Washingtonian Magazine:

Achieving your fitness goals is challenging, but Paul and his team are here to help.  As quoted by Cathy Alter:

"...Then there was Paul Medina, who earned the name Baseball Paul after he told me he used to train collegiate baseball players. He had biceps the size of Florida grapefruits...  After an hour of planks and pushups, giving him a piggyback ride to Ohio would have been preferable. Baseball Paul actually made me do chin-ups, and when my arms went limp he hugged my legs and lifted me up and down."
