My name is DJ Melgar from Long Island, NY. I am currently a collegiate Division 1 Strength and Conditioning Coach at Hofstra University. In my time developing as a coach, I haveworked with sports including lacrosse, wrestling, baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis, volleyball, and golf.

I currently hold certifications as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), CSCCa Strength and Conditioning Coach Certified (SCCC), and a Certified Sports Nutritionist Certification (CISSN).

I grew up constantly in and around sports. I mainly focused on playing baseball as well as basketball, football, and wrestling. Most recently I have focused on powerlifting competing in the USAPL. I also enjoy performing Olympic lifts with some body building style workouts on alternative days to keep things fresh. Shifted is a staple supplement line in my training routine as their products help me perform during training sessions but most importantly recover from one session to the next.
