Jesse Worden

• I grew up in Mammoth Lakes, CA. I attended college in Illinois where I met Grant and we became best friends as brothers in Christ. In my first 2 years I battled with injuries while paying football and through those experiences I developed a passion for fitness and coaching. Despite this new passion, I had one more year to complete my music performance degree. Instead of adding more years of schooling, I spent all my free time testing and developing my own programming, participating in Strength & Conditioning internships, and researching other aspects of fitness & nutrition. I now coach football and basketball at my high school and help other sports in Strength & Conditioning. While I'm not coaching sports I work with mybrothers in Christ to spread God's word through fitness.
