After watching the downward trends of our nation's health
and fitness habits for the past ten years, Michael was determined
to do something about it in a big way! After collaborating
with several of his health professional board of advisors,
Michael set out to put his years of experience and education
together in a daily workbook that address the problems and
provides the solutions to our nation's current health status.
Knowing that the household and the family unit would be
the best place to start, Michael wrote Lean Mom, Fit Family
a 6 week step-by-step action plan. Together with Kirsten
Straughan, (RD) Dr. Tom Sattler, (Ed. D) and Dr. John Hefferon,
Orthopedic Specialist, Michael and company put together
a results oriented soft-cover book that first helps mom
become healthier and more fit and then shows her how to
do the same for her entire family!
