“The program at Ignition is awesome! I broke my all-time personal best on the bench press and dead lift, while improving my speed and quickness tremendously. Ignition has made me a better all-around NFL player and I can feel it. I was able to not only train physically, but also spiritually through prayer before workouts and this helped me keep all things in perspective.”
