About Dennis Rodgers
My story began shortly after it nearly ended…
On March 2, 1969, I died. But to paraphrase Eric Idle, I got better! I was later told that I was lucky to have survived and that it was for only one reason—my incredible level of physical strength and fitness. They had a protocol for what happened to me—anaphylaxis resulting from a mismatched transfusion—but I was the only person who had ever survived it. Since that day, I have not taken my health and fitness for granted, and I don’t take yours for granted either. The path I’ll set down for you will not be difficult to understand nor will it be difficult to follow through, because the results will be fast, and dramatic and YOU will be awesome.
I’ve had multiple careers, including factory work, musician, teacher, accounting, management, controller, IT, author, COO, Realtor and finally… personal trainer for the past 20 years. I think I may have found something that can hold my attention!
