Background
Finis L. Stribling IV is a seasoned personal trainer and supplementation coach with over a decade of experience in the fitness industry. His journey into fitness began in elementary school, but it was during high school that his passion truly ignited as he delved into the intricacies of training and nutrition for optimal performance and functional mobility.
A former Division I football athlete, Finis played as a defensive back for the University of Missouri Tigers. Throughout his collegiate career, he was recognized for his contributions on special teams and defense. His athletic background extends beyond football; at Independence High School in Thompson’s Station, Tennessee, he was a multi-sport athlete, earning accolades such as All-American, All-State, and Junior Olympian in track, as well as All-District honors in football.
In 2021, Finis founded IV Fitness, a platform dedicated to helping individuals achieve their fitness goals through personalized training and expert guidance. Recognizing the challenges many face in meeting their nutritional needs through diet alone, he launched Final Form Supplements in 2023. This venture aims to provide high-quality, transparently labeled supplements that are both effective and affordable, enhancing health and performance when combined with proper diet and exercise.
Beyond his professional endeavors, Finis is committed to education and mentorship. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. at the University of Texas at San Antonio, focusing his research on late-stage stellar evolution for low to intermediate-mass stars, maser emissions in circumstellar envelopes of asymptotic giant branch stars, and molecular dust in planetary nebulae.
In 2023, Finis authored “Undeniable,” a book that delves into his unwavering passion and discipline, charting his journey toward achieving his dreams.
As the Owner and CEO of IV Fitness and Final Form Supplements, Finis L. Stribling IV continues to inspire and guide others toward their health and fitness aspirations, embodying a commitment to excellence both in physical training and scientific research.
Why I Started
I founded IV Fitness in 2021 as a platform to help people achieve their fitness goals. Physical health has always been a priority for me, and I believe both physical and mental well-being are essential for longevity and a higher quality of life. To deepen my expertise, I earned certifications in personal training, workout design, and strength and conditioning. Combined with my experience as a tri-sport athlete and D1 football player, I have the knowledge and tools to help others reach their fitness goals.
In 2023, I launched Final Form Supplements to address a common challenge—getting all the necessary vitamins and nutrients from food alone. Supplements are a great way to fill nutritional gaps and support overall health and performance when paired with a proper diet and exercise routine. The supplement industry is filled with brands that lack transparency, use low-quality ingredients, or overcharge for their products. Finding a protein powder that tastes good without sacrificing quality is especially difficult. I created Final Form Supplements to change that—delivering high-quality formulas with honest labeling, great taste, and a fair price.
