“The road to wellness is a journey, not a destination.”

 
 

Shaun Smears

My whole life growing up revolved around sports. I spent every moment playing any sport I could. After graduating I then moved to Alberta and started at Red Deer College for Engineering. I became interested in the fitness industry first as a stress reliever and it quickly became a passion for me. I changed my major to Kinesiology gaining my diploma in fitness and health promotion. I started to enjoy power lifting and bodybuilding learning from some very talented lifters. Upon completing my diploma I decided to continue for my degree in Physical Education with a concentration in Activity and Nutrition. This was a great experience allowing me to work with elite athletes at the University in the Sports and Performance Laboratory.
As a trainer I am always looking to grow. I look for new methods and styles of training as well as sources of nutrition to utilize. I currently am an avid amateur body builder and enjoy sports such as hockey, golf, squash and soccer.

With this knowledge I aspire to help people obtain their fitness goals whether it is for health, performance or aesthetic changes in their physiques. I utilize a combination of my experience in sports, bodybuilding and knowledge from my schooling. I take a very holistic approach to this with both the nutritional and physical aspects and combining them for people to reach their maximum potential. I enjoy seeing the changes people make and how those changes can affect their life, self-esteem and day to day living.
