My name is Lina Eadon, and I am a part of an amazing YDM Fitness team.
I grew up in Eastern Europe, a tiny country- Lithuania. I was involved with my school's Track Team, Volleyball, Cheerleading, and competitive Ballroom Dancing/Coach for 10 years throughout high school.
Even though I am a Civil/Environmental Engineer I have always been passionate about nutrition and sports. After becoming a mother to three amazing girls (twins + one) I put everything on hold and became a stay-at-home Mama. While I Iove my family and am grateful for my life I lost myself along the way.
Something needed to change and that’s how I stumbled into YDM fitness and started to train with Tommy over 2 years ago. I was hoping that he could build my strength back after I had a knee injury. Little did I know, that it would help me emotionally and give me the confidence back that I was missing. I fell in love with strength training, which led to competing in the Bikini Division and Bodybuilding. With Tommy’s leadership, I won my PRO card in 2019 and have been competing since.
The lifestyle I adopted reminded me of how healthy and confident I wanted to feel. I began to grow a bigger passion for helping people overcome the mental block of being lost by sharing my passion for nutrition, and exercise, teaching ways to stay consistent and break the YO-YO diets. LOVE the body you are in!
I have been personal training at YDM since the Fall of 2020 (education through ACE and Tommy's leadership) and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. To me, this is NOT just a JOB. It’s important to see someone go through the experience that makes them happy, confident, and strong!
Please note at this time I am only taking morning clients until 1:00 PM. Come and check us out!

Growing up in Madison Ohio I have always been active and just liked being on the go. I was involved in Track, Cross Country, and Basketball throughout high school, however, my passion was Baton Twirling. I twirled and coached on a competition baton twirling team and also competed as a soloist with USTA, United States Twirling Association, for 15 years.
After I graduated from high school I attended the University of Toledo. Coming from a sports background I was focused on Exercise Science, but I was 18 and wanted to be on MTV so I changed that. I graduated from UT receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Communication/Media Studies.
I was a retail Store Manager for many years and traveled often to support new store openings. Later in my career, I picked up some unhealthy habits that led to weight gain. I'm someone who is high speed all the time and I was starting to feel sluggish.
I found YDM and started training with Tommy in 2017. I originally signed up for a six-month membership, but then I never left. I forgot how much I missed the fitness community and that re-kindled the spark to make it a part of my lifestyle and future career.
It's a great feeling to adjust the pin on a machine when you can move more weight and I want to help motivate and coach others to feel and do the same. I received my Personal Training Certification in December 2020 through NASM and competed in my first Bikini Body Building shows in Fall 2021.

My name is Zack Underwood, I’m from Madison, Ohio. I’m an avid golfer and after high school I went on to play golf at Lakeland Community College. After my time there I became the Assistant golf coach for eight years. During that time, I got my certificate from the American Council of Exercise (ACE) and became a personal trainer at Anytime Fitness. I was at Anytime for seven years where I have helped many clients. I myself competed in two Men’s Physique Completions in 2014. I have also competed in several Powerlifting meets in the federations of USAPL and USPA. I was also a referee for WRPF powerlifting federation. In 2018 I graduated from Franklin University and received my bachelor’s in Accounting and Forensic Accounting and currently work for the Ohio Auditor of States Office. I’m excited to be apart of the YDM personal training staff and look forward to helping clients work towards their fitness goals.

Why hello there! My name is James Conrad Sheahan. I am from the good old city of mentor, Ohio. I attended lake catholic high school and continued my education at heidelberg university, where I majored in psychology. While attending lake catholic I played football and wrestling. At heidelberg university I played football there. After college, I came home and began training as a powerlifter at elite sports performance where I also became a personal trainer. I continued my career as a personal trainer becoming the head coach at home grown health and fitness. There I was the head coach for 5 years. Over my career I have trained athletes from the age 5-25 years old and also worked with males and females from 20 years-85 years old. I have worked with grade school to college athletes. I specialize in strength and conditioning. I have also worked many years doing 1 on 1 training as well as group training. I have run group sessions with as many as 70people. I also worked with high school teams training baseball, wrestling, football, hockey, golf, softballand soccer players as well as being a football coach at beachwood high school. While at home grown I became acsm certified. For the past 6 months I have been training out of ydm and I am finally ready to start accepting clients. Tommy has allowed me to grow my brand out of ydm and use the awesome facility. I have started my own brand called heart of fitness. I am excited to be able to be apart of this great gym and community. Tommy has been a great mentor in helping me get started. I hope to only continue to grow the ydm community as well as heart of fitness. I look forward to working with everyone
