Army Retiree here! When I think of D1 I think of Coach Mike Espy! He works well with youth and adults alike. His detailed systematic strength training program was the reason I become part of the D1 team. Unfortunately, he is no longer there which almost prompt my resignation from the program but my son suffers from a disability hence the reason I stayed. The post-atmosphere has alter drastically; but as long as my son is preforming and he’s getting a workout that’s all that matters to me! But I do wish Coach Espy could return. His energy and down to earth spirit really made a difference there. Those children ran into D1 building, now it seems as those there numb and I get it. #imaMomtoo

D1 Jackson has been great for my son training for football. Coach Shay is very informative explaining routes and different techniques at catching the ball. We highly recommend D1 Jackson.C.Anderson

I absolutely recommend D1. I’m not one for regular gyms due to low self motivation to do it on my own. D1 has great instructors that keep the atmosphere active. The workouts are great and I started to notice a difference in how a felt/looked in just a week. The members are also really friendly, it feels like a workout family! I love my D1 Jackson!

Great training class for grade school age. Age appropriate workouts that are fun too!

My son loves working out here and is motivated to go as often as I’ll let him. Coach Hodge is great with him and he’s learned a lot.

This is a really good place to go for whatever it is you need for athletics or just working out. I enjoy working out with JB he pushes me to do my best and is a really good coach. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get better at a sport or anything.

The training is phanomanal and the atmosphere is always pleasant. I will give it a 5 star rating if someone asked me about my experience.

Getting up everyday and going to train with Mike Espy is like no other feeling he makes sure that I’m motivated and pumped up and that I give 110% each rep. He has gotten me in top tier shape and has improved my footwork and speed tremendously over the 2 years that I have been going there. Before I started to train with Mike I ran a 4.7 40 yard dash now I run a 4.5 and I am still improving each session. Thanks to the right techniques and the little things he has highly improved my conditioning and speed. The D1 organization and training staff is the best there is and is the right place for any person of any age to get the results that they are looking for!!

Training at D1 Jackson is like no other experience especially with MIke Espy. Mike keeps me motivated and hungry for more every time I go up there. Before training At D1 I didn’t have the best footwork or the best speed but over the 2 years I have been training with mike he has got me in peak performance and ready for anything that comes my way. Before I worked with Mike Espy I ran a 4.7 In the 40 but over the years Mike has showed me the little things to work on and the best form to use when running it and Now I run a 4.5. Overall If you are dedicated D1 is the place you wanna be to take your skills to the next level.

I joined Jen’s Fierce Living program Aug 3rd and decided to dedicate my commitment and time for 8 weeks. This program is great for women to build and be consistent in their workout routine. All of the trainers are professional and pushes you to be a better version of yourself. I love D1 and would recommend this facility to anyone looking to be consistent in their fitness journey.

Both of my children go to D1 - my daughter is in the rookie class and my son is in the prep class. They love it and it is a great fit for our family. My daughter is getting a solid hour of age-appropriate cardio in a no-pressure, engaging setting. My son is working on endurance and speed to enable him to compete in basketball and soccer. Both kids love the loud music and the workout!

Good environment good coaching and I learn something every time I go

I BRING MY 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER HERE FOR VOLLEYBALL TRAINING. SHE IS TRAINING WITH COACH LAUREN, WHO IS AMAZING WITH HER. I AM PROUD OF HER PROGRESS SHE HAS MADE SINCE STARTING IN AUG. COACH LAUREN CAME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. HER PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING WITH MY DAUGHTER IS WONDERFUL. GREAT EXPERIENCE SO FAR.

I joined D1 in October 2020. Since, the staff have always been welcoming. I love the atmosphere and hard work we put in during bootcamp. You put in the work, you get the results

Training with mike epsy is best thing you can do if you’re trying to speed train. The speed training makes you one of the most explosive players you can be. If you want to get to your full potential you should definitely train with Mike Epsy

By far the most challenging bootcamp I’ve done. The trainers are knowledgeable and push you to the limits. I’m 6 weeks in notice incredible changes in my body and endurance.

