Client Appreciation — Tony “The Tank” 💪
I first met Tony almost 30 years ago at Gold’s Gym, where I worked for 15 years before eventually opening Deezelmuscle.
When I made the move and started Deezelmuscle, Tony was one of the very first people to come with me. We were training partners for those first few years, and somewhere along the way, a training partner became a lifelong friend.
I’ll never forget going out to support “The Tank” when he competed at Junior Nationals in 2013, and Tony returned that same support when I competed at Masters Nationals in Pittsburgh around that same time.
That pretty much sums up who Tony is.
He’s loyal. He’s encouraging. He’s always uplifting the people around him. He’s the kind of guy everybody likes having in the gym, and he can always make you laugh.
When you own a gym long enough, you realize the best part isn’t the equipment or even the accomplishments—it’s the relationships you build along the way.
Tony, I’m proud to call you a friend, proud to have you at Deezelmuscle, and grateful that you’ve been part of this journey from the beginning.
Almost 30 years later and The Tank is still going strong. 💪 Tanks wearing the newest DM swag coming in this week in Black, Red, Green and Blue..
Much love, brother. ❤️
