Dan Clark is an accomplished athlete, fitness expert, author, television personality, bestselling author and TEDx Speaker.
After surviving a heart attack in December of 2013, Dan “Nitro” Clark received what he calls a second chance. Inspired by his near death experience, Dan has dedicated his life to helping others find their inner Gladiator and live a healthier, happier, more fit life.
Dan began his career as an athlete, playing football for San Jose State University where he was a standout defensive lineman. He then went on to play in the NFL for the Los Angeles Rams, and later on played in Europe.
Dan is best known from the smash hit TV show American Gladiators, where he played the iconic gladiator “Nitro” for seven seasons. The show ran in syndication for over 10 million weekly viewers and aired in over 40 countries.
After American Gladiators, Dan turned to acting, appearing in such motion pictures as Death Becomes Her (with Meryl Streep and Bruce Willis) and Equilibrium (with Christian Bale). He has also guest starred in TV series including Ellen, Walker, Texas Ranger, V.I.P., Married… with Children, Who's the Boss?, and Saved by the Bell.
