Day 47

Workout: 30min Elliptical, 30min Treadmill walking
Nutrition: 1754 / Protein: 133 / Carbs: 49 / Fat: 109
Weight: -n/a-

I thought it was wing night in the hotel the band always stays at in Baltimore ($5doz wings.) So I saved all my calories for this, however I was wrong...

6 scoops of Xtend BCAA's during the day and during my hour of fairly slow paced cardio.

7pm: 2 cookies my girlfriend made me after the gym. Man, they were seriously good. Then, I hit the bar. 16 deep fried wings and a Kit Kat Extra Crispy for desert.

Calories: 1628 / Protein: 101 / Carbs: 49 / Fat: 109

Simple day on tour, spent most of it chilling in the hotel room. I don't have cable tv at home, so I abuse the hotel cable when offered the chance.

Steve McKnight

Living a double life as both a musician and a personal trainer is a dream. For years, I pursued playing music with all my passion, but after a lifetime of being overweight and dealing with back aches and joint pain, enough was enough.

I attended Slippery Rock University for my double degree in Music Performance and Music Education, then moved to Quebec and received my Masters in Jazz Performance from McGill University in Montreal.

Studying trumpet from John Gillespie, Dr. Stephen Hawk, Jack Schantz, Kevin Dean, Joe Sullivan - I've come to love classical and jazz with equal passion. Later in life, playing with bands like the Balcony Big Band, No Bad JuJu, Orchesta Tropical, Azucar and greats like Bernadette Peters, The Temptations, The O.J.'s, Phil Woods, Sean Jones and many more has opened me to the love of even more great music.

As a trainer, I am certified through N.E.T.A. and work at various gyms teaching my own creation BodyBlitz, which is based on the Primal/Paleo bodyweight fitness that I've come to understand is vital to our healthy and quality of life. I coach people across the country on fitness and nutrition for Beachbody, and do in-home personal training with my own company KnightFit.
