Guest Two: Jake Sawyer Trainer, Model, Actor, and Veteran of the Iraq War

  Well I graduated from the University of Nebraska with an exercise science degree and sports nutrition minor.  I know have a personal training business in LA and Palm Springs, I train celebrities, athletes, artist, and anyone else trying to lose body fat, gain muscle.  I'm very well know for being able to get clients to look there best in a very short period of time ie, photo ready or film ready.  I also plan adventure trips for clients and train them to be able to climb ice, kayak, white water raft, hike, live on the edge.  I've taken clients to Alaska, Belize, and many weekend hiking trips in California
I'm also pursuing a acting and fitness modelling career.  Ive worked on the set of Little Britain, root of all evil, Workout, American Gladiators, shot for Iron man mag, Men's Workout, Body Building.com, Tylenol commercial, and many national print campaigns.  All without any proper representation, but Id love to speak with agencies or mangers!
I'm also an Operation Iraqi Freedom vet I was running convoys all over Iraq from Feb 03- May 04.  I had one of the most dangerous jobs in combat running gun trucks and transporting goods all over the country.  6 months into the war my vehicle was hit with an IED and shot me out of the door at 30 mph.  Not realizing my injuries at the time I tried to rescue women and children from the blast while taking enemy fire because we were in a full blown road side attack!  After clearing the area I noticed the pain in my Left foot.  My Left foot was injured in the blast resulting in surgery.  I'm now training to put together support groups for veterans related to the fitness industry and a well known photographer Ian Sitren is pitching the ideas to some fitness industry execs!  I hope we get the finical support we need to help!
