DAT, MS, ATC
I’m Dr. Shay. Thanks for stopping by!
I started this company as a way to combine all the things I love about sports performance, rehabilitation, and recovery. I am continually in awe of our bodies and what they are capable of doing with the right tools and technology! I have an incredible staff and together we bring the most dynamic sports performance and recovery business in the state.
I have been in the profession since 2012. I have a bachelors degree in Athletic Training, masters degree in Strength & Conditioning, and a doctorate in Athletic Training. I have worked with athletes, in sports medicine in the hospital and clinic settings, and with factory workers and in industrial settings. I worked as the athletic trainer for the Utah Jazz referees. I also have my 200 hr yoga teaching certification with Yoga Alliance.
I enjoy the outdoors: hiking, snowboarding, backpacking, and all things water. Sports have been apart of my life always. I hold a national record in the deadlift and also compete as a bikini athlete. I referee college basketball for the NCAA and have been a referee since I was 15 yrs old. I have a Colorado triple jump state record and jumped as a division I college athlete. I have two kids. We enjoy the outdoors together, attending their sporting events, and snuggling up for a movie on the couch. Their favorite restaurant is Black Bear Diner and they take me there for my birthday every year.
Nutritionist, ISSA Personal Trainer
Dave fell in love with nutrition and training when he was 15 years old, which eventually lead him down the road to bodybuilding. From the beginning he was captivated by training and nutrition and wanted to learn everything he could to maximize his progress as an athlete. For 13 years he spent his days learning as much as possible.
He’s now competed numerous times on the National stage and has placed in the top 10 of light heavyweight and heavyweight bodybuilding classes.
Always having had a good understanding of what to do in and out of the gym to be in shape, Dave has refined his coaching and experience as a trainer, Dave has worked with both lifestyle and competitive athletes for several years, and also enjoys in-person training clients. His true passion is bodybuilding and helping athletes reach their goals.
Dave is extremely health conscious in his approaches and methods and believes this goes hand in hand with bodybuilding – the healthier you are, the better your results, career and longevity are going to be.
Hey I’m Whitney! I’m born and raised in Utah and I have an undergraduate degree in anthropology, the study of peoples and culture.
While I love hitting the gym, some of my other hobbies include hiking, horseback riding, walking trails, skiing, and playing video games. During the warmer months of the year you’ll find me outside as much as possible.
Since my undergrad study pertains to all things human, I have a great understanding of the musculoskeletal system and how we work and move our bodies. I’ve used my knowledge to train and build a physique for bodybuilding, but also to be strong and healthy.
Take control of your health and start your journey to a better you.
Our team is ready to help you move better, feel stronger, and live healthier.
