#35: Shawn Powers - The Silver Wolf Returns

On episode 35 of WELCOME TO THE WINNERS CIRCLE, Derek Pang interviews the master of transformation Shawn Powers who returns for his second appearance on WTTWC to discuss optimizing the New Year and starting 2021 strong! From his beginning in fitness as a professional body builder turned DJ at the famed Studio 54 in New York City, to an obese 30-something casino manager in Las Vegas, the original Silver Wolf is now a role model fitness coach, experienced Muay Thai fighter, business owner, father and husband in his 50s with countless fitness certifications and programs to his name, as well as an education in Nutrititional Sciences. He has most recently started Bonefrog Athletics, which is a free group on Facebook for those interested in the betterment of themselves through fitness. Here are some of the subjects we touched on: - The impact of losing many friends and family in 2020 due to COVID-19 Coronavirus, and how losing so many people close to him gave him a new perspective of what‘s important in life. - The passing of his father and how his dad’s death affected him. - What he’s learnt about New Year’s resolutions; everything from setting them, maintaining and sustaining these goals. - His continuing evolution on this planet. - Advice he would give to people who say they “don’t have enough time” to create lasting change in their lives. - Discussion regarding how he helps his clients with the most common New Year’s resolution goal of wanting to lose weight. - How to achieve one’s goal of wanting to put on muscle in the New Year. - The importance of diet in relation to one’s health goals and overall well-being. - How to attain size and strength goals without having to lift heavy weights. - The difference between motivated and unmotivated people, and how he coaches unmotivated clients. - The incredible transformational success story of one of his client. - How to take your physical training to the next level without a coach. - Why world travel is so important to him. - A discussion of his daily routines, including his nighttime wind-down routine. - Detailed description of the supplements he takes. - Creating Bonefrog Athletics and his goal with the group. - Great parting words of wisdom as we enter a New Year.
