In his twenty years of experience, he has received numerous certifications - most notably with the American College of Sports Medicine, National Strength and Conditioning Association, and the National Academy of Sports Medicine. He received his Certified Personal Training Specialist certificate from Fitness Institute International in Lighthouse Point, recognized as one of the most prominent vocational schools for fitness instructors and personal trainers in South Florida.

Frank became "addicted" to weight training and the world of bodybuilding from the first time he saw a Muscle & Fitness magazine. In it he saw pictures of weightlifting royalty - Arnold Schwarzenegger, Franco Colombo, and Lou Ferrigno. Frank started working out in his basement during high school, born and raised in New York City and on Long Island. But when he read a certain article in Muscle & Fitness, "Kinesiology of Exercise" by Michael Yessis, his path in life was set in stone. He became more intrigued with exercise kinesiology, and realized how much exercise was truly a science.

In November of 1991, Frank became certified as a personal trainer and moved to Florida. He began his personal training career at Bally’s Scandanavian, first at West Palm Beach then Boca Raton, where he was one of the top 10 producing personal trainers in South Florida. He would eventually become operations manager for Bally’s of Boca Raton and Coral Springs. He started working for a Coral Springs chiropractor in 1997, where he became more involved with the rehabilitation aspect of fitness.

Frank reads and absorbs all that he can about nutrition, supplementation, and rest and recovery. He is so passionate about health and fitness, he wants to share his knowledge with everyone.
