After 20 years away from Sherwood Park, DJ Baum decided to return with a bang. “I’ve been self-employed since 2000,” DJ says. “I used to own The Backdraught Pub and while working there, I got into bodybuilding. I started working as a personal trainer in 2007 and decided I wanted to get away from the unhealthier aspects of the pub industry.”
While drinking and deep-fried foods may be tolerable in small amounts, they can eventually take a negative toll your health. DJ moved to the other side of the spectrum and decided to help people become healthier. “I wanted to follow my passion in the fitness industry,” DJ says. “I did my research and found that Sherwood Park was underserviced in the supplement industry, so I opened the first Xtremeline there in 2009.”
