My name is John Shackleton.
In the training world I’m known as “Shack” or “Coach Shack.” I serve as the performance coach for the National Championship Villanova University Men’s Basketball Program.
I also consult with and train a diverse group of driven individual clients, including pro athletes, Olympians, professionals and weekend warriors.
For the past 20 years I have been immersed in fitness and human performance. I’m a fitness and nutrition enthusiast and I practice what I preach.
That’s how I roll.
Know that I have
an insatiable appetite
for knowledge and
an aversion to
complacency.
My goal is simple — be the best coach for my clients. If you’re satisfied with mediocrity, we’re probably not a good fit.
If you want to flourish and are unwilling to settle for anything short of being your best, let’s do it together.
