			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I always  had a hard time gaining weight. I traveled almost every week for about  10 years, and all those big meals on an expense account did nothing. I  usually gained about a pound or two a year. I tried a personal trainer  in the past… and probably gained 4 pounds in a few months. So I pretty  much gave up on the idea of putting on muscle, blaming it on genetics.</p>
<p>My wife  showed me a couple of articles on nutrition and training written by  David, and he seemed to make a lot of sense, so my wife and I started  training in tandem with David twice a week. He came up with a diet and  exercise plan. And more importantly, he explained the reasoning behind  everything, which made it a whole lot easier to stick with the program. I  gained almost 25 pounds of mostly muscle in 4 months, and increased my  strength significantly. The weights I was struggling with in the  beginning looked like a joke after 4 months. I went from leg pressing  180 to 450 pounds!</p>
<p>The  knowledge and understanding that I developed from David is probably more  important to note than the actual weight gain. By the time I reached my  goal, I felt fully educated, and was confident that I could do this all  over again by myself if I had to. There is no secret sauce with David,  he fully shares his knowledge and that alone will be worth training with  him. (He is very motivating and keeps you accountable too, for those of  us who need help in those areas).</p>
