Who is John Martin?
Hello there! Thanks for taking the time to read my ‘About Me’ page. I promise to keep it short and not bore you.
My name is John Martin Forberger and I am an award-winning triathlete living a gluten-free lifestyle. I lived in beautiful Miami Beach for the last 6 years and won two triathlons last season down in Florida. After being diagnosed as gluten-intolerant back in 1998 (when the world knew almost nothing about gluten), I changed my diet completely for the better. Thanks to my amazing nutritionist, I have now been living a gluten-free lifestyle for nearly 10 years. It was the best decision of my life.
The dietary changes I’ve encountered have empowered me to become a smart healthy triathlete, not just a calorie-burner eating whatever foods I can get my hands on. Sadly the latter is the truth for most endurance athletes. They feel that because they are biking, running and swimming on a constant basis, their diet can include any food and it won’t effect their performance and overall well-being. This is wrong. Every single thing you put in your food affects your body; reaction time, strength, sleep patterns and more.
What began as a simple outdoor hobby has now turned into a rewarding full-time job. Over the years I have coached both the everyday mom and serious athletes in Florida and New Jersey. My goal is to teach everyone the benefit of living a gluten-free lifestyle and also help gluten-free people realize their goals of becoming endurance athletes. Let me help you!
I am here to inform and teach… so feel free to contact me with your questions. I would be glad to hear from you.
Stay happy,
John Martin
