Breaking Barriers, Not Bones, Tony Jacobsen Earns Personal Trainer Certification

LOS ANGELES - Aug. 19, 2015 - PRLog -- Los Angeles, California - August 19, 2105 - Having been born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Brittle Bone Disease), having had 70 fractures, 12 surgeries, and 4 steel rods in his legs, Tony let his disability get the best of him. At age 42, enough was enough and he pushed himself physically, mentally, and emotionally through a major transformation. He got stronger, dropped 40 lbs. and started doing things physically that he never thought possible; running, jumping, and plyometric exercises.

Through his transformation, he realized that his new mission in life would be to help others, with disabilities or without, get healthy.

“I want to share my story,” says Tony, “so I can inspire others to break through barriers of their own and live the healthy life that they deserve.”

Through public speaking, his website http:/www.disablemydisability.com, and now with his certification as a Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) , Tony looks forward to motivating, inspiring, and teaching others how to live a healthy life despite having a disability through proper fitness and nutrition.

Tony Jacobsen is a Keynote Speaker, Writer, Creator of Disable My Disability, as well as an Actor and DJ. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and enjoys spreading his message through various creative outlets.
