LISA SHEPHERD, LMT, CPT, PN, IHP
Hello! My name is Lisa Shepherd. I am a wife, mother of adult children, massage therapist, personal trainer, nutrition coach, integrative health practitioner, and IFBB Professional Figure Athlete.
My journey into health and fitness began long before I ever stepped onto a bodybuilding stage. Early in my career as a massage therapist, I became fascinated by the human body and how movement patterns, posture, muscle imbalances, and biomechanics affected what I felt on the massage table. I wanted to understand not only why people were experiencing pain and dysfunction, but also how to help them move and feel better long-term. That curiosity sparked a lifelong passion for studying the body and helping others improve their health.
Despite my growing knowledge, I was not always confident in a gym setting. In fact, when I first joined a gym, I felt intimidated and unsure of where to begin. Like many of my clients, I worried about whether I belonged there and lacked the confidence to navigate the equipment and training environment on my own. What started as a desire to improve my health soon became a journey of personal growth, education, and self-discovery.
Over time, I learned how to train effectively, fuel my body properly, and appreciate the incredible things the human body can accomplish when given the right support. My passion for fitness continued to grow, leading me to become a personal trainer, nutrition coach, and integrative health practitioner. Along the way, I discovered bodybuilding and embraced the challenge of pushing beyond my comfort zone.
Years later, that same intimidated gym member earned IFBB Professional Figure status—a goal that once seemed unimaginable. The experience taught me that lasting transformation is not about perfection or natural talent. It is about consistency, patience, education, and believing in yourself even when the path feels uncertain.
Today, I combine my background as a massage therapist, personal trainer, nutrition coach, integrative health practitioner, and competitive athlete to help clients achieve their own goals. Whether someone is looking to move without pain, improve their health, build strength, lose weight, gain confidence, or pursue competitive fitness, I understand that every journey begins with a single step.
My mission is to help people realize that they are capable of far more than they think. By providing education, support, accountability, and individualized coaching, I strive to help every client build a stronger body, a healthier lifestyle, and the confidence to pursue goals they once thought were out of reach.
BAILEE SHEPHERD, CPT
My name is Bailee Shepherd, and I am a 20-year-old personal trainer in the Powell area. Growing up in a blended family with nine siblings, fitness has always been a part of my life, largely influenced by my dad, a strong health figure. My active journey began with flag football, followed by gymnastics, and eventually lacrosse, which I played for ten years. After retiring from lacrosse, I found myself having ample free time. This lead me to discover my passion for working out. My dad played a crucial role in my fitness journey, guiding me through workouts and answering all my questions. This support helped me gain confidence in the gym and within my own body. I understand that not everyone has this kind of support, and I aim to provide that for my clients. I believe everyone deserves a knowledgeable and trustworthy partner in their fitness journey. My goal is to help you improve your health and feel comfortable in your own skin. I'm here to empower you every step of the way.
