IFBB PRO
DR. MARK "THE SHARK"

ATHLETE

I'm Dr. Mark "The Shark" Smith and I am a father, professor, author and IFBB Pro bodybuilder. In high school I was a power lifter that eventually got inspired to try bodybuilding from watching "Pumping Iron". I did terrible in my first bodybuilding competition taking last in my teen and open divisions and I almost quit doing the sport entirely. My tenacity and dedication forced me to keep trying as I admired 4x Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler and dreamed of making it to the IFBB. All through my educational career and journey where I finished a BS in Business Management, MBA, MSL and Ed.D. in Organizational Leadership I never stopped competing trying to earn my IFBB pro card. Now, after years of perseverance and consistently working hard I'm now a tenured professor and program chair at University of Advancing Technology and a IFBB professional bodybuilder. Storm Labs and I teaming up is a no brainer with their quality products and passion for the fitness industry. Their supplements are top notch and use no fillers or bogus ingredients. Storm Labs products an essential part of any fitness enthusiast’s arsenal, trust me, I’m a doctor.

YANA ANDREEA

ATHLETE

Hi! I’m Yana Andreea - figure bodybuilder, personal trainer, and lifestyle coach. From the time I started competitive gymnastics as a young child, I became obsessed with exploring the full potential of the human body. Through sports, I developed a deep passion for pursuing the greatest version of myself - physically, mentally, and spiritually. However, it wasn’t until my mother was diagnosed with a chronic illness over ten years ago that I discovered the sport of bodybuilding. I began training as my way of encouraging my mother during her battle with cancer, letting her know that she wasn’t alone in her fight for strength. At the time, I had no idea that this one act of love would lead me to become Miss Tennessee, competing in the Olympia, and helping thousands of other women uncover their true strength. Now, I’m on a mission to become the best version of myself that I possibly can, using my journey to guide others along the path to confidence, energy, and elite physical & mental health. I believe that bodybuilding gives each of us the gift of rewriting our own story - the ability to take something challenging and turn it into something beautiful, the opportunity to develop ourselves into something greater than we ever thought we could be… All we have to do, is grab the pen.

CARLYN KENNEDY

ATHLETE

Hi! My name is Carlyn Kennedy. I was born and raised here in Las Vegas, Nevada.
I was a dancer since the age of 3, until I suffered from a major back injury at the age of 15. This injury affected me for about 3 1/2 years. During that time I went with my mom to her Bodybuilding competitions (she is a figure competitor) and I was introduced to the world of bodybuilding.
At the age of 18 I decided I wanted to take training to the next level and compete. In March 2020, At 19 years old, I did my first NPC Bikini competition where I took home a 1st and 2 3rd place medals. I fell in love with the sport and knew this is what I wanted to do. In October 2020, I competed two more times taking home a 1st and 4th place at both shows.

My goal is to become an IFBB Bikini Pro and to show/inspire others who have gone through similar injuries or situations that it does not need take over your life, to always have faith, and that it is still possible to go after your dreams. I am so excited to join Storm Labs as they only put the best into their products. Not only are all of the ingredients on the label so I know exactly what I’m putting into my body...they taste great too!
