Fitness Gods, hear my prayer! 🙏🏽
Turning 51 in a few weeks, so I had to test my favorite sequence—what I call the 😅Holy Trinity of Push-Ups:
One-Arm ➡️ Diamond ➡️ Plyo Clap.
Wasn’t sure I still had it… but I do.💪🏾
📣 Age is just a number!
🇺🇸🇩🇴 ¡Pa’lante siempre!

11 years sober today. Full of gratitude💟
🗣️I used to think my problem was a character flaw—that I was weak.
Then I broke the denial and learned: alcoholism is a progressive disease, not a moral failure.
✨Recovery networks, including the medical community, helped me learn how to live sober—one day at a time.
➡️ If I can do it, so can you.

🇺🇸🇩🇴The beginning of festivities in Malden, MA!

🇺🇸🇩🇴Today, there’s a Hispanic Heritage Month event here in Malden.
In neighboring cities like Everett, public celebrations have been canceled.
And that silence speaks volumes.
🗣️I feel anxious. Saddened. Frustrated that these emotions are even necessary—driven by policies rooted in racial profiling, harassment, and intimidation of immigrant communities.

✨What a great afternoon representing the Malden Chamber of Commerce alongside Fazel of American Linenmark! A huge thank you to the Lexington Chamber of Commerce and the Bedford Chamber of Commerce for co-hosting such an inspiring multi-chamber mixer.
It was wonderful to connect with so many leaders, members, and new faces from different communities. These events truly highlight the power of supporting small businesses across town lines.🎉
✨Right before Sparta Strength kicked off at the Malden Senior Center, Lucy—one of our rockstars—handed me a bag of fresh tomatoes from her garden 🍅. Grateful for the friendship, the community, and the everyday acts of care that make this space more than just a workout

🍋☀️👮🏽♂️Community Building
On my way home from a meeting today, I saw something that brightened my day. A young girl and her mom were selling lemonade, and a Malden Police Officer had pulled over to support them. Inspired by that simple act of community, I stopped too and grabbed a delicious $1 cup. That kind of presence builds trust and helps bridge gaps in our community.

📣 Rest is Rust. Motion is Lotion.
💪🏾My SPARTA Strength Class at the Malden Senior Center lives by this motto! Just look at these smiles. With ages from 65 to 97, we are a diverse community of all backgrounds and abilities. We don't just lift weights—we lift each other up.✨

Creative Equipment, Maximum Fun 😅
🎯Who says you need fancy equipment for a great workout? For my SPARTA Strength Class for Seniors (ages 65-97), I love getting creative with what's available.
➡️ This video shows how I repurpose everyday items to make movement accessible, challenging, and #fun. Watch the rockstars at the Milano Senior Center in Melrose take on a new #fitness challenge using just a beach ball and a hula hoop! ✨

📣Fun Fitness Fact:
Where does the fat actually go?💨
➡️ It’s one of the most common questions I get from long-term clients—and the answer surprises most people.
❌It doesn’t melt. You don’t sweat it out. And it’s definitely not torched by a magic supplement.
🎥 Check out this video to learn what really happens when you lose fat.

🔥Battle ropes—great for indoor or outdoor training. Low-cost gear, high impact. At Malden’s #Fitness Court, I walk through grip techniques and rope variations you can build on—whether you’re just getting started or leveling up.
At 50 years young, I know: strength is for everyone. 💯

🇻🇳Ngon quá! That's Vietnamese for "So delicious!" 😋
Today was a perfect example of the wonderful community we have at the Malden Senior Center! Before my strength class, one of our Vietnamese members surprised me with homemade spring rolls and sauce. So grateful for this surprise treat! ✨

💥Battle isolation with senior group fitness!
At the Milano Senior Center in #Melrose, MA, members ages 65–97 are proving that movement builds more than muscle—it builds belonging. This seated battle ropes circuit (side winders!) delivers more than physical power—it’s community in motion.💪🏾

1/🚨 Heat Wave Reminder: Check In, Speak Up, Save a Life☀️
After teaching my strength class at the Milano Senior Center in Melrose today, I was driving home when I noticed an older woman sitting alone on the curb. It didn’t feel right—especially in this dangerous heat. I turned around, flagged down a nearby police cruiser, and let the officer know I was an EMT-B and concerned.
We found she…

💪🏽50 years young and still pulling my weight—literally.
➡️ This isn’t about showing off.
It’s about showing up.
For my health.
For my community.
Para mi comunidad.✨
