George's Story
Besides owning and operating his own personal training studio; Worldâs Best Trainer, Inc. located at 1 Tuxedo Dr. Melville, NY 11747, with indoor and outdoor (boot camp) training. George is certified and an instructor for The Academy of Applied Personal Training Education (A.A.P.T.E.) accredited through Hofstra University. What better way for George to reach a vast majority of clients with his training methods than to be a trainer of trainers. Georgeâs other certifications include: I.S.S.A., A.C.E., A.F.P.A. (nutrition consultant), Post-Rehabilitative Exercise Programming, and Strength Coaching Theory by Charles Poliquin. George is also the author of two books published as one by The Nautilus Group: Part 1 is titled âBowflexerciseâ. A 12-week program designed and developed exclusively for The Nautilus Group, Inc. (owners of Bowflex, Stairmaster, Schwinn Fitness). Part 2 is called âThe Turning Pointâ, his award winning 12-week exercise and nutrition process that transformed his wife Carmela into a fitness model at the age of 46 and won George the Grand Championship of the Met-Rx Worldâs Best Personal Trainer Contest. This world wide contest was for personal trainers only. They had to choose one of their clients and create and document a nutrition and exercise program that would dramatically change their body and health. Each trainer had at least 12-weeks and up to one year to complete the transformation. Well, George chose his wife Carmela who never exercised in her life. He completed her transformation in 12-weeks, was the first (out of thousands worldwide) to submit the results, and went on to win the Grand Championship. Dr. Scott Connelly, owner of Met-Rx at the time, was so impressed with the results he featured both George and Carmela in Met-Rx advertisements months before...Expand for more
the contest was over. As a result of Carmelaâs success, she has teamed up with her husband, became a nutritional consultant, and develops healthy recipes and meal plans for Georgeâs clients and her own.
George has appeared on television (one shows news anchor doing the interview was so impressed, she became a client), infomercial (for Bowflex), radio, and his articles have been posted on numerous health-related websites, and in major bodybuilding publications. One of them is Jeff Eversonâs Planet Muscle magazine, who George has been writing for since 2002 and was the magazines Associate Editor in 2008/09.
Georgeâs clientâs range from bodybuilders to housewives, eighty-year-old grandmothers, television personalities and multiple sclerosis patients to the New York Golden Gloves Heavyweight Boxing Champion. While his clients vary, his training protocols are the same for all. George tries to make it clear that there is a difference between high-level competitive bodybuilding and bodybuilding for improved health and well being. âContests last for a moment, health and fitness should last a lifetimeâ. George feels your three main goals should be:
Enhanced Health
Self â Esteem
Discipline
He makes sure each client reaches these goals by enhancing their quality of life, acting as a concerned teacher training a valued individual, and applying and sharing, wisdom, knowledge and understanding.
George says, âBodybuilding, which incorporates regular resistance training and a responsible nutritional regimen, as a discipline or lifestyle is probably one of the healthiest and most therapeutic things any person could ever participate in. A very positive attitude toward the way you look leads you to have more positive feelings about every other aspect of your life.â
