KAYLA ALVES
Athlete
Kayla Alves, also known as "Killa Kayla" because of her supersets, has had a relationship with fitness for as long as she could remember. Her journey began in her high school career as a tiny but mighty defender. When she graduated, she decided to focus on lifting consistently in the gym until May of 2019, when she showcased her strength in her first ever power lifting competition.
Squatting double her body weight served not only as a huge accomplishment but added fuel to her fire to continue her journey in competing in her second competition, but this time as a bodybuilder.
After encountering a minor setback when she injured her rotator cuff, she recovered and came back stronger than ever to focus on personal training and gaining her nickname from her clients.
When she is not coaching clients or sweating her ass off working out, you can catch her stuffing her face with all the delish food that she can grab in sight. She is also a huge Friends and The office fanatic, so be prepared for many references and countless corny jokes when you’re with her.

GABI MARTES
Athlete
​
Gabi has been surrounded by the athletic lifestyle since her parents put her in soccer at the age of 5. Her passion grew throughout high school and into college ball. Off season weightlifting and in season conditioning was an everyday routine. 5am mile runs for breakfast, speed tests, weights for lunch and an ice bath for dinner as she would explain it! Training hard for what she wanted was a never ending cycle.
This eventually lead her to achieve the opportunity to play all over Europe.
While finishing up the season in London, her family opened up their very own gym in New Jersey. Continuing her training from the off season, she veered into a pathway to teach others how to become faster, stronger, and more powerful. From the help of her mentor (stepfather) Mike Medrano, former MMA fighter & current celebrity personal trainer, brought Gabi under his wing to understand what it takes to run a gym and personally train clients.
Gabi still to this day continues to personally train others to be the best version of themselves. Competition has always been in her blood and to be able to bring that same drive out in her clients is all she could ask for. “You have the power to choose what kind of life you want to live, I’m just here to guide you through it!”

The scary part is, this is only the beginning.
