Shawn Perine was bitten by the bodybuilding bug after seeing the film “Pumping Iron” at the age of 11. He began training in his basement a year later and at 16 joined Mr. America’s Body Shop on Long Island, owned by former Mr. America Steve Michalik. In 1990 he promoted the NPC Diamond Cup Classic and launched Perine Publications, producing custom newsletters for gyms. In 2002 Shawn launched IronAge.us, a site dedicated to bodybuilding from the 50’s through the 80’s. That same year Shawn began freelancing for FLEX magazine and today he’s entering his sixth year as it’s Senior Writer.
