When people ask me what I do for a living. I tell them:
“I impact and transform lives physically and mentally.”
But what I really want to say is:
” I use my super powers to motivate and transform lives through my years of experience and knowledge of what really works to get someone to change!
And what I really want to say is:
I am an crazy Florida Gator fan, who loves sports, gets a little loud coaching my daughter’s soccer teams, and loves to write, shoot videos, and see the people I work with change their life physically and mentally!
I am David McGarry but everyone calls me “Coach Dave!” I just recently turned halfway to a century. I am not drowning in sorrow because I am now 50 but rather energized to help add value and significance to others who are looking to make a change and start living a healthy and stronger life!
One of my biggest reasons and my “WHY” for wanting to get in the best shape of my life is because at the young age of 67 my father died of a massive heart attack. Being in the health and fitness industry I felt guilty I couldn’t do anything to change his habits and his lifestyle. But more than that he never got to meet his granddaughters, which bothers me to this day. So, I have made it my goal, God willing, to make sure I am fit and in shape when and if my daughters have children so I can be there to see them!
For the past 2 decades I have been helping people of all ages get fit but this site is reflective of my personal endeavors and projects I want to pursue. My hope is to help inspire and educate others to not settle for average and to change their life for the better.

I love Disney and Disney movies! Some of my favorite are “Remember the Titans,” “Secretariat,” “Lion King,” and “Toy Story” to name a few!
I am half Italian and half Irish so not sure what you call me but I can tell you I love Italian food and have the gift of gab!
I can’t whistle! I know my kids make fun of me š
I absolutely love sports. I feel it has molded me into who I am!
I have a man crush on Tim Tebow!
I did a 6 hour “skin ski trip” in CO and although I may be being overdramatic I thought I was going to die at the top of the mountain when I finished!
I wanted to be a Navy Seal then realized I was not tough enough and mentally strong to make it through!
If I could do anything I would be a High School Varsity Football Coach.
I try to sing but am really horrible at it.
As a kid I was a melting pot. I liked to play sports, listen to hard rock and surf on the weekends.
I hope that gives you a little insight to who I am and I hope to have the honor to serve you!!
Coach Dave
