My bodybuilding training pains disappeared, and my loads have increased considerably.

I'm loving training with DT and seeing daily that being strong is better and more fun than looking strong.
Paulo Peido Conder
I used to think that training had to be boring, sort of an obligation, you know? In Dog Team, I have fun getting stronger, I think it's better. Nothing to complain about.

I had an excellent boost in loads training with the dog, I believe that in less than a year, we have improved a lot in technique, performance, and mainly in learning.
