Introduction: Hi I’m Victoria and I have a passion for fitness and nutrition. I currently am NASM certified trainer. A major event happened in my life which was during 2014. 1 was 14 years old and I was in school when all of a sudden my dad called me and said that my mom has cancer . I froze In the moment and felt my heart sink and I just couldn’t believe it. From that day on I needed to keep myself up and do whatever It takes to make my mom happy. I saw my mom one day working out to a video and I was hooked and started to try these workout videos myself. It was one of the main things keeping me up during the worst times of my life. Exercising was a way of clearing my mind and pushing myself to be stronger and faster. It was a way to remind me who I am. I proved to myself my discipline and dedication. l wouldn’t let the fear of losing my mom take over my mind and bring me down. Thankfully to this day my mom beat cancer and I’m happy to have her by my side motivating me to go after my goals. After high school I was set to becoming a nurse and got accepted into a nursing program. There was a project in my nursing course which was to help an elderly person in my community. The goal was to help elderly people move more efficiently and eat healthier by creating an exercise and nutrition plan. These dreams and goals helped me truly realize my passion towards fitness, which completely changed my path. I want to help others stop the root cause of their medical issues before they become serious and by creating a nutrition and exercise plan this can become a reality. Being able to change a persons life, inspiring them to thrive, live a healthy and happy life, is something I find that makes me love what I do. Cooking has become a passion of mine and I love to create meal preps for people with the hopes that they can understand that food is fuel not only for body but mind and soul. When starting to eat healthy and cutting out unnecessary foods, I felt I took control of my life and am able to feel energized for my workouts and see the results I am after. My goal as a trainer is to help those who want to prove themselves too. Whether it’s to be stronger mentally and physically or to change their mindset to live a healthier life, the journey won’t be easy as you will be challenged. In the end it really comes down to how much effort, dedication, consistency, and discipline you are willing put into something.
