Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

There are several things. First is boring: my baseline/standard human fear of death. Next is my pet peeve: hearing peers my age, even starting in their late 20s(!) yapping about "we're getting old man, haha" like they've caved in to some sitcom lifestyle. 3rd is remaining confident to defend myself or my loved ones and last...setting the example for my kids, who have dreams of their own.

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

I like blended training...boxing is fun and it's actually intriguing to learn and also develop your own ways to engage in the science. I've also tapped into and developed some of my own speed & agility drills which seem like the primary driver that keeps me feeling younger. Weight training rounds out those first two, and thats my blend!

What would you do with $20,000?

$20,000 would go a long way to giving my children every opportunity possible to follow their athletic & academic dreams. My daughter (14) is dedicated to basketball more than I've ever seen a person dedicate themselves to anything, and with that comes the AAU circuit which involves a large number of costs. My son (10) is also finding his groove as a multi-sport athlete and overall. They both somehow maintain this with perfect grades and so I owe it to them as a Dad to reward that work ethic.
