INSIGHT
Jon Jung has been a true athlete all of his life. Before he was able to walk, at the age of 2 years old, his mother Elaine put him on his first pair of skis. Since that first day, Jon has always been conquering every mountain, hill, and challenge that has come his way.

Graduating at the top of his class from Sacred Heart Cathedral College Preparatory of San Francisco, senior class president and national Coca-Cola Scholar, Jon received an academic scholarship as well as an invitation to run Division I Track and Field at the University of California, Irvine. At Sacred Heart, Jon competed at the varsity levels in Cross Country, Basketball, and Track and Field.

Graduating from the University of California, Irvine in 2004, Jon immediately knew that the path of fitness and health was the direction for his future. In October of 2004, Jon began his journey to the JUNGLE. Recognized by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (N.A.S.M.), Jon is nationally certified as a professional personal fitness trainer and an optimum sports performance trainer. He is also recognized by Apex Fitness as a certified personal trainer and nutritional coach. In addition to being a personal trainer, Jon is also CPR and First Aid Certified through the American Red Cross.

In 2006, Jon has competed in four regional bodybuilding competitions where all four of them he placed top 5 in his class receiving trophies and recognition as well as invitations to compete at the national level. Some of the competitions he competed in were: Orange County Muscle Classic XXIX (3rd runner-up), Contra Costa Bodybuilding Championships (4th runner-up), GNC California State Bodybuilding Championships (1st runner-up), GNC Excalibur Bodybuilding Championships (2nd runner-up). Also in 2006, Jon competed in two pageants, a fitness modeling pageant (Mr. Fitness USA 2006) and an ethnic modeling pageant (Mr. South Asia 2006). Jon was crowned 2nd runner-up as Mr. South Asia as well as being crowned Mr. South Asia America 2007. He has been televised on ESPN, ESPN International, Sahara One Television and featured in many fitness magazines and newspapers such as the Orange County Register, San Francisco Chronicle, and India West.

“Success is inevitable without quitting.” This quote inspires Jon’s life as he strives to live by it everyday.
