesome guy to work with! Had a great time with his challenging but as well enjoyable workout and diet program. He's definitely invested in your health and takes the time to ask regularly how's the program and tailors it according to need, ability and limit. His programs are not a buy and you get the same workout and diet plan everyone gets; Dakota really tailors the whole program for you at an affordable cost.”

"Not only is Dakota an excellent trainer and very knowledgeable in his expertise, he is a genuinely good guy and always has your back, in and out of the gym. I was able to hit goals and see results previously thought impossible with my body type, and along the way I felt encouraged and empowered. The meal plans are easy, (delicious, even), and the workouts are challenging and rewarding. Highly recommend this man to anyone from any background. If you put in the effort, he will help you change your life!"

“Can’t say enough good things about Dakota. His level of knowledge, personal care, love for the game, and dedication to his clients are just a few of the things that make him a leader in his industry. I’ve worked as a trainer for over a decade, unfortunately I see more bad than good in this profession. For that reason this is one of only two reviews I’ve been willing to write for trainers. I can personally vouch for him to the highest level. With Dakota you know you’re in good hands.”

If you want to be motivated into liking working out, then Dakota is your trainer. His knowledge, and personal attention to you and your needs in helping you succeed is great and we are not even in the same state! He takes pride in helping you and gives you his personal attention like you are his only client. I am doing great thanks to Dakota, 7 weeks 14 pounds down and feeling like a new woman. Thank you Dakota. Remembering its not a sprint its a marathon...”

“I knew Dakota from high school and was am blown away by how much he's transformed himself, physically and spiritually. Saw that he had an opening back in June 2019 and I knew I had to work with him. He's incredible at supporting and encouraging me through the whole process. Never lifted before in my life, but with his meal and workout plans he's created for me, I've seen some incredible changes and am in the best shape of my life now. His plans are fun and he's great at keeping things varied and interesting. Can't wait to see how far I'll go with his help in the future!”
