Michael Scullin
Hey everyone, I’m Michael. I’m a founder of Palmetto Pump House, as well as the Powerlifting coach of PPH, and owner of Charleston Powerlifting Club. I’ve been strength training in some capacity for over 18 years, whether it be for football, wrestling, or powerlifting.
As an athlete, I’ve played sports most of my life, achieving all-state honors for both football and wrestling as well as national accolades in wrestling. I also played football for the University of Georgia for the 2013-2015 seasons and wrestled on the club wrestling team. After college, I started training very seriously for powerlifting and haven’t looked back.
As a powerlifting coach, I’ve has guided over 100 athletes, from the ages of 14 to 70, to achieve their goals. With my experience and knowledge, I’ve helped my athletes earn 5 500+ Dots, 10 450+ Dots performances, 7 open and junior world records, 8 masters world records, and well over 60 state records.
Palmetto Pump House was a dream that formed as soon as I had met Jason and Teddy soon came along. We knew we had to create a gym that everyone could train in and we wanted to create the most vibrant and best training environment possible. The rest is history.
Please feel free to approach me in the gym at any point for help or just to introduce yourself. I love helping and getting to know people!
Theodore Tat
Hello everyone, my name is Teddy. I’ve spent a large majority of my life trying to find somewhere to fit in. Thankfully I walked into Gold’s Gym Clemson in 2002 and I found what I was looking for. I was able to find a sense of self confidence, community and a place I can really express myself. The gym is more than a building with weights and equipment. It’s a sanctuary, a place where we are all equal and can work on improving our health, physical fitness, push ourselves to the limit and form once in a lifetime relationships with people most of us would have never met otherwise. When Michael and Jason approached me with their vision of PPH I knew it was something really special and unique.
When I first started, I dabbled in bodybuilding but really found my passion in powerlifting. I started working full time as the patient advocate with Premier Hormone Health at the beginning of 2022 when I was at a low point in my life. It gave me a platform from which I have been able to help every day people struggling with low testosterone as well as guiding individuals, who wish to enhance their performance, to avoid the mistakes and pitfalls that I myself fell into when I first started supplementing testosterone.
If you see me around, please come say hi and introduce yourself! Welcome to your home away from home.

Hi! I’m Dr. Maysa Hannawi and I am a Physical Therapist and Strength Coach.
I grew up overseas in Dubai as a long-distance runner and soccer player with little exposure to strength training. I moved to the US for college, where I became a competitive ultimate frisbee player. After a major knee injury and getting taken off the field for a year, I found the barbell -and I never looked back! I love functional fitness and weightlifting and believe everyone can (and should) build a strong and resilient body.
