Who is behind the Fit Over 40 Challenge?
When people ask me what I do for a living. I tell them:
“I help people get fit and transform their lives!”
But what I really want to say is:
” I use my super power of motivation to make losing weight simple and add an element of fun to it!”
And what I really want to say is:
I am an crazy Florida Gator fan, who loves sports, gets a little loud coaching my daughter’s soccer teams, and loves using the Internet to write, shoot videos, and coach clients through my online programs!
I am David McGarry and I just recently turned 40 years old. I am not drowning in sorrow because I am now 40 but rather energized and in better shape now than in my 30’s!
One of the biggest reasons and my “WHY” for wanting to get in the best shape of my life and for creating this Fit Over 40 Challenge is because at the young age of 67 my father died of a massive heart attack.
Being in the health and fitness industry I felt guilty I couldn’t do anything to change his habits and his lifestyle. But more than that what bothered me the most about his passing was he never got to meet his granddaughters!
So, I have made it my goal and my mission, God willing, to make sure I am fit and in shape when and if my daughters have children so I can be there to see them!
For the past 2 decades I have been helping people of all ages get fit but this site is reflective of my journey in staying fit in my 40’s. Getting older does not have to be a burden and if you are not currently in the best shape of your life it is not too late. So, I hope to help inspire and educate you on how to manage and create a healthy life in your 4th decade of life and beyond.
