Fred is co-author of Amazon Best Seller, Choosing the StrongPath: Reversing the Downward Spiral of Aging. He is a former U.S. Army Ranger. Head of Bartlit Beck, Fred is a distinguished trial lawyer who Chambers USA Legal Rankings (2017) called “arguably the best trial lawyer in the United States.” He has represented President George Bush and President Barack Obama. He graduated first in his class in law school and holds the top academic record in the 120-year history of his law school. At the age of 50, Fred adopted his new lifestyle built around challenging exercise and excellent nutrition. At 88 years old, he is an outstanding example of what can be achieved.

To this day, Fred regularly improves his lifetime strength training bests. Fred is living proof that vigorous exercise and excellent nutrition can radically improve an individual’s quality of life far beyond the mental and physical deterioration of common aging. He is leading this effort to inspire others to get on and stay on the StrongPath so that they too may become the very best version of themselves and live a long, strong, healthy life.

Steven is Fred’s co-author of Choosing the StrongPath and also author of The Power of Attention, a book about attention mechanics as it relates to habit formation and psychological transformation. 14 years ago, he adopted Fred’s StrongPath regimen after a battle with cancer and cardiac bypass surgery.

Today, at age 69, Steven credits the StrongPath for his return to vigorous health. He is now cancer-free and remarkably heart-healthy. He is stronger now than ever before in his life, and like Fred, continually improves his personal lifetime strength training bests. Steven is proof that it is possible to overcome severe medical setbacks and regain excellent quality of life by adopting the StrongPath.

Two years ago, Jeff was approaching 50. Like most, he exercised infrequently, ate whatever he felt like and as a result, lacked energy and drive. He had hypertension, blood pressure 150-160/ 110-115, and took medication to control it. He knew Fred and Steven and when Choosing the StrongPath was published in January of 2018, he read it and determined to undertake the lifestyle change. Six months later, he and his daughters completed a Spartan race. His blood pressure dropped back to normal and he no longer needed to take medication. It currently is 102/69. He dropped 25 lbs. and now has no trouble tackling, races, Crossfit HIIT challenges, as well as doing deadlifts and other serious strength training.

Jeff brings a wealth of business knowledge and experience to StrongPath. Having founded and run several startups, he immediately recognized the benefits StrongPath could bring to the millions who are struggling with chronic diseases or who just want to feel fitter and healthier. Jeff is the founding Managing Director of the University of Miami ‘Cane Angel Network, an investment platform that supports the university’s entrepreneurial community. He’s also the Managing Partner of JC Venture Capital, an investment firm specialized in early-stage technology startups. And since 2008, he has been teaching a graduate-level business class at the University of Miami School of Business Administration.

Dr. Lara holds a Master's and Doctorate Degree in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology from the University of Miami, Coral Gables. Dr. Smith is Vanessa’s mentor, so she learned the importance of applied knowledge and adopted a StrongPath lifestyle, which is key to chronic disease prevention and optimal health. She enjoys strength training and High-intensity interval training. She is adept at all types of yoga, from Power to Yin practices. She is also great on skates.

Vanessa has both the scientific knowledge and “how to” experience needed to help others get started and progressively adopt the StrongPath in a customized way from their current condition. When it comes to nutrition, Dr. Lara doesn’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach; rather, she carefully examines each client’s distinctive biological makeup, goals and lifestyle to provide them with a personalized nutrition plan and advice.
