You never know how much you love something until it is taken away from you - isn't that what people say? I found this out when my doctors told me I had an enlarged aorta and I needed to have surgery. I was to stop working out immediately and recovery from surgery was going to be about 12 weeks. If you are wondering whether Team Adrenaline is right for you, read my story.
So I met Paul at the Shady Grove Y after one of my "workouts" in the gym in Spring 2009. I was feeling a little tired, thinking I had just had a tough workout with the weights. I was standing by the front destk and Paul introduces himself. He told me a bunch of people do this workout outside and I should check it out. Since the first one was free, I thought "what the heck" and gave it a shot. I thought I was in good shape. I mean, I lifted weights and everything, right? Team Adrenaline was 60 minutes of torture, pain, HELL - all wrapped into one. My lungs and legs burned. My shoulders were shaking. I could barely walk afterwards. I could not complete all the sets of the workout. The feeling that I was going to puke was right there. I was very humbled. There were people older than me that were just cruising around me, lapping me. They didn't look like they were in any pain. They made it look so easy. I did not come back for a long time. But I did do some running - I ran the Ukrops 10k and then I signed up for the SunTrust Marathon. Deep down I knew that Adrenaline would help me in running these races. I knew it. But I was afraid - I was afraid of the soreness. I was afraid I would get injured and that I would not be able to run the races. Flash forward to last Winter. After recovering from the marathon - and my time sucked, by the way - I decided I was coming back to Adrenaline. It was cold, it was snowing, sleeting, raining. It didn't matter. I did Adrenaline 2 and sometimes 3 times per week. I did this leading up to the Ukrops 10k. With the passing of each week, the workouts got easier. That is not true, the workouts were still tough, but I felt better quicker after each workout. The recovery from each workout was easier. I was getting to be in the best shape of my life. All of the sudden, I had some serious goals. I was going to run that 10k in under 50 minutes. I missed it by 13 seconds, but I still ran the fastest 10k of my life. I continued on with Adrenaline through the hottest Summer in Richmond. Sweat was constantly in your eyes. The heat just zapped the energy from your body, but still I kept coming back twice a week. I was in the best shape of my life. I could not wait for Fall and the cooler days because Paul told us how much faster we would be with less humidity and cooler days. Then my doctors took it away ... Adrenaline was taken away from me. It was depressing, really. All of my teammates - I couldn't be with them for those 2 hours every week. I realized how much I loved Team Adrenaline. After surgery, I could only do some walking for the intial weeks. When I could progress to jogging, I would come back to the Y and use the indoor track. Through the windows, I could see my Adrenaline teammates working out in the parking lot. It just made me push that much harder to get back out there with them. It was my motivation to get back! I was counting down the weeks until my return. I have been back about a month now. I am still trying to get back into the shape I was in pre-surgery and it is not easy. But being back with Paul and the crew has made it much more enjoyable and easier than if I was trying to do it on my own. And the motivation to meet up with them twice a week is always there! I definitely encourage you to give it a shot - if you are on the fence and not sure, just come try it. It could change your life forever!

Being an ex-MLB Player, I know the demands on the body that it takes to compete at the highest level. The strength, speed and endurance needed to be successful. The only thing I can only tell you by seeing what Adrenaline Sports puts our young men and women through at DRHS is that I wish I could have been exposed to this when I was their age. I would have been a lot better mentally and physically to compete. If you were to ask me, Should my son or daughter get involved in the program? My answer is a immediate "yes". It's going to make you a better athlete!

"As a lacrosse coach and fan, the players that always seem to standout are those with explosive first steps and speed. After seeing the results of our players that are currently in Adrenaline and participating in a few sessions myself, I am convinced that this program can create the competitive edge so many of our players are looking for. The other component of the program that stands out is the positive manner in which training is conducted. The players are pushed beyond what they are accustomed to but encouraged by not only the instructor but the other participants as well. This is a great combination and I hope more of our players will decide to participate."

"I think the program is great in the fact that it not only building speed but core strength as well. As a former college coach and part time pro scout I can see that the program makes kids show better as athletes. Most programs pursue the athlete and mold them. This program leads kids in the right direction regardless of their sport."

"It was a workout chock-full of everything good for your body. Strength, agility and cardio all covered in 60 minutes. As a mother of 3 young daughters and business owner I don't have a lot of time each day for a full body workout. Paul, your training sessions cover it all! Your workouts are fun, efficient and target each muscle group. You're living proof that training the way you do will produce a stronger and firmer body in no time"
