Over the holidays I sat down with Bill Hartman to talk about working, learning, how to create the perfect athlete, as well as how he broke into the publishing industry.
If you’re not already familiar with Bill, he is a physical therapist working out of Indianapolis. There he co-owns a gym and PT clinic. His clients include kids, professional athletes, CEOs, and average joes.
His internship program at IFAST has generated a number of world class physical therapists and trainers, many of whom now work in the NBA.
This was a fun talk and I hope you enjoy it.
