Full Bio
Victor, a native of the New York City suburbs, joined the fitness industry later in life than most. He became a personal trainer in May 2018 at the age of 46 after 25 years in sports journalism and added his fitness nutrition specialist certification a few months later. His passion for fitness emerged shortly after his youngest son was born in July 2010. Victor weighed nearly 250 pounds at the time, and he realized a need to find a healthier lifestyle in order to fully enjoy life with his newborn son and family. With the help of a personal trainer, Victor lost nearly 70 pounds over the next year and a half. Fitness and health have become a lifestyle choice ever since.
Victor wants to help his clients achieve their personal dreams of health and well-being like his past trainer helped him, through well-structured and safe programs to make progress, reach goals, and build confidence—step by step.
