Science Corner 

Introducing Kyle Hunt, Gym Insight’s new writer.

It’s not often one is replaced by someone both admittedly exceptional and exceptionally appropriate for the job. After six years of writing for Gym Insight and a career spanning decades, I’ve decided to retire the professional pen.

In our quest to find a new writer, we were lucky enough to meet Kyle Hunt.

Mr. Hunt is one of you. He is a fitness coach, a competitive powerlifter, a dad, and a business person. He has run an online personal training company since 2010, hosted more than 545 episodes of The Absolute Strength Podcast, authored several books on training and nutrition, publishes a thoughtful weekly newsletter, and writes about the industry through the lens of an old soul.

He is excited to meet our clients, add his spin to our content, and help in bringing our company — and its’ remarkable software — into the latest digital age. Please take his calls, reach out to him with ideas, and welcome him with the generosity that is our Gym Insight client base.

Yours in gratitude,

Catherine Mitseas, M.A.
