Big Jon Buettner, M.S. Exercise Science

With over 20 years of experience in personal training and nutrition programming, I help individuals and athletes achieve measurable, sustainable results. My background includes working with general fitness clients, competitive athletes, and physique competitors, allowing me to bridge the gap between health, performance, and aesthetics. As a former college athlete, I understand the physical demands of sport and the critical role nutrition plays in optimizing performance, recovery, and long-term success.

For more than 15 years, I have specialized in contest preparation, guiding competitors from their first show through the IFBB Pro level. Contest prep is physically and mentally demanding, which is why my coaching extends beyond templates and shortcuts. With a Master’s degree in Exercise Science, completed doctoral coursework in Performance Psychology, and 12 years of personal competitive experience, my approach is strategic, individualized, and purpose-driven.

I specialize in nutrition and exercise programming for weight loss, physique transformation, muscle building, sports performance, and contest preparation. My goal is to provide a structured, efficient coaching experience that reduces uncertainty, supports consistency, and allows each client to show up confident, prepared, and performing at their highest level.
