Jorge Ruiz

I arrived to the US 11 years ago and have always had a passion for fitness.  During my youth, I struggled with weight issues and was confused about how to achieve and maintain a healthy lifestyle.  Coming from a family who has been continually fighting obesity and diabetes was when I decided to empower others and help them have a clear concept about fitness.  My personal and academic experience helped me to clarify and define practical answers to this confusion, in addition to honing in on my mission as a personal trainer: to work with each client to develop a unique program that balances physical activity and nutrition while effectively monitoring his / her progress and goals.

I am competent in all aspects of fitness and wellness, to include strength training, machines, and movement while applying basic training principles and business skills.  Upon completion of my first certification in 2009, I have worked with several types of clients including special populations, i.e., people with diabetes, depression, and anxiety.
