About the Author

Gino Spada was born and raised in Port Colborne, Ontario, Canada. In 1986, on his twenty- sixth birthday, he opened a full service health club in his home town while working full time as a machinist in the aerospace industry. Along with his fitness certification from the YMCA, he obtained his personal training certification from the American Council on Exercise in 1991. Although the money was certainly in the machinist trade, his heart was always with the health club. After nearly fifteen years in the aerospace industry, the last seven of which he also ran his health club, he took a leap of faith and followed his heart. In 1993, he quit his factory job and became a full time, self-employed health club owner and operator. He has been training members of his gym one on one for nearly thirty years, and along with his continuing education and study, has perfected his craft in strength training and functional training. It was along that path, as he helped prepare many aspiring amateur body builders for their day in the spotlight, that he discovered that weight loss and weight control was simply a result of eating balanced, healthy meals regularly throughout the day, and in the right amount.
After years of exposure to misconceptions and deception in the weight loss industry, Gino made a decision to do right by the consumer and attempt to eliminate the confusion by writing this book.
A proud husband and father, an experienced machinist, a successful business owner, an amateur body builder, a coach, a speaker, an active real estate investor, and now an accomplished author, Gino has come full circle with a focus now, on helping as many people as possible improve their quality of life forever.
