My name is Jesse Velasquez and I’m far from an overnight success. I am a person who has been highly involved in athletics and writing my whole life. 16 years ago, I was an overweight and unmotivated individual with a substance abuse issue. After realizing that I was headed down a path of destruction and nearly dropped out of college: I weighed in at 220 pounds, I turned to healthier tactics and self educated myself on the science of nutrition and fitness.
I dropped 60 pounds in 10 months with hard work, dedication and education. I’ve been a bastion of fitness and nutrition knowledge for my family and friends ever since. In spite of obtaining a degree in Journalism and Communication, my passion has always been fitness. With gentle nudges from family, friends and many gym staff members, I decided to make a career switch in 2014 and become a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach. What came next is without a doubt the greatest transition of my life.
I’ve coached hundreds of client’s to obtain goals from fitting in a Wedding dress to training for The Boston Marathon. I’ve worked with entrepreneurs, stay at home mother’s, business professional’s, Starbucks Barista’s, nurses, lawyers, human resource director’s, Book writer’s and doctors. I’ve helped transform client’s view of their health and wellness, assisting people to lose anywhere from 15-40 pounds, drop body fat and gain pounds of lean muscle but most importantly: ensure a longer and healthier quality of life.
My goal is to be THE best possible coach for ANYONE who WANTS to change their life. I serve first and foremost, to assist and empower YOU to leading the lifestyle YOU deserve. Whether it’s the goal of “Looking good for your significant other” or “seeing your abs” to “Lowering your cholesterol” or “helping get rid of your diabetes medication”: I WANT to ensure your success just as much as you do.
