National Academy of Sports Medicine Certified Personal Trainer 

Hi There! My name is Ashlyn Rodriguez. I am a dog mom of 2, and a mom of a beautiful baby boy!

I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Nutrition Coach, and Corrective Exercise Specialist through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. My passion for fitness and the amazing benefits that are a result of this lifestyle have driven me to pursue a career dedicated to helping others to be their best, healthiest and happiest selves. I am a firm believer that anyone can work to achieve their goals, whatever they may be, no matter what stage of life they are in. We are in control of our own destiny, and we can achieve anything that we set our minds to. 

I have not always had this passion for fitness. Growing up I was not active. I participated in some sports, but never really loved any of them. I was overweight and I was not living a healthy lifestyle. When I was 19, I became very sick. I lost a lot of weight, and I had very little quality of life. After 8 months of tests and being miserable, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. My whole life turned upside down, and I was made very aware of changes that needed to be made. 

I started with baby steps; going to the gym 3-5 days a week, but mainly doing cardio and bodyweight exercises. The gym was extremely intimidating and I didn't know how to do anything else, so I stuck to a corner and did what I knew. I went back and forth with the gym because I did not like running on a treadmill all the time and doing the same thing every day.

After some time, I met my husband, who went to the gym with me and introduced me to weight lifting. I was not immediately in love with it, but I did find myself not dreading the gym every day, and feeling better both mentally and physically. Eventually, it became something I looked forward to. It was my escape and my happy place.

I hired a personal trainer to push me further, and design a program that fit my goals and capabilities. I loved pushing myself in the gym and the entire process, just like you will too! It is the perfect escape to release any frustrations or harsh feelings and replace them with positive endorphins and feeling accomplished.

I hope to educate you and inspire you. I want to share this passion with you and help you become the best version of yourself. Let's take advantage of this beautiful life we live. Let me help show you what you are capable of. I promise you won't regret it. 

My Vision

We all have the capability to learn and to grow. We all have room for improvements and change. So why not make a change for the better? 

Lets work together on bettering ourselves. We all deserve more :)
