For Max, optimum health and
fitness are a way of life and a passion, and having a lean, tone physique
naturally follows. Good genetics sure help! Max views modeling as a creative
outlet and a way to challenge himself physically. While he is definitely
committed and professional, he views modeling and acting more as fun and less as work,
and a great way to meet interesting people.
This is primarily because Max’s number one profession and career is as a pilot
for a major airline, JetBlue Airways.
This also means Max can fly for free to any location you need him too.
Max is a Captain
for JetBlue Airways and has been fortunate to fly with them for 12 years. Prior to joining JetBlue, Max was a carrier-based, navy
pilot for 10 years. He flew the E-2C Hawkeye on board the carriers USS Abe
Lincoln and Carl Vinson, deploying twice to the Persian Gulf. Max received his
commission as a navy officer through ROTC, graduating from the University of
Colorado with a B.A. in Mathematics. While at C.U.-Boulder he pole-vaulted on
the varsity track team for 2 years, and was on the club wrestling team.
Max officially
began his professional writing career by writing health and fitness articles for the JetBlue pilots’ Intranet site, and
is recognized by his peers as the resident fitness advisor. His
featured articles can be found on this web site, and
while the primary intended audience is pilots and their occupational hazards,
they can be helpful to anyone who is interested in fitness and physiology.
Max also coaches weight-loss groups and 'biggest-loser' clubs.
Max always writes from a naturalistic, health-first, vanity-second, point of
view.
His research and
expertise has now parlayed and culminated into a fat-loss book co-authored with
Dr. Candace Booth that was published in July 2008. Titled:
'How much fat
are you carrying?' This is a guide-book that teaches holistic
fat-loss, (as opposed to weight-loss), principles, focusing on over all health
thru lifestyle and nutrition corrections and balances, with a leaner physique as
the end result.
Max is married to his
wife of 19 years and college sweetheart, Donna, and in 2004 they had a
baby girl, Bryce.
Bryce Wettstein is following in her family's athletic footsteps &
is already a sponsored skateboarder & surfer at age 10! They reside in Encinitas
California, north county San Diego. In 2011 Max had a 2nd daughter named
Summer Brynn! When he is not flying, coaching
Bryce, or exercising, Max can be found surfing, skateboarding his backyard bowl,
playing beach-volleyball, snow skiing,
or motorcycle riding: So action-photographers take note if you want to
capture a fit-physique in motion. A true athlete in action - NOT simply posing!
To **book Max, contact him
at
max@maxwettsteinfitness.com. Max normally has up to 16 days a month of
availability and CAN fly for free if direct-booked without requiring
needless, wasteful casting or audition travel time. Being an airline pilot is a tough job, but
somebody has to do it! Max is ALWAYS in shape and ready to shoot at a
moments notice - ANY other model who claims they need time to "prepare", is
not a professional, nor a true fitness-model, and they're wasting your time.
Bodybuilders 'bulk up' and then lean back down - not fitness-models. Short
term, flash-in-the-pan talent lacking good genetics, use performance enhancing
drugs to unnaturally morph and distort their physique, and consequently wreck
their health, not professional fitness-models.
Thank you for your
interest and time and have a happy, healthy, active day! "Optimum
health is my method of life. Focus on fitness & your ideal physique will
follow." - Max Wettstein.
