That’s why she is my go to for my patients who need more directive care for their musculoskeletal pain.

    Talking bodybuilding with the great GMac

    Today on the show we are sitting down with one of the largest guests I’ve had on to date! His given name is Gary McClain but we all know him as Gmac. Looking back through time (thanks to the socials) it seems Gary knew exactly what he wanted to do as a kid growing up here in Gainesville. Actually it would seem he had two interests, bodybuilding and entertaining. Now, decades later, Gary has created a life that nurtures both of these passions. Here to tell us a little more about his journey though fitness…the one and only GMAC!

    Let's Welcome the great Brooke Maratta to the show

    Today on the show we are talking with the creator and Host of The Write It Down Podcast, Brooke Maratta!  I have known Brooke since her days as a student at UF and have always appreciated her positive, upbeat vibe.  She is, after all, a woman of great faith, but also has a witty, self-deprecating, sense of humor.  Lastly, she will deny this but she is also a really good athlete!  It made perfect sense to all that knew her back then that with her magnetic personality and a face for TV, that she was destined for stardom.   But, as Lee Corso would say, “Not so fast my friend”.  With the television industry changing so much, jobs were few and far between.  Instead of sitting around and waiting for opportunity to knock, Brooke decided to create her own production using podcasting as her vehicle.  With that, The Write It Down Podcast was born.  Since its inception she has interviewed dozens of absolute legends such as Joe Theismann, Marcus Allen, Rod Woodson, Tim Brown, and Ronnie Lott.  Each of her episodes ends with a little nugget of wisdom provided by her guests and she encourages us to “write it down”.
