Our Story: How we started a health and fitness company
Our founder, Kenny Sheafer, initially delved into the realms of fitness and nutrition during his high school wrestling days; driven by a desire to enhance his wrestling performance and facilitate weight management. However, a pivotal moment occurred when his father was diagnosed with cancer, marking a profound shift in Kenny's perspective. It transformed his focus from merely excelling in wrestling/sport to prioritizing overall health and well-being.
In 2015, Kenny became a certified personal trainer and successfully operated his own small training business. With friendship and mentoring from industry greats like Mike Dolce, Kenny knew he could do more. He quickly became aware that there was a huge gap between nutrition and fitness that wasn’t being filled. This gap became consistently more evident the more time he spent as a Dolce Diet Coach and working with clients all across the country. Ultimately, Kenny decided it was time to do MORE.
After completing his undergraduate studies in human nutrition and dietetics, he joined the Graduate Program of Nutrition with the United States Army and Baylor University. Kenny spent 2 years working on his master’s degree and (now) published research, all while completing his extensive didactic internship.
For the last several years, Kenny has focused his time on training tactical athletes, combat athletes, and the everyday person. While he still loves sports performance, his real passion is in helping others achieve their optimal health and wellness through dedicated nutrition and fitness coaching. With over a decade of experience in the health and fitness industry, Kenny has learned what works and is ready to lead you to your goals.
