J Kuria -- Founder/Writer

J Kuria is the founder of Gicleé™ which he started as a hobby to write about fitness and help people enjoy healthier lifestyles and lead more fulfilling lives, after many of his friends sought him for advice on fitness, weight loss and muscle gain. A native of Nairobi, Kenya, he was previously a Product Manager at Xenocode and a Software Design Engineer on the Commerce Search team at Microsoft (Has now evolved to bing cash back). Prior to that he worked on Microsoft Exchange, IIS and MSMQ. He holds a BS degree in Computer Science and Economics from Yale University. He also serves as the secretary of the Seattle chapter of TAN (The African Network), and as volunteer on the MIT Enterprise Forum dinner commitee. He is involved in a technology start up currently in stealth mode--we hope to launch this month. In his spare time he enjoys table tennis (he once played Bill Gates as a prize for winning a tournament at work. Guess who won?), squash, salsa and working as a personal trainer for his friends-- there is no better feeling than seeing the confidence and sense of well being that results form someone transforming their body, and to know I was responsible! He maintains a personal blog here.

Frank Zane -- Consultant/Writer

Frank Zane is one of the most accomplished body builders in the history of the sport having won 3 Mr Olympia and 3 Mr Universe titles, even beating Arnold Schwartezenegger. Arnold may be more famous but Frank is widely regarded as having built the most elegant and aesthetically pleasing body. Once a high school science teacher, he tutored Arnold in algebra when he first moved from Austria to the United States and they remain close friends today. In addition to working with Gicleé™ to help our customers get the best results, Frank also serves as a consultant for the annual Arnold Classic held in Columbus, Ohio. He lectures and writes extensively about fitness, personal growth and anti-aging in his Building the Body magazine and offers the one-on-one Zane Experience through which he has trained over 3,000 people. In recent years he has pared down his efforts here and instead released the Train With Zane DVD in order to reach many more people. He is the most educated body builder and holds two Bachelors degrees and a Masters in Psychology. Frank was born and raised in Kingston, Pennsylvania but currently resides in sunny San Diego, California with his wife Christine and their two dogs. Lucy is a Labradoodle and Bob is Lhasa Opso.
