Josh Hillis helps people beat emotional eating and finally hit their body composition goals.
He puts research and coaching experience together to create cutting-edge weight loss systems.
Those cutting-edge weight loss systems show up in his books, workshops, and coaching.
Using a skill-based (not diet-based) approach allows people to create a new relationship with their bodies and with food, and get results that have previously never been possible.
His newest book is Lean and Strong: Eating Skills, Psychology, and Workouts (2020). In the works is a yet-untitled emotional eating book (2023).
He is the creator and head coach of GMB Fitness’ Eating Skills program.
He's been writing at joshhillis.com, since 2007. He's also written for Strength Matters Magazine, and has been quoted or featured in Experience Life! Magazine, The Denver Post, Los Angeles Times, Men’s Health, and USA Today.
He currently attends Metropolitan State University of Denver, and is doing a thesis on contextual behavioral science and emotional eating. He won the psychology department’s “Promising Teacher Award” for his work as a TA.
He has been a personal trainer since 2004. He also writes, fixes, and fact checks questions for the National Academy of Sports Medicine’s Personal Trainer Certification Exam.
