Strength and performance
About Mastodon
Madison has always been driven by one question: why.
Why systems work, why they fail, and how the human body adapts under stress. Science was never just an interest, it was the lens through which he understood the world.
Strength training entered his life early and quickly became more than a hobby. Madison treated the gym as a testing ground, pairing hands-on training with constant study. That curiosity led him to pursue advanced education in biomechanics, earn multiple high-level certifications, and trained alongside some of the best minds in the strength world.
He built a successful career as an engineer, applying precision and problem-solving at the highest level. When the pandemic hit, it forced a reset. Watching systems fail in real time reminded him that resilience is not theoretical. It is built through health, strength, and discipline.
Madison walked away from engineering and committed fully to Mastodon Strong.
For over six years, he has helped people transform their lives through intelligent training, bodybuilding, and powerlifting. His work goes beyond aesthetics or numbers on a bar. He helps clients move pain free, rebuild confidence, and fix issues others could not by addressing training, lifestyle, and long-term health as one system.
Madison holds both a Bachelor of Science and Master of Science in biomechanics and maintains elite industry certifications, including J3 University Level 1, Kabuki Movement System Coach, Poundstone Performance Coach, NASM Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Sports Performance Specialist.
Mastodon Strong was built on a simple mission: combine science, strategy, and strength to help people become more resilient, capable, and confident in their bodies for life.
