My name is Luca, I have been working in Gravity Fitness for over a year now. I am a certified personal trainer (NSCA-CPT) and lead coach at Gravity Fitness. I am also currently studying CSCS (NSCA). In the near future I want to obtain a degree in sport science. I also have a bachelor’s in aerospace engineering.
I wanted to change my career and I decided to enter the field of health and fitness since I have always been passionate about sports. I have played basketball since I was a kid but I am fascinated by every kind of sport. This interest in the performance and health aspects of physical activity is what drives me to pursue a career in this field.
I am looking forward to working with you and helping you obtain the same benefits I did with physical activity and more.
