On many occasions, Sal Fichera has been recognized in the media as an authority on many health, nutrition and fitness-related topics. Media professionals often call upon Fichera for his expertise—making him an in-demand writer, interview resource, consumer advocate and commentator. He is the author of Stop Aging – Start Training (by Basic Health Publications, Inc.) and is a column writer for the health magazine, Healthwise. Also, he is included on the Editorial Board of Advisors for Looking After Your Body—a book by Reader’s Digest. This is in recognition of the chapter he wrote detailing aerobic, strengthening, flexibility and balance exercises.
