Dr. Donato is a physical therapist and chiropractor with a strong emphasis in natural health practice.  He has been a raw fooder since 2004.  He started teaching the Dolphin's Healthy Boot Camp January 2006.  He teaches the 10-week intensive natural health, raw food nutrition and lifestyle course five times a year.  In January 2009, he started teaching the new Dolphin's Healthy Web Camp, a 6-week webinar for people around the world who have access to high speed internet service.  For those who wish to attend the "Boot Camp" but are out of this area, the "Web Camp" is the alternative.  Now people can study and learn Dolphin's raw food lifestyle without leaving home or office. 

Dr. Donato initially went on the raw vegan lifestyle by following the Hallelujah Diet in September 2004.  Prior to following the Hallelujah Diet, he was suffering from bouts of vertigo on and off for two years.  Taking medications did nothing to cure the vertigo.  Within 4 months on the Hallelujah Diet, the symptoms of vertigo completely disappeared.  He started hiking and running because of the vibrant energy and improved health.  He has hiked Mt. Whitney (14,497 ft) every year since the fall of 2004.  He also ran the Rock-N-Roll Half Marathon in San Jose, CA in 2006.  Then in the fall of 2007 and 2008 he ran the Portland Marathon in Portland, OR.  As a tribute and testament to superior health, he plans to either hike Mt. Whitney and/or run a marathon every year.

Dr. Donato teaches Dolphin's Natural Health and Raw Food Lifestyle Program in Dolphin's Healthy Boot Camp, a totally structured 85-100 percent raw vegan vegetarian lifestyle.  Following a totally raw vegan vegetarian diet since July 2007 has given him new insights into natural cures for chronic degenerative diseases, sports performance and maximal vibrant health.  Studying the field of natural health and combining them with the raw food lifestyle and clinical studies, he continues to update Dolphin's Healthy Boot Camp with the most current information and application to natural healthy living.

He is a friend of the world-renowned Boutenko family.  Learning from Victoria Boutenko has given him added insights into the raw food world and the maximal vibrant health that comes from following the raw food lifestyle.  He continues his studies in natural health and applies the principles in the clinical setting.

Dave Hubbard was a pro football player for the New Orleans Saints.  I first met Dave at the Hallelujah Acres Health Minister Reunion in Shelby, North Carolina in the spring of 2008 where he introduced a remarkable portable fitness tool that encompasses the ideal exercise equipment that more than meets the standard in the healthcare arena when it comes to spinal rehabilitation and core strength training.  Dave is a guest instructor for high intensity strength training in Dolphin's Healthy Boot Camp.

Dave is the founder of the  Fit 10 Quick Strength Trainer that Clent used in Phase 1 to maximize lean mass gain and fat loss while in the raw food lifestyle program for reversing degenerative diseases and improving overall health.   

Dave's path to discovering and developing the Fit 10 Quick Strength Trainer is as follows:

In 1979, Dave moved from the active world of professional football (New Orleans Saints) into a sedentary job. His playing weight as an offensive tackle, combined with a serious back injury incurred from a near fatal accident, made it difficult to get and stay physically fit. After learning that the average life span of an ex professional football player was only 53 years of age, he decided to get serious about his health.

Following his back injury, Dave discovered a method of exercise that allowed him to build strength without putting pressure on the spine. While attempting to get and stay fit he found that everyone was struggling with the same challenges. As he researched why most people were failing to maintain their fitness, he realized that far too many people were spending way too much time doing the wrong type of exercise.  He went on to develop and bring to patent a unique method of exercise that allows anyone , at any age, to get and stay physically fit by changing to an anaerobic workout that emphasizes strength. The added bonus of this formula is that it takes a fraction of the time most think they need to spend exercising, with better results.

Dave is the president of Fitex Solutions, and known today as America's Fitness Coach®. He has presented to companies,  and organizations since 1989, motivating and challenging people to take better care of their most valuable asset-their body. Dave has been featured many times on radio and television. His recently published book is titled: Why Strength MATTERS.
