Andrew Salcido – Muscle Growth and Fat Loss Coach
Muscle Growth and Fat Loss Coach – I have trained with clients of various ages from 12 to 70 years old. I work a lot with people who are trying to fluctuate up and down in weight/ people who want to build muscle or lose body fat. I have also worked with clients who have had problems such a Parkinson’s disease and diabetes so if you’re case is a bit tough to deal with then let me know and we will figure something out for you whether it’s with diet or exercise.
If you are looking for someone who does NOT bullshit you with what is possible then I am your guy. I will be 100% honest with you with everything because this is the best route to reach your goals. I’m the kind of trainer who gives homework and expects picture proof that you’re doing the things I have told you in order to succeed. I do this to keep you accountable. You can’t lie to me if you have picture and times of all your work 💪🏽 lastly I am always available through text or call and I will get back to you as soon as possible if you have any questions so you can learn as we go through the process together.
I would say my number 1 motto would be to always be a doer! Don’t ever procrastinate on anything. If you have a workout to do, a meal to eat, sleep to get, or a task to complete then do it when you’re supposed to. Don’t say tomorrow or Monday, just get it done right away. You will find yourself getting more things done in general instead of forgetting about them and waiting until it’s too late. This motto will help you in not only fitness but it will straight up change your life for the better as you will find yourself being 1000x more productive.

NASM Certified Personal Trainer in Costa Mesa, CA
In high school I started my passion in weight lifting and it eventually evolved into competing in the sport of bodybuilding. I was mentored by many recognized Olympian coaches and started my career as a personal trainer later down the road. I wanted to help people and transfer what I was taught through my battles of gaining muscle, losing fat and creating a powerful mindset to conquer everything above fitness.
My career started at Golds Gym Long Beach and became the number 1 ranked trainer in the nation. Created many transformations with long lasting relationships that I still have to this day.
10 years later I became an independent trainer with a name for myself and am having the privilege of working with celebrity clients. I’m now at a private facility I like to call home, aka Self Made Training Facility of Costa Mesa.
Craig Mahle – ACSM Certified Trainer in Costa Mesa
Hi my name is Craig Mahle, I’ve grown up around and within sports all my life, from an early age focusing on baseball, basketball and football and slowly grew out of them and found myself years later unhappy with the way I felt and looked.
It was then, 9 years ago when I decided to hire a personal trainer and get myself back. it was him that truly changed my life to what it is now. He always preached work ethic, discipline and to live your life on your terms and do something you love to do. I ended up training about 2 years with him lost about 30 lbs and then we decided to shift our efforts and train for a men’s physique show. In the process of that i was able to not only get in the best shape of my life but, also i was as strong as I’ve ever been mentally . It was from that moment on I found my passion in being able to help others in the way he helped me. I would find myself at the gym and people would ask me for tips on what to do, what I ate, what my training regiment was or how to do certain movements and I found it very fulfilling to be able to help others.
It’s been about 7 years since then and i continue to do what i love day in and day out, not only transforming peoples body but also their minds and making health and fitness a lifestyle.
I truly believe it starts from within and it transcends to all other aspects of your life “if you feel good , look good, do good”
NASM Certified Personal Trainer in Orange County, California
Glayol Kashani – Weight Loss maintenance, Habit Coaching –
Glayol, a UCLA alumna and certified personal trainer, brings over 1,500 clients’ worth of experience to her practice. Specializing in flexible nutrition plans, lifestyle transformations, and behavior change, she’s dedicated to helping clients achieve lasting results. With certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine and ongoing mentorship from physical therapists, Glayol offers evidence-based guidance to empower individuals to take charge of their health. Say goodbye to crash diets and hello to sustainable habits with Glayol’s personalized approach. Whether you’re aiming for weight loss, muscle gain, or injury rehab, she’s here to guide you every step of the way no matter your skill level and get you life long results. Ready to transform your health? Glayol is ready to help you succeed.
