BodySpace Spokesmodel: Sean Harley Dreams Do Come True
Below is an interview I did with the extremely talented and IFBB Pro Men’s Physique competitor Sean Harley about becoming a Bodybuilding.com BodySpace Spokesmodel. Enjoy!
Can you give us some background information about yourself and a quick bio on who exactly Sean Harley is?
Sean Harley: I actually grew up playing sports and working as a farm hand in a rural area in Nebraska. Eventually, I went on to play college football, first as a running back and then as a fullback as I was learning how to lift to put on some size. After graduating cum laude with a double major in business management and marketing, I moved out to San Diego and started working in the nutritional supplement business.

During my first year out there I was asked to be in some fitness magazines and my modeling career began. The drive from San Diego to Hollywood started to become more and more frequent so eventually, I made the move to LA. I worked full time as a fitness and commercial model as well as some acting in some soap operas and music videos. Eventually, my path leads me back to Omaha where I opened a gym, the online training website www.ithinkfit.com, and started a small supplement company called Rock Solid Nutrition. Now I run my business and still travel around the country on modeling assignments.
What drew you to the Bodybuilding.com website?
Sean Harley: The low prices! When I was in the supplement retail business, we couldn’t compete with the low prices offered on Bodybuilding.com. So after selling my business, I became a bodybuilding.com customer myself!

Sean Harley: I’ve been buying supplements there for years and I got hooked on Bodyspace about 2 years ago.
