Meet Justin English, Owner and Head Trainer
Justin grew up in Ventura, California, and has always loved activities like surfing, swimming, and team sports such as baseball, soccer, and water polo. During high school, he went all in on surfing and water polo. He played water polo at the highest club and collegiate water polo levels. He traveled all over the world in search of perfect waves.
However, Justin's athletic journey faced a significant setback when he tore his labrum in his right shoulder during his collegiate water polo career. Too many years of improper technique in the gym, minimal focus on injury prevention, and endless hours in the pool finally caught up to him.
Justin's road to recovery was full of challenges. He experienced some loss in identity from no longer being able to surf, swim, or play water polo. He spent hundreds of hours in a physical therapist's office. He even took time off of school to rediscover his purpose. He soon discovered that his purpose was to help others prevent injury, correctly strength train, and grow their mental toughness.
He worked hard, returned to school, and captained his collegiate water polo team. Justin earned a B.S. in Sports Psychology, an M.S. in Exercise Science and Coaching, and the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist Certification (CSCS), along with other certifications in personal training, nutrition, and corrective exercise.
With this expertise, Justin began coaching elite athletes in swimming and water polo and eventually founded Unbroken Health and Fitness. Through Unbroken Health and Fitness, Justin has helped countless individuals on their journey toward health, fitness, and happiness. He has helped everyone from Olympians and Olympic Trial Swimmers to retired couples wanting to hike and dance as much as possible. His business focuses on helping young athletes learn proper strength training and injury prevention, as well as supporting adult athletes and clients in living healthier lifestyles and training for their sports.
