In this episode Derek Champagne interviews Siphiwe Baleka. Fox Sports won an Emmy for Changing Lanes: The Siphiwe Baleka story.
Siphiwe Baleka is the founder of Fitness Trucking, LLC and serves as the Driver
Health and Fitness Coach at Prime Inc., one of America’s largest trucking companies.
His innovative, on-the-go wellness program has helped thousands of truck
drivers lose weight and reclaim their health (69% of truck drivers are obese; the
trucking industry is the least healthy of any industry in the country).
His premise is that ANYONE with 4 minutes can get fit. What works for truckers can work
for any sedentary person! Formerly, Baleka served as the Driver Health Editor
for both Road King magazine and The Trucking Network magazine. After being
raised in Chicago by a single dad, he graduated from Yale University and is the
first African American ever named to the First Team All-Ivy League Swim Team.
He missed qualifying for the 1992 Olympic Swimming Trials in the 100 freestyle
by just 0.8 seconds! He is the author of 4-Minute Fit (Simon & Schuster).