Our family joined so that we can get back in shape since the pandemic. We love the family atmosphere and professional staff. We are excited to have a place that we can all enjoy and get fit.

Incredible atmosphere. Shay Hodge has pushed me to a limit that I didn’t know my body could get to. He’s an awesome trainer with a great personality and a lot of experience in the gym. He knows exactly what workouts are best for my golf game and is putting serious mass on my lower body. D1 is the pinnacle for all types of athletes! 💪

Our 7 year old son loves his workouts at D1. I would strongly recommend this program to anyone. The staff is very patient and friendly. Great place!

My daughter is 8 years old. We went to D1 for a volleyball interest meeting. We met Coach Lauren and we were very impressed ! After playing Rec-Softball she only wants to play volleyball for Coach Lauren! When they say “College Coached” it’s not a sales pitch ! It’s TRUTH!

Great workout - intense and different every day! The trainers are top notch! It’s a pleasure being a member!

Great facility! Awesome staff! They are genuinely interested and invested in helping me achieve my personal fitness goals.

Lauren and the Train Heroic app have been a lifesaver for my volleyball team! They are able to get quality designed workouts, encouragement from a coach, and the accountability of checking in. The app leads them through each step of the workout, so I know exactly what my team is accomplishing. Through the message feature, the team gets real-time encouragement from a trainer they trust. Thanks D1!

D1 Jackson is the epitome of a quality place to workout !! The unique workouts that we do here are so effective and I look forward to working out with Coach Mike, Coach Jennifer, and Coach Callie! It’s the atmosphere for me 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️

I am an aspiring personal fitness trainer and physical therapist so I look up to my coaches/trainers! They are beyond the average trainer. They build bonds with their members and want everyone to reach their fitness goals! I would recommend D1 to anyone! There is no other training like D1 training!

My 11 year old loves D1. D1’s staff is very helpful and knowledgeable in the field. The coaches really push the children to do their best. Anybody looking for a great facility to stay in shape, D1 is the place to be.

I love D1. Great atmosphere. Coaches are helpful & knowledgeable! The energy in this establishment is AMAZING!! 🤙🏼

D1 is a great place to workout! The people are encouraging and motivating. The trainers push you to be your best. Mike has helped me reach my fitness goals and keeps setting the bar higher. Love the D1 family!

D1 is the place to be. My first thought of the workouts was...this is to much for me. Im 57 and over 220 lbs female. Weight has always been an issue for me. I also battle with Diabetes Mellitus. So quite naturally, I felt out of place. D1 is my battle field! We go hard and most days I have to push harder to complete the workout. I love that I have to come without excuses. Everybody is working hard in the classes. If you need an extra push, D1 is where its at!

My little ones are in day two of their workouts at D1 and it has been AWSOME!!!! My family and I are so excited to join the D1 family!!! Dope place!!!

I have been at D1 for a while now and I love love love it. It is challenging! Every day is different, it keeps me motivated and looking forward to working out. Mike Espy and his staff are creative, knowledgeable and quite outstanding. There’s no place I’d rather be

Working out with mike espy is one of the best things I could have done, not only does he work with my strength but speed. ( which i needed)

D1 has recently become my favorite workout around. Being a former athlete, this place helps me stay competitive and fit. The energy from the coaches along with everyone training is out of this world.I’ve met some really great people that continue to encourage me each day at D1. Come workout with me!!!!

I love D1! It is THE place to go if you want to get in shape! The staff is awesome and the workouts are fun! This is seriously the first time I have ever actually looked forward to going to the gym. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, they offer classes for all ages and schedules, you won’t regret signing up!

