| Introduction | A MA native, Phil LeClair graduated from Worcester State College. He then moved to Santa Barbara, CA and spent 2 years working in spec. ed. During this time, he took on a PT job as a fitness trainer in trade for a gym membership. It was at this point that he began delving into the science of nutrition for sport and wellness. In 1994, he joined Bio-Foods. Beginning as a small start-up, Bio-Foods became the successful Balance Bar Co. In his 6 years with the company, Phil handled tech support, QA and product dev. After Kraft purchased Balance in 2000, Phil and family moved back East where he took a job with premiere nutrition supplement maker, Bariatrix. Phil went on to co-found Smart Nutrition Co., a retailer of nutrition product, then with online marketing agency EpikOne and now with Pete's RV Center. Tough Love Nutrition was started by Phil in 2006 as a compilation of his professional and personal experiences with nutrition and fitness. TLN is his crusade for good health and encourages individuals to shake hype and appreciate the benefits of making smart food, fitness and supplement choices. Phil, his wife and two children reside in VT. |
