About
Don't say it.Live it.
Take No Days Off is painted on the wall for a reason. It's how we coach and how we show up.
Our story
Why TNDO.
Giavanni Ruffin founded TNDO GYM and coaches on the floor.
Before TNDO, Giavanni went through a Seattle Seahawks tryout (Apr 18, 2016) and rookie minicamp (May 6 to 8, 2016). Now he coaches Virginia Beach athletes and adults on the same standard: show up, do the work, take no days off.
That is the job here. Every session at TNDO is coached, from athletes 10 and up to adults coming back to training.
The record so far:
- Trained over 40 professionals
- 600 college athletes
- Thousands of young athletes
What we stand for
The standard.
Coached
Every athlete, every adult, every rep.
Consistent
Easy days and hard days both count. Show up for both.
Community
On the gym floor, at every class and every event.
Coaching team & method
Coached by people who've done it.
Every session at TNDO has a coach on the floor, and every program follows the same research-backed training blocks.
The team
- Giavanni Ruffin, Founder. Coaches on the floor. Seattle Seahawks tryout and rookie minicamp, 2016.
- TNDO coaching staff. A coach runs every class, every athlete session and every consult.
- EBI Strong. Our partner on the Baseball & Softball Performance Lab.
The method
- Dynamic warm-up every session: movement, balance and landing work, then build-up sprints or jumps
- Mobility so you move freely and keep training
- Strength that progresses week to week, form before load
- Speed: acceleration and sprint mechanics
- Agility: cuts, change of direction and reactions
Our training blocks are built from published sports-science research on warm-ups, strength, speed and agility.