I’ve been at D1 since May 2020!I love the atmosphere and the people !I haven’t worked out in years, consistently at least but this place has pushed me to keep going. The trainers are so nice & they make sure you are staying on track. HIIT workouts are new to me, but here, even when Im not as up to speed as everyone else, I don’t get that vibe of, “oh she’s not serious!” They literally come and encourage you instead. I don’t think I could have picked a better place to join. I started with a friend who had been coming here and I’ve been coming since, don’t plan on leaving !!

There’s a sense of community at D1. Everyone wants to see you succeed at achieving your goals. And be sure, you will be pushed to do the work! So glad I joined.

D1 is really the dream spot for any athlete. They are professional, train with passion and energy. I have found a new home away from home and I look forward to every workout at D1. D1 puts an emphasis on hard work and dedication. They helped me push through limits that I mentally placed and it is so rewarding to push through those limits and meet my fitness goals. I highly recommend D1!

D1 is a place I didn’t know I needed! Chris is an awesome coach! The atmosphere and people are great! Teamwork makes the dream work! I can feel and see my body transforming!

D1 is a awesome place to work out, the coaches are great and very knowledgeable and know how to work out different muscle groups each week and push you to give it all you got. It’s fun working out and big groups of people everybody pushes each other and encourages each other. I’ve been working out in a gym by myself or with a partner for 20 years, I wanted to try something new and I really enjoy this type of training and workouts.

I have enjoyed my journey this far with D1... I’m seeing results with little changes here and there. Great staff at D1. Also they have done a great job making us feel safe to workout and train during the pandemic.

D1 Madison is an awesome experience for all ages. Mike, Jennifer, and Shay are the best trainers ever!

Mike, Tripp, Lauren, Jordan, and the rest of the trainers have done a great job getting me back in shape. I like to lift weights and run and they have helped me run my first half marathon this year from the boot camps. I’ve also been able to do Tripp’s strength class and have gained muscle through the process. If you are looking for a gym community that will push you this is the place!

I really enjoy my workouts with each coach at D1. They all have a different approach to their workout routine. Which keep my workout exciting.. Fresh never boring....Very Intense....Trust me you will feel the Weakness leaving the Body .. Replaced with Strength and Energy.Amazing Body Change!!!Thank You to All My D1 CoachesTrippJordanMike E

Great atmosphere!! This is one of the best boot camps I have been too period! They will work you OUT and have you doing different things (that you didnt even know you could do) daily! Keep up the good work!

I recently joined D1 and have really enjoyed my experience. There are several different types of boot camps and strength trainings you can do at various times during the day. If you hate ready to take your fitness journey to the next level, this is the way to go.Also I traveled out of state not long ago, and was able to locate a D1 where I was through the mobile app. This allowed me to take my workouts on the road.The overall experience has been great. Come give it a try.

I really enjoy training here for St joe volleyball with coach Lauren. There is so much equipment to work with and i can tell I’ve gotten stronger and better every time i come.

D1 and Battle Buddies has been a great experience. D1 pushes me to work my hardest even past what I think is all I have to give. The coaches are great to work with and very encouraging! I not only lost weight and inches but am noticeably stronger!

Great atmosphere with very nice equipment and amenities. The lady’s locker room is always clean the showers are also really clean for a public facility. Although I do wish the water was a little bit hotter. The staff is very friendly/encouraging especially for a beginner that hasn’t been active in year. D1 is really the definition of a “gym family”.

D1 is an awesome place to get yourself back in shape with the help of the best trainers around! I recommend D1 to anyone wanting to get back in shape or lose a few pounds. This is the place to do it.

I love D1! It’s a very family oriented environment with superior coaches! Thank you D1 for pushing me to crush my daily goals!

My 9 year old son has really enjoyed his time at D1. The coaches are great. And we have seen a huge difference in his weight, speed and agility. I would recommend D1 for all ages.

D1 is a great place for athletes. The workouts are great and I always look forward to going to my Rookie Class.

