ALASKA FITNESS SOLUTIONS

  Hello, my name is Shawn Fears, I was born in Fairbanks, Alaska, on June 1st, 1975. My training background starts out in High School with 3 years of varsity sports(football and wrestling) and 2 years of competing in Olympic style weightlifting(lifts:snatch, clean & jerk), under a certified USA Olympic Weightlifting Club Coach. After High Shool I continued to train for a few years, and like most High School athletes, as I got older I found myself working out less and less regular.

 

  Since turning 24, I have had surgery on my left shoulder, a herniated disk that resulted in me not being able to walk to 6 months, 3 epidurals, 3 months of physical therapy, 2 knee surgeries 5 months apart, and 8 more months of physical therapy.  After being told by numerous doctors to go home and take ibuprophen and see me if it still hurts, I decided to take matters into my own hands.  Which led me to The International Sports Science Association (ISSA), with whom I have earned my first certification, as a Fitness Trainer (CFT).

 

  These experiences have led me back to what I love to do, which is not only training, but educating myself on the proper ways to condition my body for whatever comes my way.  This allows me to live the healthy and more active lifestyle that I always wanted.  Because of my experiences I feel like I have a deeper understanding of what you are looking for, and why you are seeking the help of a trainer.

 

  At the begining of the 2008, exactly one year after my second knee sugery, I will start training for my first Triathlon event, although it is only a sprint race (500 yard swim, 20 kilometer bike, 5 kilometer run) this will be a huge accomplishment for me, and if I can do this then YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU SET YOUR MIND TO.  If this is the kind of accomplished feeling that you would like to achieve in your life then contact Alaska Fitness Solutions and start living the life you always dreamed of today.
