When you meet Erik Leander you might find yourself a bit intimidated. He’s focused, driven and massive. Erik is 6’3” and 265 pounds of lean muscle. He’s a master in the gym and in the kitchen. Erik’s drive began at age 10 when he bought is 1st weight bench from Walmart with money earned from mowing neighborhood lawns. Throughout his teenage years he studied nutrition and fitness books, and by age 17 he won the state of Florida for natural body building, training people twice his age, including his football coach. “By my senior year, I knew what profession I wanted to pursue, my class schedule consisted of three cooking classes and a weight lifting class”, Erik explains. “It was clear to me early in life that nutrition was just as important as fitness.”
Prior to serving delicious and nutritious meals to your door, Erik served our country in the United States Army. Upon his return to civilian life, Erik began training athletes. He trained former boxing World Heavyweight Champion Shannon Briggs and boxed professionally himself. Erik “The Viking” Leander had a record of 11-2 with 8 KOs. He always insisted his clients not only work hard in the gym, but eat right as well. His motto, “I’m not going to train you unless you eat the right foods as well”. Listening to his client’s struggle with developing healthy low carb meals that were delicious, Erik took to his own kitchen to prepare meals for his clients. Word quickly spread about this approach to gourmet meals that were healthy, affordable, and delicious. Erik moved from his kitchen to a full operating business where FuelFood.com was formed.