I am in my ninth month of D1 training in Madison, Ms. It is by far the best program I have every been a part of. Mike Espy and his staff are very good at what they do and results are inevitable. You tell them your goals and they will get you there if you are willing to put in the work.

Great training facility. Wish they had more pull up bars! From what I seen and experience the coaches are great. Lauren is an awesome coach and person. Obvious she and each coach loves their career.

Having never stepped foot into a gym, I was feeling extremely anxious when I started boot camp at D1 training. Repeat, extremely anxious. It has been an experience like no other. The trainers are awesome and will work you hard but also will make any modifications you may need as a newbie They are always encouraging, helpful and friendly. Im still a newbie but I have certainly found myself getting stronger and my gym anxiety is about gone! The staff and the atmosphere of the D1 training center make the boot camp workouts fun and challenging. Thank you D1 for helping me get over my gym anxiety. I love getting stronger and knowing Im doing something great for my health. D1 youre the best! :)

Okay so I’ve been at D1 for almost 2 years, and I LOVE IT. My coach may love burpees, but I feel like I have conquered the world since I have started working out here. Mike Espy knows what he is doing, and he makes sure you do too. I look forward to my daily bootcamps with Mike cause it helps me release and move forward with my days. I either go to 9:00 am or 5:00 pm and I love the flexibility he offers at D1. I look forward to many more years with this gym and with my coach, Mike!

Awesome atmosphere & helpful staff! Love working out here!!

Coach Lauren is great!!! Always helpful and hands on!!

Hello good so far hopefully I’ll get some good stuff done here today and I will let y’all know

All employees/coaches/trainers at D1 Madison motivate and encourage athletes while pushing them to achieve goals. I have seen my daughter improve 100% in many areas- strength, skills, agility.Coach Lauren Markle is a phenomenal volleyball trainer. HIGHLY recommend her if your athlete needs to improve on basic skills or focus in on improving a skill. Coach Lauren will connect with your athlete and push her to a new level and provide necessary feedback to the parent(s).

D1 is a big family- from the coaches to all other members, we all are one family! What I love most about d1 is that everyday is different- no work out is ever the same, the music has diversity, you don’t have to plan a workout or try to remember what you need to work on; you just show up to your class ready to go, and your coaches handle the rest for you! Honestly, my one (or two) hour workout at d1 is the best part of my days because it is my “therapy”. The coaches work with you and accommodate all your needs, and they individually form a relationship with every member and get to know what works best for you. No member gets left behind! We all encourage and push each other to become stronger and better everyday, including the coaches. I will never have a bad thing to say about d1 or the coaches. Highly recommended!

Great atmosphere!! My daughter is currently doing a strength class with Lauren Markle. She has definitely come a long way since starting. Lauren does a great job of encouraging the girls as they work hard!! Wonderful place for grownups and kids.

My daughter has participated in several D1 volleyball speed and agility training sessions, as well as a couple of skills clinics. Lauren Markle does an amazing job with the volleyball program! I highly recommend it.

My daughter is taking volleyball privates and strength/conditioning classes with Lauren Markle. We can tell a vast difference in her hitting as well as overall strength. I highly recommend D1 for any sports/fitness training needs.

I love the variety of exercises each coach brings to the workout. I don’t think I’ve ever done the same workout twice! D1 is an excellent workout program! Coach Triplett, Jordan, and Epps are amazing!

I’ve personally enjoyed every session at D1. The coaches are encouraging, engaging, and you definitely will have an amazing workout!

Love the workouts. They are tough but definitely worth it. The coaching staff is great!

Overall, this staff is extremely knowledgeable and well-rounded in their experience with sports and fitness. Mike and Edgar’s classes are super high-intensity and Tripp is a fantastic strength coach! Don’t be intimidated ladies, this gym is so inviting and awesome!

D1 is like a family. Everybody knows another and pushes them to be their best selves. It’s welcoming to everybody whether you’re an athlete in training or a mom trying to get in shape. All are welcomed!

