Jason's Story
“Success is what happens when motivation and hard work meet ambition."
Jason Ste. Marie works full-time as the Provincial Sales Representative in the province of Alberta for Advantage Health Matters and part-time as a nutritionist, personal trainer and a health coach. He is a Natural Bodybuilding Champion in the WNSO/Fame, World Natural Bodybuilding Federation and is a Registered Massage Therapist.
Jason has a BSc. in Human Science from AU, holds a Food and Nutrition Management diploma from S.A.I.T, and studied Physical Education-Fitness Leadership and Business Administration at Mount Royal College. He is a certified strength and conditioning coach through the AFLCA.
In 2003, Jason competed in his first Natural Bodybuilding competition at the Toronto Nationals and won 1st place in his Novice Men’s class beating all 15 athletes weighing 170 lbs and under. Being the lightest athlete in the contest, he weighed only 134 lbs and was under 4 % body fat. He also placed 2nd in Canada in at the Nationals a the lightweight class which is 155 lbs and under, being over 20 lbs lighter than all 15 men.
Jason then travelled to Redondo Beach, California and competed in the Bantamweight class, 144 lbs and under in the World Natural Bodybuilding’s Musclemania event. Weighing in at 131 lbs and under 3 % body fat naturally, Jason place 2nd in the World in the bantamweight class. He is currently training to compete in 2006 in the World’s again and plans to win his class, either bantamweight or lightweight and overalls winning him a Pro Card.
Building muscle naturally obviously takes discipline, motivation, hard work and the proper ratios of nutrition and protein intake. To build enough muscle naturally Jason needs to consume a lot of protein, but it is not always convenient to get it from whole food sources six times per day. Jason does not believe in using whey or soy protein powders that are processed, taken through high levels of heat or are full of sugars and empty carbohydrates. He uses only Manitoba Harvest Hemp Protein Powder twice a day until it its time for his dieting prior to competition. He loves the taste and eats it straight out of the bottle or mixes into in a shake. “It is the best tasting and freshest Hemp Protein Powder available on the market today.”
