A healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition has always been a priority
for me. Growing up on the South side of Chicago I came to the
realization that you needed to know how to take care of yourself.  

The way I found to protect myself was to be as physically fit as
possible.  As a child I saw the comic strip book that said “Tired of
getting sand kicked in your face” and I ordered it.  I knew I wanted
to look like the guy in the book.

Then I realized that being in shape helped me with the other aspects
in my life, in particular with the sports I played in school.  I was
always involved in organized sports such as football, baseball,
basketball, boxing and wrestling.  

I asked my parents for a bench and weights when I was about thirteen
years old.  I was told that before I could get my weights I needed to
study and educate myself on the sport of lifting weights so I wouldn't
hurt myself.  Before I knew it my backyard had transformed itself into
the “Venice Beach” of my neighborhood.

As I grew older I realized there is no pill that can be taken to keep
young. I look at health and nutrition as the fountain of youth.

Many illnesses can be prevented and eliminated simply by exercising
and maintaining a proper diet.  Being healthy is a lifestyle.

I have over twenty years of experience in training.  I kept a full time
regular job and trained clients part time until the demand was so great
that I finally gave up the conventional job and began personal training
full time.    

I develop a program for each individual based on their personal goals.  
The whole person needs to be taken into consideration. Even though
the outside of the person is the end result, I like to begin the
transformation from the inside out, beginning with nutrition and
cardio/respiratory.
