I have been married to my wife Cathy for five years and have a beautiful one year old daughter, Kylee. I am 39 years old and live in Chandler Arizona. I moved here from New York when I was 6 years old, so I feel like a native.

I have always been an athlete. I started playing ice hockey in NY when I was only 4 years old. I played football in high school and after graduation, played every competitive sport available..... soccer, softball, baseball, flag football, basketball, ice hockey, and bowling. I played all of these at very tough, competitive levels. As a soccer goalie, I felt I was good enough to play in a pro league as I played with and against many of the local pros.

Here's the good/bad of the story... even though I was good and was one of the best on the field at times, I was always the guy who needed to lose 20-30 pounds. I never "tried" to be better. I say now that if I only had P90X or the dedication when I was in my early-mid 20's, I could have been great and may have realized some of my sports dreams.

So here I am now, 39 years old, and working harder and smarter than I ever have. I am at a lower weight than I was in my 20's, have greater definition, more dedication and a better self image than I ever have. It's all because I caught a P90X infomercial in the middle of the night. It was like the video was talking to me directly. I made my purchase the next morning.

My first round of the X was fantastic. Of course, I went through all of the pains associated with the first few weeks. I couldn't believe how hard the workouts were. How sore I was. How much I had to change my eating. But after only a few weeks, it became easier. I was able to start pushing myself during the workouts.... not just getting through them. Eating healthy wasn't "hard" anymore. I learned to make new and healthy choices whether eating out or at home. I liked the new me I was becoming.

I am now in the midst of my 2nd round of the X and bringing it harder than ever before. My goal is no longer weight loss, but to transform myself into a better person. I want to feel good about myself, not just for how I look, but for each and every choice I make, each and every day. I want to help others reach their health and fitness goals.
