More About Coach Daniel
I am currently the Javelin Coach at SCSU and owner of Jacked Javelin LLC. Jordan Davis with has improved from 208ft to 277ft in the 4 years I have been training him, breaking the SCSU record, NE-10 conference record, New England Record, D2 record, and 2x National Champion. Nevan Burke has improved from 155ft to 221ft in 4 years, and was the runner up at the conference in 2023 and New England championships in 2024 and was a D2 national qualifier in 2024.
Jacked Javelin LLC is the business I own which specializes in Strength, Mobility, & Nutrition for throwing athletes.
During my 3 years at SCSU I was a 2 time captain and I improved from 169ft to 197ft in 3 seasons and placed second at the NE-10 conference championships & 5th in the New England championships. I power cleaned 328, bench pressed 340, squatted 465, and deadlifted 545. During my time in high school (Berlin CT) I was captain and 3x CCC all conference selection in football, Javelin and Discus.
I am currently training post collegiately and still compete to this day.
As someone who has been injured severely through throwing the Javelin, (torn UCL) I believe in working out the basics in technique and addressing mobility issues before beginning to throw hard. A typical session with me is going to be about 15 minutes of mobility work, then we will move into technique, this could be throwing technique or approach technique, and after the technical changes are taught we will assess the situation and see if they are ready to throw. If so, I will determine what intensity they should throw at based on how good their technique is and what part of the season / off season it is.

Client Reviews
Amy (CoachUp client)
Coach Daniel was a great coach - Very easy to schedule and gave tips for what to do between sessions!
Tyson (CoachUp client)
Great coach and very personable
Todd (CoachUp client)
Daniel is extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and patient. In our first session we saw immediate improvement in my high school junior son who aspires to be more competitive in jav and discus. We can not wait for our future sessions to further develop skills and track progress against our goals. We would highly recommend coach Daniel to any high school thrower looking to improve quickly.
Jordan Davis (Testimonial)
After getting into a serious car accident and breaking my femur and more complication to my knee I had very low confidence with my legs in a whole, coming back into lifting and playing sports. Dan with his specific and specialized programming got me back into my athletic self, being a two-sport athlete in college playing football and track. I put a lot of trust in him and he did nothing but fulfill my wishes and went beyond. He really takes his time and care into each program and really wants to see growth from his athletes / clients. I am now faster, stronger, more mobile and confident than I ever was due to the commitment Dan had put into me, one of the most intelligent, reliable hard-working trainers I know. Can't wait to keep working with him and go beyond my limits!
Nevan Burke (Testimonial)
Within a single year of training with Daniel Labbadia, I have had the opportunity to grow as an all-around athlete. I have packed on roughly 20 pounds of lean mass, while also growing significantly stronger. This growth in athleticism, as well as in the weight room, has led me to become a better thrower. In one year of training with him, my javelin personal best has improved from 47 meters to nearly 56 meters. I look forward to continuing my training with him and to becoming the best athlete I can become under his supervision.
