Personal Statement
My interest in the health and fitness field began while I was in middle school.
I was first introduced to many different aspects of the health and fitness field as an athlete. I was a track and field athlete, baseball and volleyball player and was in the wrestling and Judo team in college. Health and fitness is a challenging field that would enable me to provide health to many people. Fitness is a crucial part of a well being, and I believe that I can make a significant contribution to this field.
Make a commitment so you can achieve your goals, your trainer wants you to succeed and accomplish your goals, provide them with the information they require and follow their advice. I like to train movements not muscles, I like to design programs based on clients needs and adapted to the activities that they perform. Training athletes and celebrities have give me an advantage because I have become a better trainer.
They have to perform at the highest level under pressure and look great because they are role models and public figures. I have surround myself with people that are positive, driven, confident and successful and I apply this way of thinking to my life and passed along to my clients .Also I have travel a lot visiting more than 30 countries and almost all the United states and this have help me to expand my horizons and learn different training methods from different places and cultures.

I can help you to achieve your goals and be succesful , life is a journey not a destination.
Fitness Motto, “Life is a challenge, nothing is impossible, you can achieve anything you want, as long as you put your mind and heart into it and never give up”.
