Shaunna Marie

Shaunna Marie is a National NPC Bikini Athlete, certified personal trainer and online fitness coach from USA.

Shaunna has risen through the ranks in the fitness industry, proving to everyone what can be achieved with hard work, dedication, and a healthy approach to fitness. However, she didn’t always have this self belief.

In 2013, Shaunna was in-and-out of the doctors numerous times for a whole variety of health problems. The doctors advised Shaunna to take multiple medications, and to stop all exercise.

However, Shaunna decided to go in the opposite direction – she joined a gym and worked through her illnesses. By doing so, Shaunna became fitter, stronger, and learned how to heal her body on her own. Since the beginning of her journey, she’s learnt how a good diet and exercise can change a persons life.

“The gym became my ‘therapy.’ During this time I realized the harder I worked, the better I felt. Getting through an intense workout numbed the physical pain I was in and made me feel strong.”

“Specialists told me that I needed medication to stop stomach spasms, I needed to reduce physical activity, and holding a career would be near impossible for me. I did what most people probably wouldn’t do – I took the exact opposite approach and vowed to beat what I was faced with by making my body strong, and my mind even stronger.”

“Fitness ‘saved my life’ – and for that reason I am extremely passionate about it. The physical progress is amazing, but the best part about it is the mental strength that you gain.”

Training

Shaunna has gone form a ‘skinny girl’ to one of the best NPC Bikini Models from USA. She’s achieved this by spending hours in the gym each week perfecting her physique.

Some of the exercises she like to focus on are squats, lunges, glute kickbacks, and the sumo deadlift for her lower body.

She also makes sure to work her upper body, using the lat pull down to create a wider back, and the shoulder press to help sculpt her famous v-taper physique.

As Shaunna has the body type of an ectomorph, she doesn’t need to do much cardio, but when she does, she’ll mix it up between HIIT, and the occasional steady state cardio session.
