In Order to SHARPEN Others we must Sharpen OURSELVES.

Any coach can tell you what to do — point, direct, bark orders.

Throughout high school, he remained in the best shape among his peers, which pushed him to the next level in college, where he trained and competed with other talented athletes. As far as his work & ambition, Jamal was second to none! His work in the weight room and desire to stay conditioned & dominant always made him stand out.

As Jamal's ambition grew, so did his interest in training. He admired how college strength and conditioning coaches crafted programs to help the team excel. These areas captivated him most. Jamal often asked trainers questions or closely observed their methods.

While remaining in shape to play football, he had the pleasure of training with some of America's best speed and conditioning coaches. These coaches played at the highest level and shared the knowledge necessary for his success. He was also blessed with a brother who played in the NFL and provided valuable insight and attention to detail.

With being in such a blessed position to be around skilled individuals, Jamal was able to take in a lot of information and incorporate it into his own work ethic and programming.

He got certified, found his own path, and built his own knowledge in the fitness world. Nutrition. Recovery. Boxing. Muay Thai. So many layers — broken into simply by changing locations, moving to California, and engaging with new activities and new perspectives.

From the start, Jamal has experienced ongoing learning and engagement in fitness — mastering new skills himself and then teaching them to others in his unique style.
