Leanness Lifestyle University
Leanness Lifestyle University was founded in 1999 by David Greenwalt. As an early adopter of the Internet, David saw the potential of two-way real-time communication unique to this form of media.
Leanness Lifestyle was launched from inception with a science-based educational framework. Having worked directly with clients since 1986, David had already realized that “calories in calories out” messaging didn’t work.
Telling people their weight was all their fault and all they needed to do was “eat less and exercise more” was, and is, the standard, and a grossly ineffective approach.
David knew the only real way to help people lose fat, keep muscle, and then keep the fat off permanently was to educate and provide a truly personal touch. Leanness Lifestyle was the first online program to couple nutrition, exercise and emotional-fitness education with accountability, motivation, and personal support.
Many evolutions and advancements have occurred since 1999 and continue today.
David is a Certified Wellness Coach earning his certification from the leading authority of wellness training—WellCoach™. Today, now more befitting of the original and continued education mindset, the website is called Leanness Lifestyle University (LLU). LLU provides a robust online campus with tools that lead the field in recording, tracking, reporting and scoring the behaviors optimal for successful weight-management. LLU is completely mobile and tablet friendly too!

Mike sits down with Ryan Burnett of Pattern Pros. Ryan talks about his transition out of the Marine Corps and how he founded Pattern Pros with some Marine Friends. Their business is a simple and ingenious way of patterning your shotgun without breaking the bank. Here at TFW, we love to connect with veterans who have overcome the challenges of transition to civilian life and have found a way to thrive after their time in the service. Connect with Ryan and Pattern Pros to see what they are up to next:

Today we sit down with Tom Dermody, head of Field of Dreams. Tom started Field of Dreams to bring military veterans and special needs kids to hunt and fish. He works relentlessly to create lifechanging and memorable experiences for those who might have not otherwise been able to hunt or fish in the great outdoors. Tom breaks down how he got started and why it is so important to be connected to the food we consume, the importance of being outdoors, being a responsible hunter and steward of the land, and what goes into the experiences he creates for others.  Find out more about Tom through social media and his website:
