When a brilliant doctor is kicked out of his residency, his lifelong dream is crushed. He rebounds by opening a unique fitness facility - hiring personal trainers (with their own agendas ) while fighting off dangerously corrupt investors, fierce competition - and battling to get his license back.  

SYNOPSIS:

Thomas Rotterdam is an alpha dog doctor who gets railroaded out of his residency in his last month - in part because of the lousy people skills he developed in a traumatic childhood. Impatient and relentless, Thomas is a genius in working with the body - having recognized that BODIES. TELL. STORIES.

He becomes a supertrainer (getting financing from suspect backers) to create and open Bodies of Work - NYC- a fitness church whose commandment is "Your body's a temple.  Attract worshippers." Among the Bodies of Work - NYC training staff is Lora, the love of Thomas' life.The gym is run by Neyda Farris. She spars with Thomas while juggling her buff, bizarre staff.  Some trainers love what they do. For others, Bodies of Work-NYC is a pit stop on the way to bigger dreams. At BOW-NYC:  anorexic/bulimic Pilates instructors teach women to love their bodies, but hate their own; Supermodels sweat to lose 2 pounds while ignoring Vets with prosthetic legs in the rehab area; men plan penis enlargement surgery, Carmelo Anthony /J-Z types kickbox against their fans and haters...
