    I have never ever felt so uncomfortable around someone as I did him. I started in 2019 shortly…read morebefore he was caught. A couple of ladies I worked with went to him & strongly encouraged me to join with them. So I did. From the day I started, I knew there was something not right with him. I knew deep down I did not want to be alone with him. Like I said before, I felt so uncomfortable around him. I hated when there were exercises when your bum would be in air, because he was always walking behind me.... Creep!! After class, I complain about him to husband & he told me to quit going. I told no, I spent too much $$ not to go. After 4 weeks in, he was arrested. I then knew my intuition was spot on about him. Now he's getting his in prison!!

    I was a member of his gym in 2014. In that time he gave me the nickname "Earthquake" and would…read moreshout it out during classes and I was very insecure about it. His clients were mostly women and he insisted that we wear gloves (which I have never been asked to do, even in crossfit) and told me it wasn't for us, it was for our husbands. Thinking back I realize how creepy it was that he wanted our hands to be callous free "for our husbands". Shawn dated his clients and frequently caused jealously amongst them during class. It was extremely uncomfortable. He inevitably married a client which ended in a nasty divorce. I just couldn't handle the drama. It was a very dark experience for me. He knows NOTHING about heath or nutrition, and blames his lack of fitness & health on everything and anyone else but himself.  I recently gave my opinion online that he is "the worst trainer I have ever had" and some female (presumably a client he is dating) posted a private message from me to Shawn thanking him for my renewed confidence. That was 2014 & before I saw what was going on around me. Shawn & this female "Alicia" continued bashing me on this particular thread.  I have had many trainers and different gyms, all of them reputable and had something I could learn from. Shawn Bell is just a toxic narcissist on a power trip taking advantage of vulnerable girls. Stay away.
