Alberto Padilla
Founder + Strength Coach
Poliquin Level II Performance Specialist + Martial Artist
Growing up as a skinny kid in a rough neighborhood in Chicago, fitness became my escape and my path to becoming a better version of myself. It gave me direction, confidence, and purpose, motivation that still drives me today. I’ve spent years learning everything I can about strength and performance through training, competing, studying, and coaching. I pushed myself through six years of competitive boxing and over a decade of martial arts, earning multiple certifications along the way that reflect my dedication to this field. In 2015, when I became a certified sports performance specialist, everything clicked. My understanding of how to train the human body deepened, and so did my purpose: helping others reach their potential and rebuild confidence in themselves. Now, I use my experience to guide people toward their goals and show them they’re capable of far more than they ever thought possible.
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to training, as each person has unique needs and goals. Instead, I focus on identifying your weak points and creating a custom plan to build a solid foundation ensuring that you get the results you're looking for. My approach emphasizes the use of scientifically-proven techniques and methodologies to help you achieve optimal results. With my coaching, you can be confident that you are receiving the highest quality guidance and support in your fitness journey. When I’m not coaching clients, working on my business, or boxing, I love spending time with my 2 kids and exploring the beautiful Northwest with my family.
