About Me
My name is Shannon McMillan and I am the face behind McMillan Fit! I have been working in the fitness industry since I landed my first job out of college back in 2006. I hold a Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology from Indiana University and I am a certified personal trainer through ISSA. Over the 15+ years, I’ve trained hundreds of people working on their health and fitness goals, many of them who were just starting out for their first time. Over time, my passion for nutrition grew and I obtained my Master’s in Nutrition from Logan University in 2017. Doing so allowed me to help my clients tackle their diet and nutritional habits to get them looking and feeling their best.
If you see me in the gym, you’ll find me lifting weights with a little cardio sprinkled in. Strength training is my preferred method of exercise and it’s my passion to share that with others. I have competed in 9 figure competitions since 2012 with the most recent one being in April of 2024. Although the bodybuilding competitions can seem “hard core", I like to think I’m still levelheaded when coaching others.
Outside of the gym I like hanging with my husband and daughter, cooking, dancing, exploring new restaurants and doing the NYT crosswords and games every morning.
