Shawn has personally been on both sides of the spectrum: the guy trying to put on a bunch of weight and the unhealthy overweight person that needed to take bad weight off. With his vast knowledge on proper supplementation from working in that industry for 10 years, he has also worked in management for 23 years, operated gyms, and has been a personal trainer. He is a lifestyle and competitive coach, and he has a range of certifications ranging from nutrition to personal training, strength training, group fitness, hypertrophy training, powerlifting and mentoring with other coaches. He is always continuing his education through personal studies and research, applying what he finds to himself and experimenting, and currently working on the J3 University course.

Shawn's achievements in the industry are notable. He built a team ranging from lifestyle members wanting to be their healthiest and happiest to many nationally qualified competitors to working with IFBB pros on the team. They have been noted by many for creating a positive, safe, and healthy environment for their community and have been told that he’s changed people's lives from wanting to end it all to loving every minute of life with a new perspective on things. There was a conversation he had about 10 years ago stating that because of what he said to them prior, they chose not to take their life that night, and they thank him for that. This was a defining moment that he was on the right path. Many have said that his reputation precedes his name, which is humbling and years of work and dedication make it all worth it. He networks with some of the other finest companies or people and collaborates with them with Savage Life as a service or outlet.

Shawn's skills and expertise are impressive. He has powerful words and actions to change and encourage one's mindset. He doesn't just talk; he leads by example and walks the walk. He has many perspectives on all outlooks of life, and his relentless drive in his own personal self-development and its endlessness of leveling up are notable as he shares and helps others grow in that way. He always seeks to increase his knowledge in various aspects and ways, research and execution of multiple training styles, extreme attention to finest details, problem-solving, and communication. His many years of experience in the field make him a well-respected and knowledgeable mentor.

Outside of work, Shawn enjoys fishing, hunting, hiking, adventures, being a vocalist/musician, writing, shooting and developing videos and content, visiting new places, spending time with close people, working and developing more skill sets, endlessly networking with like-minded individuals, and living a life of freedom from the societal norm while developing more self-happiness.

Shawn's future goals include building and establishing a community based on culture, owning a gym based on that very culture, continuing to add more coaches and services to the Savage team, keep lifting others up to take control of their lives and unlock their hidden savage, building more leaders to help create more leaders to be their own hero, growing the Savage Takeover, and unlocking the true meaning of life for everyone he works with. He also aims to be able to and continue to not only grow this during his time but ultimately  leave something legendary behind for his wife and family when his time of the essence has run out. He wants to illustrate to others that they can do it just like he did and it all started with being your own fucking hero. 

Driven by their stories, she has spent the last eight years relentlessly working towards achieving her best physique and ultimately earning my IFBB pro card. Alongside her husband and partner in fitness, she has experienced tremendous personal growth, and it has motivated her to share my journey with others.

She is now committed to helping her  community achieve their health and fitness goals through personal training and coaching. Seeing her members thrive and enjoy the results of their hard work is the most rewarding aspect of her work. She loves being able to educate and motivate others to take charge of their health and embrace their own fitness journeys.
