from Unimpressed Podcast

Siavash Fashi is an entrepreneur, bodybuilder, CEO, and founder of SixPax Gym. Siavash overcame incredible adversity to become the successful entrepreneur he is today. He escaped his home country of Iran, where bodybuilding was illegal, to pursue his dream of becoming a bodybuilder in California. Now an expert in losing body fat and gaining muscle, he helps clients change their lifestyles, workout effectively, and achieve consistent, long-term results. With 25 years of bodybuilding experience, he has owned his gym and trained clients for over a decade and now teaches other trainers and entrepreneurs how to open a small but lucrative gym of their own.As a small, skinny kid, Siavash faced poverty, illness, and political turmoil. Growing up in war-torn Iran, Siavash found inspiration in bodybuilding, which was illegal in his country. After he was diagnosed with cancer in his right eye at 18, Siavash knew he had to escape Iran to pursue his dream of becoming a bodybuilder. He spent seven years as a refugee in England before finally making his way to the United States, only to be arrested upon arrival for using a fake passport. Siavash spent his first year in the US in a maximum-security federal prison, and when he was released, he was homeless. Despite these challenges, Siavash never gave up on his dream and started his gym with no money.Today, he is the CEO and founder of SixPax Gym in Culver City, California. Through hard work and determination, Siavash built SixPax Gym into America's most successful small gym with a system that catapulted him to millionaire status. But to Siavash, his success isn’t just about the money he’s earned; it’s about the lives he’s changed. He’s living the American dream now, but he never forgets where he came from and is passionate about paying it forward by helping others achieve their dreams.Using his step-by-step formula, Siavash demonstrates to other trainers how to build profitable SixPax gyms from nothing. He promotes small, community-minded gyms that focus on hands-on, intentional training to get results for clients. Siavash’s inspiring book Small Gym, Big Results is a testament to the power of determination and hard work. It provides aspiring gym owners and trainers a roadmap to build their dream fitness business.Winner of the NPC Gold Coast Overall Men’s Bodybuilding competition and Mr. California Master Class, Siavash holds a PFTA Master Trainer certification and a 2nd-degree black belt in Taekwondo. He’s living on the beaches of Los Angeles, where he enjoys his muscle car, his Harley, and hanging out with his dog Milo.Conversations That Challenge Reality Unimpressed Podcast offers a groundbreaking look into consciousness, ancient wisdom, and the nonconscious aspects of humanity via the Quantum Field.
