Ken Schafer

Throughout my life, I have been passionate about health and fitness. I started running at twelve and was a competitive and devoted runner in high school. After high school, I entered the U.S. Army and regularly achieved the maximum Army Physical Training test score. I left the Army to pursue a degree in Exercise Science. Then, I re-entered the military to work at the US Army Research Institute of Environmental Physiology and Medicine research facility. Despite my lifelong dedication to health and fitness, I experienced health problems in middle age. Through my journey, I have gained insight into the systemic problems that can prevent men (and women) from receiving adequate treatment for their health issues. I am passionate about promoting health and fitness and helping men navigate these challenges and achieve optimal health outcomes.
