After the Olympics, Mitch was appointed to the president’s Council for Physical Fitness by President Reagan. During this time, he fulfilled numerous speaking engagements, endorsements and appearances across the country. In 1986, Mitch made his acting debut in Columbia Pictures’ “American Anthem” and went on to appear in several commercial advertisements including Levi’s, Diet Coke, Nike, Vidal Sassoon, Soloflex and Texaco. In 1995, he was inducted into UCLA’s Hall of Fame, and in 2006, he was inducted into the US Olympic Hall of Fame.

Mitch has served as a journalist/broadcaster, a motivational coach and a fitness expert. His passion for health and wellness led to his founding of Mitch Gaylord’s Gold Medal Fitness and the creation of the Perfect 10 Workout.

Mitch’s commitment to creating an enduring legacy that will impact the world of Health & Fitness is surpassed only by his passion for his family as a dedicated father of three children and a loving husband to his wife, Valentina.