Great workout for adults. You can go at your own pace without getting yelled at.

Great atmosphere and training. We do baseball training and really see a difference. Would highly recommend.

Coaches are knowledgeable and motivating. Their focus on correct form and proper training prevent injuries. Great energy with all bootcamps and training!

I’m a teacher and working out at D1 before heading off to my kiddos is so worth it! I have tons of energy when I leave and the workouts are really toning up my body. I love it!

My daughter has been taking a strengthening and conditioning class for the past two months. Even in this short time, we see a marked improvement in her performance on the court. This translates to confidence in her abilities and brings out the best in her.

D1 is a great experience for my son. They are preparing him for football. I am so glad he is a part of the D1 family. He has and continues to enjoy the workouts.

D1 has been great! Most days I attend the 5pm Adults Bootcamp class and let me just tell you it is worth every penny I spend! love the atmosphere and the encouragement from the coaches. They are willing to work with you, but will also push you when they see more potential than you see yourself. It is a judgement free, hardcore workout.

I love D1 I really do miss it but I’ll try the one in Texas hope it’s as good as you guys🙌🏽

Love being able to practice and work on getting better at volleyball!!!

I have never felt so encouraged and part of a gym family as I do with D1. The trainers really make it fun and I can feel the positive difference it is making on me. They have shown me and my two boys how to transform and push through when your body tells you no. I love having a fun, healthy, and and supportive gym family☺Thanks,Angelique

I practice volleyball here at D1 and it’s amazing !! The people are amazing and the music is fire !!!

D1 has become like a second family to me. I was really apprehensive at first because the workouts seemed so foreign to me and I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to do it. Looking back that fear seems so silly! The trainers and coaches break everything down to a do-able format for every fitness level. I look forward to my 6:00 pm class everyday! I’ve been going for roughly a month now and it’s addicting. What are you waiting for?? We can’t wait to have you join us on the turf!

I’ve always been active in the gym, but I plateaued. Joining D1 Jackson has pushed me to the limit and the results speak for themselves. Top notch coaches, top notch workouts!

I brought my son to train at D1 and I was amazed the level of expertise the coaching staff has. To my knowledge all the coaches played sports at a high level and the guy leading the bunch is one of my favorite Ole miss players and Washington Redskin. Ive been to fast camp in boca raton, Florida and D1 Jackson is right on par with it. My son trained for a combine there and his 40 time dropped two tenths of a second. Thank you D1. We will be back.Overwhelmingly Satisfied Dad....

Tire hammer was fun.

Great and friendly staff, they know where you’re at and are willingly to adjust and work with you!

D1 and Lauren Markle have been awesome. My daughter loves her work outs, and improves week to week.

Great place for young athletes! Positive and encouraging environment!

I was sitting here thinking about your combine and decided to write you a review. This event was held on Sunday January 25,2015. This was the worst combine/ training I have ever experience. It was unorganized, two many kids not enough coaches/ trainer or whatever. My son and I have been to a lot of real camps and real combine to know that was a bunch of crap. He didnt learn nothing we didnt already know. We paid 25$ and some people didnt even pay. I just thought you should know, so the next time you guys do something like that have a little pride in what you do.! You never know whose there..Very Disappointed parent,J.Scott

Best atmosphere to workout and love the coaches!

It’s worth your money. The trainers are the best!!!

Love working out here! The trainers are great and really want you to succeed! So worth it!

When Cade trained at the 12 year level it was great and definitely worth the financial and time and investment.

Great atmosphere, Wonderful staff and great work outs daily!

This is an awesome place to workout! Worth every penny.

Great atmosphere, Wonderful staff and great work outs daily!

Great class workouts. Treat the kids really well

Love the trainers and the workouts! It’s hard to wake up and make those 5 AM workouts, but I’m always glad I did!

My daughter trains for volleyball here. She likes it

I love going there and you never feel out of place!

Great training w Lauren