I’ve lost 20 lbs in under 5 months, while training with Glayol. I won’t lie & say it’s been easy, but it’s definitely been worth it. G has always kept it real since the beginning. She’s very understanding, but will also let it be known if you’re not following directions. As long as you put in the work & follow her recommendations, you’ll see the results.
I’ve had a few struggles throughout this journey, but Glayol has always been very helpful. She takes the time to explain things in detail, & makes sure that you really understand what she’s saying.
When I signed up for training my main priority at the time was just losing weight. I didn’t know anything about counting macros, nor strength training, & lifting, but I’ve grown to love it. Although I still want to drop some body fat, I’m more interested in building muscle now. My overall eating habits have also improved so much since I started training. I’ve learned how to track calories/macros & how to prioritize protein. Fueling my body with food, has also made it possible to lift heavier & hit PRs.
Glayol always listens to my concerns & has never dismissed any of my problems or pains that I’ve encountered while training. I started having knee problems recently & have had some rough days due to it, but Glayol immediately found substitutions for certain movements that were causing irritation & assigned excercises to help with strengthing
Overall I’m extremely happy with Glayol’s services, & recommend training with her!”
Glayol is hands down the best trainer I’ve ever had! She’s tailored my workouts specifically to meet my short term goals (looking reasonable in my bathing suit in two months) and taking into account my pre-existing knee injury (torn meniscus). There’s something magical about her training method because I have yet to feel pain in my knee after a workout nor does my body feel overly sore from the workouts. In fact, my knee seems stronger. Glayol is fun to workout with and an excellent listener and motivator who pushes me beyond my own perceived weight lifting boundaries. Hiring Glayol is the best investment I have made in myself. I highly recommend Glayol and look forward to getting back in shape with her as my trainer.

Josh Sanchez – NESTA Personal Trainer
My name is Josh and I’m 35 years young 😉 I’ve been weight lifting for over 20 years and have gone through quite the fitness/life journey. In short, I was skinny growing up and was made fun of, but then grew into a man that no one would ever make fun of now. I now help others gain that same POWER with their body and mind. I’ve been sponsored, on a magazine cover, and have been in incredible shape that most won’t ever achieve….but then I lost it all. I was in a car accident that completely flipped my life upside down. I fractured my L5 in multiple places, severe lateral recess narrowing with likely impingement of my L5 nerve root, left sub particular disc extrusion, and a 7mm hole causing havoc on my nerves to name the main issues. I couldn’t walk for 2 months, had to learn had to walk with my left leg again, and then crutch everywhere for 6-7 more months. I lost myself for awhile during that time but all those challenges help me be a better man, coach, and father today. That accident was over 4 years ago and I would never change a thing. I can’t back squat or deadlift ever again, or lift as heavy as I want, but I’m alive and able to walk again and do what I love. Training others helps me get a piece of that life back by seeing others achieve things daily, weekly, and yearly that they never thought they could. Fitness is a platform you can use to reach people who may need that added strength outside the gym. Happy to help others make GAINZ in body and mind!
Lindsay Schneider – Personal Trainer
Personal Trainer – My name is Lindsay Schneider and I am a certified National Academy of Sports Medicine Personal Trainer. With over a decades worth of experience in the gym, it is my goal to guide and support you through your own personal transformation, inside and out! I personally got into weightlifting over 13 years ago, originally serving as a mental outlet to deal with the many stressors of life, it is now a large part of my life and has shaped me into the woman I am today. Consistent exercise through weightlifting has instilled great discipline in myself, is incredibly empowering and has brought calming mental clarity with every workout.Physical exercise has been proven to be a powerful tool for personal development. Any tension, dissatisfaction or anxiety felt in the body is just energy- energy that what we want to release by literally moving it through the body via exercise. Personally I find that weight lifting is thee absolute best modality to release this energy, as it increases mental focus and clarity (internal) while actually building and sculpting your physique (external)I truly believe that a commitment to routine exercise is one of the fundamental building blocks to a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle.It can quite literally transform your internal and external state.I want nothing more that to see my clients transform bodies and achieve there goals, even goals they may have thought are out of reach, while working with me.I teach my clients proper weight lifting form, techniques and tempo, resulting in increased confidence in the gym and every day life.My area of focus when working with clients is weight lifting and I specialize in lower body strength, power and hypertrophy with an emphasis on glute development.I strive to teach my clients mind to body connection, so ultimately they are able to understand and intuitively know what their body wants and needs.With patience consistency and hard work, I am here to guide you to achieve and exceed your goals.

