As an author, I spend a lot of time sitting at the keyboard, as do many in my and similar professions. Prior to becoming a novelist, I was a long-haul trucker, another sedentary lifestyle. Over the course of many years, the body I once had as an active-duty Marine turned into a blob.
So, I decided to do something about it. The change from Marine to blob took decades, so I didn't even notice it happening. But when I put the aging process in reverse, the changes were very noticeable and fast-coming.
This was thanks mostly to Sam Hoster, my co-author and owner of Stay Strong Fitness. I know very little about health and fitness, except that I'm living proof that even in our mid-sixties, it's not too late to become fit and strong. So, I invited Sam to write this book with me. Through the guidance and tutelage of his trainers and coaches, I went from blob to competitive powerlifter in just over a year.
This book isn't a memoir, but a motivational. Anyone can become stronger and healthier. All you need is guidance and a little push. That's what we're here for. Sam provides the guidance and I do the pushing. Kinda like in the gym.
