The Staff of Sword & Shield

Owner/Coach - Ross Fiegener, MS, CSCS, USAW-1, FRCms

My name is Ross Fiegener and I am the owner and founder of Sword & Shield Athletic Performance. Athletics was always a passion of mine growing up and I quickly realized the importance of strength and conditioning to help me achieve my athletic goals. After finishing my athletic career I knew I wanted to coach and help athletes have a phenomenal experience in their sport! Now having eight years of experience in strength and conditioning from high school, to Division 2, to Division 1, I can honestly say there is nothing more rewarding than helping athletes achieve feats that they did not think possible! Thank you for checking out Sword & Shield and I look forward to working with you in the future!