Rory Buttelmann – Personal Trainer in Costa Mesa
Personal Trainer in Costa Mesa – Personal trainer and nutritionist with 20 years of experience. I have worked alongside some of the top athletes, and body builders in the world. I specialize in transforming people using nutrition, cardio programs, and weight lifting to transform your body. I like to think of it as a pie chart split into three sections. You need all three working together to reach your goal. They all play an important part in your transformation process. You can rest assured if you can follow one of my plans I can drastically change any body, at any age, or any fitness level from beginner to an advanced lifter who’s stuck in a plateau. I teach mental toughness, discipline, dedication, consistency, and I teach people how to stop making excuses and how to make time. I hear all the time people don’t have time. I teach people simple things like how to reset your clock, get to bed earlier, get more rest, wake up earlier, go to the gym before the sun is up, and get home before your kids are awake, and workout on your lunch breaks. This lifestyle is fun and rewarding but it’s also about sacrifice and working while others are sleeping, taking breaks and watching tv. We can all make excuses or we can take action and create time in our lives for what our goals and desires are, and achieve them. I teach people to not put limitations on themselves and go after your goal with everything you got, and you never know how far it will take you. I specialize in nutrition and teach people how to speed up their metabolism, and take advantage of everything you can to burn fat and build muscle with precise and expert nutrition, cardio, and advanced workout techniques. I will not have you dieting, I will have you adding more food just like you would add more wood to a fire to make it burn bigger and bigger. I use a mixture of clean and healthy eating as well as refeed days or as some call them cheat days, which will in turn make your fire burn even bigger and set your metabolism on fire! You will be burning fat and building muscle at a rapid and consistent pace. I teach people how to work smarter not harder. I will also teach you how to work hard and bring your workouts to another level! I push people with encouragement and passion and I’m proud to say I’m more passionate about my clients than most of them are about themselves and their goals. I heavily invest myself into each and every client and get enjoyment out of watching their success. My goal with each client is to teach them all my knowledge so that one day they can do it on their own, and they can pass the knowledge onto others the same way it was passed on to me by my father, who was a bodybuilder and won Mr. Texas, and the many friends and mentors of mine who were bodybuilders, olympians, pro athletes, and coaches who were all kind enough to pass the knowledge onto me. I always tell people those who are humble enough to learn from others can receive great knowledge, and in turn continue to pass the torch and spread the knowledge. All the greats are just passing along information from one to another. I know what it’s like to fight back from injuries. I know what it’s like to be a busy parent. I know what it’s like to not have the best genetics and fight hard for everything I have. I know what it’s like to give up your vices to reach your goals and make sacrifices. I can help any client in any situation achieve their goals. As a personal trainer and nutritionist, I will give you more than just a workout. I have been blessed to help so many clients from busy parents, teenagers, young adults, beginners, intermediate gym goers, gym rats that have been stuck in a plateau, athletes, body builders, and just your everyday client who wants to feel better and look better. I offer coaching for anything and everything in between to help you achieve your goals, no matter what they are. I pride myself on my customer support, quality service, and my genuine care and passion for each client with an individual customized approach!
Become your best self with my custom-tailored training and nutrition programs. Whether you want to lose weight, gain muscle, or just live a healthier lifestyle, I have the knowledge, expertise, and experience to help you achieve your goals. Sign up with me today and let’s get started on your fitness journey!
