NFL and Washington State Star Anthony McClanahan

The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Anthony McClanahan. 

In 2003, Anthony McClanahan recognized the need to create a fitness program for kids. There was nothing on the market that he felt was targeted, or appropriate for the growing need for fitness programs that would help the hundreds of thousands of American children who were overweight. In this effort he developed the 41 Sports program, which has expanded over the years and serves thousands of men, women and children each year. The name 41 Sports originated from his football number while playing as a starting linebacker at Washington State University (1989-1993). In addition to fitness programs including boot camps, personal training, sports training, and conditioning, Anthony offers food coaching and has helped hundreds of people to reach and maintain their weight loss and overall health goals. Having achieved great success in this area, Anthony authored a book entitled The Power of 14, which provides daily nutritional needs, meal plans, and health tips to boost energy levels and help anyone to attain optimal health. The Power of 14 is a simplistic and easy to follow plan that he devised from lessons he learned from his grandmother who fed her community from her very own garden.  

During Anthony’s collegiate career at WSU, he played alongside athletes such as Drew Bledsoe, Mark Fields, Mike Pattinson, Torey Hunter, Singor Mobley, Justin Debeaumont, Darron Pointer, Marlin Brown and Paul Wulff, to name a few. He was coached by Mike Price, Bill Doba, and last but not least, his amazing mentor, Judy Doba. To this day, he holds several records at WSU. After college, Anthony went on to play for the Dallas Cowboys, Amsterdam Admirals and Calgary Stampeders, and also had a brief television stint on the hit show, Battle Dome Warriors.
