DVRT ULTIMATE SANDBAG

Online Coaching

ONLINE COACHING

I began coaching in the fitness industry in 1999, Jessica became a licensed physical therapist in 2006 (she is younger and it takes longer to be a therapist;). Both of us started our careers with a great desire to make a positive impact on people’s lives. What we have done with DVRT is try to fulfill that goal in providing great education and science backed training programs. However, we also realized there was no greater ability to help people reach their goals than having more direct contact with them.

That is why we decided to offer personalized online coaching. While we realize we can’t be next to every person out there, we believed that technology allowed us a chance to be as interactive with people as possible without physically being right there with them.

This makes having professional, educated, and highly experienced coaches accessible to anyone that really has the goal of making a change in the quality of their lives. In doing so, we wanted to make sure we had a program that would fit each individual and allow you to have access to great training information that everyone deserves.

Check out the link above to see the plans we have available to help you achieve the results that you have always wanted to reach.

Testimonials:

“I started working with Jessica Bento in November. At this point in my life my workouts were all over the place due to working long days. Having Jessica program my workouts based off my physical assessment and available equipment has made a huge impact on my life. She checks in to see how my workouts are going and if I need to anything changed. If I have any questions she is always so fast with a response to make sure my experience is nothing but the best! I would highly recommend working with DVRT Online training with Jessica or Josh if you are wanting to take your fitness to the next level.” ~ Johnny R.

“Jessica designed for me a successful training program that addressed my physical limitation(knees) and met my goals to move well and stronger to handle the daily activities of life as an active-ager. My training program incorporated my at-home equipment and time schedule which helped me to stay committed to the program for 12 months! I am now much stronger and love doing squats. Thank you Jessica!!”
