Scott Helvenston
Qualifications: Certified by ACE. Navy SEAL for 12 years. Navy SEAL instructor for 4 years.
Personal History: I joined the Navy at age 16 after a difficult childhood (my father died when I was 7 and I had lived in 37 different foster homes). At 19, I was the youngest candidate in my class to complete the SEAL training. I spent the next 8 years in Europe, South and Central America. Then, I returned to the US to teach at the Navy SEAL school. Note: as of March 2004, we are very sorry to report that Scott was killed while doing security work in Iraq.
Workout Philosophy: Fitness is a mental thing. Many people want to depend on outside entities to remain fit. My philosophy is different - my clients have to do the work. They must look within themselves for inspiration.
Sucess Story: My own. I guess it may seem kind of conceited, but I've got to believe in myself.
