Lisandra Cuadrado

After graduating Indiana University in 2003, I moved to Miami, Florida to start my career in the fitness industry.  I started off at 24 Hour Fitness as a Personal Trainer, moving up to an Elite Trainer.  I then moved to Orlando, Florida in 2006 to pursue an opportunity with the Orlando Magic basketball Facility.  At RDV Sportsplex I was an exercise physiologist and focused on post rehab clientele along with creating a fun filled kickboxing class for the members.  After, two years in Orlando, Florida, I was contacted by 24 Hour Fitness and was asked if I would like to help Grand Open a new club as their Fitness Manager.  I started back with them in 2008 and stayed there until 2012.  I then decided to move back closer to my hometown and begin a position with Lifetime Fitness where I then realized I wanted to get more into corporate fitness and management with the opportunity to still teach and train.  I then switched my career focus to where I am at now at LifeStart Wellness.  I have always been passionate about fitness and have competed in 4 full marathons and a few half marathons as well.  I have played many different sports throughout my career and continue to find new innovative ways to keep myself active and excited about this industry.
