Most fitness trainers have a passion for nutrition. Drew Manning and his wife Lynn are no exception. But while most trainers work hard to maintain sculpted figures and top levels of fitness, Drew has become famous for taking a different approach.
In fact, for six long months, Drew let himself become overweight and unhealthy, and the world took notice.
You may have heard of Drew’s bizarre experiment. He went from fit to fat simply by eating what has been called the “Standard American Diet.” Then, without the help of any extreme or faddish diets, he lost the weight and regained an enviable figure.
All of this was well documented, first on Drew’s website and YouTube videos, then later on major media broadcasts including Dr. Oz, Good Morning America, and the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
