Along with writing a weekly health and fitness blog in the Huffington Post, David is a contributor to LL Cool J's boo "Platinum 360 Diet & Lifestyle", and has been called upon as a fitness consultant for a New York Times Best Selling Book, various movie productions, television shows, corporations, professional sports teams, national magazine publications, members of law enforcement, and military. David has also been responsible for organizing multiple youth athletic programs including popular speed & sports performance development camps on the west coast that have helped many high school athletes earn scholarships to major universities across the country.
David's athletic background includes success in track and field, football, boxing, kickboxing, muay thai, baseball, wrestling and swimming. While in pursuit of his athletic dreams, David had the privaledge of training along side many phenomenal athletes from the NFL, NBA, NHL, PGA, CFL, USATF and US Olympic Team. Some of those athletes include Donovan McNabb, Adam Archuletta, Todd Heap, Trung Candidate, Wally Szczerbiak, Loren Woods, Mushin Muhammad, Jake Plummer, John Capel, Greg Oliver, Gary Hall Jr, Martay Jenkins, Brian Jennings, Aeneas Williams, Rob Moore, Dan O'Brien, Stacey Dragilla and Dwight Freeny to name a few.

His experience working along side and learning from some of the top strength and conditioning coaches and athletes in the world prepared him for a very easy transition from a star athlete to a star trainer.
In 2003 David teamed up with famed Celebrity Fitness Guru and New York Times Best Selling Author David "Scooter" Honig to form SX-FITNESS LLC.
