Email to David Gilks
from Grant Vickers
To Whom It May Concern,
I have nothing but positive things to say about Dave Gilks and all of the Core Essentials staff. I have had great improvements with my posture, my game, my general health and most importantly for an athlete being injury-free.
I started training last year at Core Essentials with Dave to try and improve for my sport of baseball. I came off my first year at the College of Southern Idaho being a non-starter. After a summer with Dave I went back to the school being the starting catcher and earned the First Team All-Conference catcher at the end of the year.
After my first summer with Dave, he taught my brother and I many things about training; the physical side, and more importantly the mental side. Because we were only able to train for a short period of time, he taught us skills to take with us to use at our schools during the fall and spring semesters. I have now received another scholarship to play NCAA baseball at Mesa State College. I believe my goal to play this level of college baseball would have been out of reach without my training at Core Essentials with Dave. We have learned to train to become athletes, instead of being one sport-specific.
My game has improved in the aspects of power, speed, arm strength, and most important to all baseball players being able to stay consistent.
Thanks.
Grant Vickers
