The more I listen, the more I admire! Thanks Gino

Coach Arcaro, I just wanted the thank you again for the SWAT No Huddle Offense book. We have incorporated so many elements of your SWAT philosophy into what we do on a daily basis. In fact, I have quoted you verbatim in our “Plan to Win”. The kids love the “Five Smooth Stones” analogy—it is apropos and relevant for our program as we are a fast, undersized Catholic school. We take great pride in the fact that we are DAVID taking on GOLIATH every game. Next season we will not huddle whatsoever—I am excited to battle-test our offense.

Love Gino and indeed felt a kindred chemistry with him. All of you are cool folks, but he is clearly an exceptional, one-of-a-kind soul. I’d love to work with him as a coach one day. His is one impressive, inspiring, heroic man.

Sorry Gino that it took so long to get back to you. I feel very flattered that a guy like you read and appreciated my book. I appreciate you and your motivation. I wish you all the best, JK

Gino….always an inspiration. I am reading your awesome book Soul of a Lifter. So far I can’t put it down. I remember you, always passionate and of course you still are on weightlifting, football, policing and life in general. Great job buddy. I wish you continued success and God Bless.

4th and Hell is Sun Tzu’s Art of War written by James Joyce and played out on a college football field. Oh, and did they get the 2 points and tie the match? You’ll just have to read the book and see.

Being interviewed on Gino’s podcast gave me the confidence to sell my football system—it was my “breakthrough.”

Had my first book sitting on the back burner for 10 years-just couldn’t finish it. Then I was interviewed by Gino Arcaro for his Blunt Talk podcast. He inspired me to finish the book. Have since gone on to write several more. Thanks Gino!

Reading Soul of a Lifter for the second time. Your writing and experience is a true inspiration. Amazing work. Thank you for sharing Mr. Arcaro. 

Reading Soul of a Lifter. “My life is better because of it.”

Love the energy in your videos Gino

I see you are still living and promoting all things good. I know you probably reach a wide audience. Those who tune in are better for it. Thanks for your dedication to football; many great habits stuck with me through the years. Thanks for that!!

I’m proof that if you really want it, you will make the time and everyone deserves a lil’ ME time. Thanks to the awesome staff at X Fitness, Welland for inspiring me and introducing me to the world of weights! Thanks again Gino Arcaro and Leeann Arcaro-King!

Hope all is well up North. Let it be known that your books were one of many influences that inspired me to keep going with a positive spirit!

Hey Gino it was nice to finally meet you last night. Your really are inspirational in your no bullshit approach to life in a time when people sugar coat stuff so as to not hurt feelings. You tell it like it is – the world needs more of that.

Hey Coach, I just wanted to thank you for every6thing you did for my life. The Niagara Colts program instilled the values that made me successful today. You made a huge difference in my life and allowed me to realize that anything is possible. I am currently teaching junior high in Alberta and coaching minor football here. I will be competing in my first Ironman this summer! Thanks for everything Coach.

You made a lasting impact on me. I’m playing LB for the Sarnia Imperials. I think everything I experienced with you as a coach has given me unrealistic expectations of other coaches. LOL. I miss your type of fierce presence on the field. You demanded the best and somehow found it in those willing to shut up, listen and learn.

Hey coach! I wanted to let you know, I’ve won my first Championship as a coach, last Saturday. The Offensive scheme I’ve been using is based on your SWAT Offense! Thank you!! I see a lot of good coming.

My first day at the gym… motivated by Soul of a Lifter… read all of it. Great book—gave it to a friend who is reading excerpts to his wife!
