Simon Shawcross (Simon[@]hituni.com) is the Founder and a Director of HITuni.com, the leading provider of online education in High Intensity Training and certification courses in HIT for personal trainers and those wanting to become personal trainers.

As a Master Personal Trainer himself, specialising in High Intensity Training, Simon has the wealth of sixteen years experience working in the field and he has personally supervised over 20,000 client workouts. Prior to entering the world of fitness and personal training, Simon achieved a BA Honours in Business Administration Management and Marketing Management at Oxford Brookes University.

As a public speaker and presenter on topics relating to peak mental and physical performance, Simon has helped organisations in the corporate world and individuals achieve their peak performance, wellbeing and health goals.

Simon's fascination with the impact that food has on the human body led to a continuing exploration of the field of nutrition as well as exercise resulting in Simon co-authoring nutrition book The ONE Diet. He was also the Fitness Editor of Reflective Image magazine and has written regular fitness columns for two local London newspapers. Simon’s current written work is regularly released online at HITuni.com/blog and through the HITuni courses.

While we do touch on exercise and nutrition, I deliberately focus on stress management, productivity, goal setting and business in this interview. Having met Simon several times, he is a focused entrepreneur who is successful at balancing fitness, stress management and a social life with massive creative output. This is not typical with most entrepreneurs that I have come to know, who grind day and night and, in most cases, pay little attention to long term health, a social life, or other creative pursuits, etc.
