Joseph Correa competed as a professional tennis player for many years. He trained with some of the world's best athletes. Early on, he learned that by training in other sports such as soccer, football, basketball, swimming, and track, his overall athletic abilities also improved as well as by paying close attention to his diet. For this reason he worked on being disciplined in what he ate and more specifically when he ate. Joseph is constantly searching for better ways to get in shape and improve his performance. Even though he no longer competes on a consistent basis, he focuses on maintaining his level of athleticism. His goal is to reach old age and still be athletic, fit, flexible and most importantly healthy by sticking to The Vilcabamba Diet and by working out regularly.
