Jeremy Likness received his Certification as Fitness Trainer through the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA). He followed this with certification as a Specialist in Performance Nutrition (SPN). Jeremy is a former obese couch potato who lost over 60 pounds of fat and was named a Top 2000 Finisher in the 2000 Body-for-LIFE(r) physique transformation competition.

Jeremy launched his personal training business nearly a decade ago after discovering how difficult and frustrating it can be to learn the proper way to shed fat and create the right habits to keep it off.

Jeremy is an internationally recognized author and freelance writer. His book and company Lose Fat, Not Faith is the result of his family's mission to empower individuals who wish to lose weight and improve their health with knowledge and internal, sustainable motivation to transform into the person they deserve to be. In addition to nutrition and exercise, Jeremy focuses on the mental changes necessary to create maintainable, healthy habits that support a positive, abundant lifestyle.
