I’m known as the Mad Scientist of Muscle for a reason! My specialty is getting results when conventional training methods for building muscle, gaining strength and burning stubborn fat fail. My training methods are all based on science but very much outside the box. And, if you enjoy unique and effective training methods, they’re a lot of fun! If you’re looking for creative, personalized advice on how blast through muscle or strength plateaus or get past brick walls in your fat loss journey, I have the answers you’re looking for. At 51 years old, I’ve been a trainer more than 33 years and have a degree in exercise science, covering advanced biomechanics, anatomy, physiology and kinesiology. I’ve authored more than 20 books on weight training, including Return To Prime, Muscle Explosion, Time-Volume Training and Metabolic Surge - Rapid Fat Loss. But what’s more important is how I can help YOU. I train in my own basement with limited equipment (and have for 25+ years) so I can help you get the most out of whatever training situation you’ve got, whether it’s a full commercial gym, a home gym with basic equipment, or even no equipment at all! I’ve been through it all from bulking up as a skinny teenager to getting shredded at 50 years old. Bottom line, if you need advice on any aspect of training or fitness, I can help you.
