Exercise of the Day: Hella Bars

Dan has over 25 years experience in the fitness industry. In 2009 he made the decision to focus exclusively on bodyweight calisthenics . After years of isolating muscle groups with machines and free weights he realized his body lacked functional ability. By practicing natural bodyweight movements known as calisthenics Dan's functional strength and flexibility increased dramatically. He witnessed what he likes to refer to as "beautiful strength", the meaning of the word calisthenics derived from the Greek translation Kallos -"beauty" + Sthenos - "strength".  Dan devotes equal effort  researching the healthiest way to feed the body. He believes in eating a diet that will prevent disease while at the same time fuel his high intensity training. By following a plant based dietary regimen in addition to his training Dan has reached a high level of health and fitness commonly referred to as SuperWellness. Dan is determined to spread the word about calisthenics and plant based nutrition in hopes of helping millions of people fight disease, obesity, depression and regain control of their life. Quality of life means everything to Dan. Dan himself fought his way out of depression with regular exercise and plant based nutrition and has a deep desire to teach people the way.
