Have you ever gained a few pounds from falling out of routine with your diet or workouts? Been out of the gym due to an injury? Well what about intentionally gaining 75 pounds?! This week, we speak with Drew Manning, a.k.a. the Fit2Fat2Fit guy you may have seen on your TV or YouTube feed for the last few years. Drew walks us through why he set this goal, why he wanted to gain such an excessive amount of weight as a personal trainer and what it taught him (more than just how hard it became to walk up a few flights of stairs). He shares with us his WHY, his belief system that was shaken to the core and how he came out on the other side not only a better trainer but a more empathetic human being. Make sure to catch his incredible new season of 'Fit to Fat to Fit" on A&E!
