The former assistant strength coach spoke admiringly of David Wright on the YouTube video, whom he coached in the past. Moreover, he revealed that Wright might take credit for the success of Athlean X. The bodybuilding coach said, ” (Wright) he’s going to say that he actually is responsible for the creation of the business and the success of the business because he was one of the first people who appeared in the video with me back in 2009.”

Moreover, Cavaliere agreed to give up all his royalties if Wright agreed to a match. “I will give you royalties from Athlean X. All accrued up to this point, if you could for once beat me in fantasy football. Needless to say, that ain’t happening, so my money should be pretty secure, ” added the vlogger, highlighting the improbability.
