I grew up playing all sorts of sports where hockey was my main game. I played through college and knew I wanted to do something in fitness, but at the time, training wasn’t a career. I ended up meeting a Physiology professor at my college my senior year and he took me under his wing and helped me become a trainer. After that I packed up my yellow mustang convertible (yes, yellow) and took a job as a trainer in Chicago at a corporate gym.
Banana Probiotic. Once you peel away my layers you know that I’m a sweet and mushy guy who will take care of your body in a multitude of ways.
Take care of your mind first. I love working out and eating well but if you don’t take care of what’s between the ears you will never succeed in life. I really try to focus on my mind and my WHY in life! I workout to feel good. not only mentally but physically as well. Working out has become my antidepressant and motivation to stay healthy for my family. I love being the dad who can chase around a toddler for hours!
