Derrick is the best of the best in the Houston area!!! I worked with him in high school and throughout college and would not have had athletic success without him! Not only does he care about creating unstoppable athletes, he cares about shaping the people who walk through his gym doors! Derrick went from a coach to a family friend and we are forever thankful for the role he played in my families life!

My son has been training with coach DJ for a little over a year now. Best decision we ever made! His workouts are better than any other training we have been to before. He does an awesome job of mixing up the strength vs speed/agility and really pushes him. From one season to the next, the results in his speed/endurance/ and mental game has gone to the next level!

There are times when my son doesn’t want to go to baseball/football practice, but he has NEVER dreaded going to see DJ! Even after a sports injury he was begging to get back in the gym with DJ.

Coach also helps me, the Dad, when I have random questions around youth sports and building athletes from a young age. He does a great job of putting it all into perspective.

I also appreciate how he will modify certain workouts that are more focused on the sport that’s in season at the time.

We have referred several friends and family and all say the same thing!

I know my son appreciates DJ and learning not only the physical side of athletics but the mental side too.

Hands down the best around! Thank you Coach!

We are so grateful to have been referred to the DJonkins Sports Training Program! Derrick’s warm welcoming outgoing personality instantly built rapport and trust with our son and daughter. He is genuinely invested in their development, taking time to ask and answer questions, creating challenging varied workouts customized to the needs of their individual sports, basketball and golf. Derrick’s focus and attention to detail continues to elevate efficiency in their sport, increase their fitness level, building their strength, power, endurance, speed, agility, and a solid technical movement foundation. Derrick is a great role model, inspiring and motivating our kids to reach their athletic goals! He goes above and beyond. As an added bonus, we enjoy listening to his podcasts on The Sports Resort. The episodes and interviews with elite athletes offer motivational and insightful information on current and relevant topics. We highly recommend Derrick at DJonkins Sports! Thank you for all you do!

DJ trained both my kids- and he worked them hard! He had specialized training and exercises specific to each of their sports. Whether it was an individual or group session- our kids received the best supervised training. If you have kids that need a great workout - I would highly recommend him- especially if you have kids looking to play sports at a higher level/and or in college!

Derrick is meticulous in his training and takes an active interest in seeing his athletes succeed on all playing fields - athletics, academics, etc. He builds lasting relationships, stays engaged and tailors his training to compliment what is being done outside of the gym and weight room. He drives results and is worth the investment!

Coach Jonkins is by far the most motivating & organized coach that we have ever met - he is passionate about his athletes succeeding at their sport, personal life and academics . He tailors his workouts to each sport and exemplifies to his trainees what hard work, integrity and discipline mean to achieve success . We feel so fortunate to be working with him - he is one of a kind !

We’ve trained with Derrick over the past 4 years. He’s a trainer that thinks outside the box, you never do the same workout twice. We ride horses professionally at a high level and Derrick understands the mechanics behind our sport and what we need out of a workout to be the best we can in the saddle. He works with your injuries and makes you stronger. It’s amazing to have a trainer that is focused on sports specifically and what you need for your specific sport - for us it’s core, total body balance and strength. Derrick has come to our competitions and farm and watched how we ride and what we do, we couldn’t be happier.
