About the Author

Born in 1952, I was the second oldest among seven children and became interested in physical fitness in the seventh grade while attending St. Joseph School on the north side of Chicago. That was when I picked up my first set of dumbbells, and I had continued to lift weights in some degree ever since. Years later when it was introduced and became popular, I learned some martial arts as another form of exercise. Physical fitness and staying healthy was something I didn’t just do—I enjoyed it. In some ways, I mirrored my father, who seemed to like learning or at least was interested in it enough to become a stationary engineer, then a real estate appraiser, while managing to achieve a level in the US Army as a lieutenant colonel. I, on the other hand, became a drill sergeant in the army reserves. It suited me, and having only a high school diploma under me, I managed to complete a course in one particular trade school and walked off with a certificate in heating, refrigeration, and air-conditioning. However, it wasn’t my vocation; neither were the other trade schools I attempted to make a go at before the last one. Finally, I took the opportunity to accomplish something more in what I was always interested in and enrolled in a fitness and nutrition program. I received high scores and a certificate. This inspired me to what is now my first published book.
