How it All Started

I walked away from my career in the sports supplement industry in May of
2006. It wasn’t a bad split, and I did not want to give up on the industry altogether, I
just wanted to start fresh.

To fully explain this decision, I have to take you back about twenty years.

I have always been obsessed with exercise, health, and nutrition. At 10 years old, I
could already boast a very impressive collection of Muscle & Fitness Magazine, and a
couple of years later I was also collecting issues of Men’s Health. I can remember
reading about bodybuilders like Lee Haney, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lou Ferrigno

and all of the articles concerning their diet and exercise programs. It was these
articles that piqued my interest in the science behind fat loss.

At 16 years old, I had a subscription to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. I

would read any research paper that involved nutrition and fat loss. It would take me
about a day to read each article because I had to stop and check almost every word in
a medical dictionary.

At 17 years of age, I started working at a local supplement store. This was my first
official step into the health and nutrition industry and I have never looked back.
