About DeVon
My background in sports, as well as the influence of my athletic parents, is what naturally drove me to fitness and working out. As a student/athlete I performed at a competitive level in basketball, football, wrestling, and track. I played D2 football at Kentucky State University. I studied business and exercise science. As an athlete, I saw individuals on YouTube who inspired and motivated me to pursue bodybuilding based workouts. I studied their training methods, and entered my first bodybuilding show about 3 years into that training approach. The training was based on body-sculpting and understanding the science behind it. This was a different training approach from what was used with football and other sports performance training.
In 2022, I earned my pro card in bodybuilding as a natural in the International Federation of Fitness & Bodybuilding (IFBB) competing in the Worldwide Ben Weider Natural Open Bodybuilding Championships. This was after I competed in my first bodybuilding show in 2019. COVID happened, and in 2021 I became #6 in the nation as a middle weight bodybuilder.
This November 2023, I was 3rd as a Pro Classic Physique at the Worldwide Ben Weider Natural Championships.
In 2020, I obtained Personal Trainer certification with specialization as a Bodybuilding Specialist with the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA). In 2022, I obtained certification as an Online Personal Trainer and was recertified with ISSA in 2023. I have trained individuals at varying levels of fitness and from all walks of life. I am passionate about personal training because of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. The positive outcomes of a healthy body and mind is our greatest asset. I’m committed to serving others and helping you reach your goals.
