Sal Di Stefano’s (@mindpumpdistefano) passion for fitness began when he picked up his first barbell at 13 years old. Any other teenager would have done a set of curls, but legend has it, Sal did squats. He was always different like that and it wasn’t long until everyone would notice. 
At age 18, Sal started working as a personal trainer, becoming the youngest general manager at 24 Hour Fitness by 19. Not long after, he opened his own studio. Its reputation and success proved he was more than a personal trainer, but also a gifted businessman. And it was this entrepreneurial spirit that guided Sal to where we see him today. 
He is the voice of Mind Pump, a published author, and one of the most trusted and respected faces in the fitness industry. Sal is an indispensable podcast host: the one who summarizes research when Justin and Adam trip over scientific words, the proverbial guinea pig when there’s a new peptide and the conductor trying his best to keep conversation on track when we all know it’s headed off the rails.
