I have personally and professionally known Chris LaLanne since 2001, when my fitness career began.

Chris Graduated from San Diego State with my wife Najla and joined forces with me as a Personal Trainer at the Palm Desert Athletic Club in southern California.

Unknowing by either of us, his Great Uncle Jack LaLanne was a significant role model and example of not only the career path and purpose in life but also to push my mind and body to an entirely new extreme.

Because of Jack’s Fortitude towards extremely hard physical feats and challenges, I have always been inspired to “Test” myself against myself. In 2011, at the Pinnacle of our success at CrossFit Scottsdale, powered by Kayyem FITness, I completed a Challenge of strength, gymnastics, and endurance, completing 1000 Pullups and 1000 Pushups in a time of four hours and fifty-six minutes. Jack’s legend completed the same reps in half the time without using the “Kip” method.
