Bill Maeda is a 53 year old personal trainer who has developed a specific training method incorporating asymmetrical loads, rotational movements, and specific breathing patterns. His methods have allowed him to achieve and maintain an absolutely incredible physique, impeccable movement quality, and a more robust and functional life all while staying injury-free well past the half-century mark. His breathing methods have also provided him greater endurance during high-intensity training, on and off the mat, and have also transformed his personality to be more relaxed and happy with less anxiety.
