Every single one of our transformation stories is inspirational—and we like to think ours are too!  As the founders of Hitch Fit, Diana and I have undergone transformations of our own (believe it or not, we weren’t always this chiseled and ripped!).  It takes a lot of work to look like a body builder, a fitness model or a bikini model.  And like many of you know, it takes a lot to go through a Hitch Fit transformation.

I could not be more honored to be featured in this magazine and I hope that my story inspires many of you to transform your life and get Hitch Fit!!

With all of his newfound knowledge, things soon clicked and in 2005 he earned his first magazine cover appearance.
