Dante’s Road to Greatness: Building Strength with Empower Sports Network

At Empower Sports Network, we believe every athlete deserves the chance to push limits, break barriers, and discover their true potential. Our Powerlifting Program is one of the best examples of that mission in action—providing adaptive athletes with the tools, coaching, and community to thrive.

This week, we spotlight Dante, a dedicated athlete whose training reflects not just physical strength, but determination and heart.

Training with Purpose

In this video, Dante takes on a session focused on three essentials:

• Power & Strength – Building explosive force and consistency with every rep.

• Technique – Sharpening squat depth, deadlift form, and body positioning to compete safely and effectively.

• Upper Body Development – Adding balance and stability for full-body performance.

Each lift is more than just movement—it’s proof of Dante’s resilience and a reminder of what athletes can achieve when given the right environment and support.
