Here at That's Fit, we're forever grateful for the service, courage and sacrifice made by the heroic men and women who serve as military, law enforcement officers, and firefighters. We're so grateful, that we'd like to dedicate some features to both showing our heroes off, and learning a little bit in the process as well. If you serve your country courageously, are a veteran or know someone who does, please return this form completed to Fitz along with a photo and we'll share your story with the world.
Name: David Anthony Espeut
Age: 34
Heroic Occupation: Lieutenant (US Navy) Resigned- CG-52 (USS Bunker Hill); FFG-43 (USS THACH); Naval Special Warfare Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S)
If you're in the military...where are you? N/A Resigned from Navy as of September 2002, Suspended Special Agent Application to FBI in favor of Starting/Raising Family in Australia
How often do you exercise? Every day: 30 to 60 minutes.
What type of exercise do you do? Jogging (10-20 minutes), walking the dog (10-20 minutes),bench, pull ups, dips, push-ups, abdominals, shoulder exercises, and curls with dumbells. I also freestyle swim at least once per month. Chasing My Kids= Never-ending
What gets you to workout, even when you're feeling lazy? Fitness is just part of my lifestyle. I feel bad, guilty, and weak if I don't. Getting ones blood pumping is a great way to start the day.
What's on your MP3 player? I do not usually listen to music while I workout; I just knock it out. Anything that sounds good with energy works for me though.
Favorite healthy food? Any pasta dish and Monavie nutritional drink.
Favorite not-so-healthy food? Pizza, fried Calamari, fish and chips, and beer.
Greatest fitness accomplishment? Completing Hell Week at BUD/S and the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington DC
How does fitness apply to your job? 1. Presents good 1st impression (one only has one shot to make one). 2. Helps my wife and I to promote our nutritional drink distribution business. 3. I need energy to keep up with my two little ones; Joshua, three and Rachel, two.
Best part of doing what you do? Living a life without regrets and passion.
Best fitness advice? Enjoy it. Be consistent and persistent because it's easier to build muscle than it is to lose fat!
Anything you'd like to add about your service? Pray! Encourage all servicemen and women regardless of what military branch they are in. They are all making incredible sacrifices for our daily freedoms.
**Just an FYI. I went to elementary school with David. He was the sweetest little guy with glasses back then...and I loved him. I couldn't be prouder of the man he's become. An American hero with a beautiful family. I'm blown away!
