Our Team

Washington D.C. (Shaw Location)

Expertise

We are a group of fitness and nutrition fiends that love learning new methods, theories, and techniques within the industry. As a team, we come from a diverse set of backgrounds, from physiology and exercise science, to kinesiology, to even business and psychology.

We’re all athletes in our own realms – powerlifter, figure competitor, marathoner, and swimmer. We’ve all realized that regardless of what your fitness/health goals are…you’re much better off if you know where you are, so you can know where you want to get to!

Meet our leaders

We are athletes, health nuts, and science nerds.
