Born in Brazil, Daniel Maciel is a pro volleyball player, trainer, and Vball performance expert. At 37, he won the Italian championship and reached his highest attack touch ever, 3.65m, higher than in his youth.
Shoulder atrophy, spinal disc injuries, knee and shoulder surgeries, obstacles that end most careers. He came back. Stronger. Victorious.
That journey became Armored Player, a system applied in 37 countries, helping athletes jump higher, hit harder, and play longer.
With 23+ years on the court, experience in 20+ countries, and 150,000 followers worldwide, Daniel is living proof that peak performance has no age and success is trainable.

Yes. You’ll need access to a gym or basic weight room. This isn’t bodyweight fitness, it’s a serious program to build real physical capacity.
Absolutely. The sessions are designed to complement your volleyball routine, not interfere with it. Many athletes do this during their season or off-season without issues.
Most athletes feel better within 2-3 weeks: less pain, more stability, smoother movement. Real transformation takes consistency, but results come fast when you follow the plan.
