A few years ago I had the opportunity to see the great Jerry Lee Lewis in concert.

As fun as it was, he was pretty old...he could barely make it on stage, let alone jump on the bench while playing the piano

As fate would have it, however my wife and I had season tickets to the Utah Symphony where today's guest was performing a "Jerry Lee Lewis" type tribute

Dave Bennett's show was the exact opposite of Jerry Lee's show

Dave jumped on the bench while pounding on the piano

The energy was infectious!

And, through a photo we posted on social media of Dave doing his thing we got connected

Dave and I found we had a mutual love for jazz, rock and roll and classic bodybuilding

Join me for an engaging conversation with this dynamic performer about his life, his career and how taking control of his health has helped him perform and have more energy at his 40th birthday than ever before!
