“GCALFitness absolutely changed my life!

Although I’m hesitant to talk about my transformation, I think there are plenty of people (especially Moms!) that can relate to my story.

A year ago I decided to get out of my depression bubble I was in, and get back into fitness for myself. I had gained so much weight from surgery, depression, stress, and injuries- it was a very unhappy place.

It was hard to crawl out of that hole alone.

When I called Gabe and told him I needed help, he was so understanding and supportive. He made me feel like I wasn’t alone in my journey and explained to me how we would work together towards my goals.

Being a Mom means I have a difficult schedule at times but Gabe was always willing to work with me. I’m running around, but staying consistent to my workout routine helped me get to where I am today.

I still have a long way to go, but Gabe makes sure I’m on it, because there’s days where I don’t want to come in, but he convinces me to keep coming.

Thanks Gabe for making me laugh every session, telling me “I got this,” and letting me know I’ve come a long way and my journey is just beginning.” - Jean

“I have been training with Gabe for six months. I am blown away by his dedication to training. He is motivational and knowledgable and molds the workouts to your individual needs as opposed to one workout fits all. In the past I've been know to dodge my trainers and hated exercising. Since I started with Gabe I enjoy working out with him and on the days I'm not with him he gives me assignments which I follow religiously. I am a chronic neck and back sufferer but since I started working out with Gabe I have strengthened my core and I ultimately have less medical ailments. Gabe is a treasure and I'm so glad I get to train with the best!!!!”- Naz Khoi

“I started training with Gabe two years ago and he has completely transformed my way of thinking about health and fitness. He's not only taught me a variety of exercise and nutrition principles but he helped me form good everyday habits that have helped me live a healthier lifestyle. I have tried a few different exercise programs before but nothing has ever kept me as consistent while still constantly challenging me with training as with GCAL Fitness.“

“PHENOMENAL doesn't even cut it when describing Gabe's work. He takes great pride and teaches with such passion that you are left with an amazing experience unlike any other. I have gone through countless of Strength and Conditioning coaches and all of them lacked what Gabe brought to the table. As a fighter, he has really transformed my performance inside and outside the cage. Gabe is hands down the best personal trainer in the San Fernando Valley.”

Milton Arguello (Professional MMA Fighter)

“GCALFitness is a way of life now. As a Mixed Martial Artist/Fighter, I scoured through tons of places and gyms looking for a personal trainer to up my Strength and Conditioning. Gabe was where i stopped my search. Before him, I was lifting weights the wrong way and training my body incorrectly. I explained to him what it was that I did(MMA). In a second, he had a program set up for me that excelled my Body Conditioning and changed the way I currently train. After GCAL, my body is healthier, leaner, stronger, and my Martial Arts are beyond standards.”

Eliot Aguayo (Amateur MMA Fighter)

“When I started with Gabe my balance and strength was poor. I am an older woman and needed someone who knew how to deal with women my age. Jackpot! Although I complain often of aches and hard work, I go home feeling stronger and self powered to walk taller, walk further, get up easier, and catch falls and slips before they happen.

Sessions are pleasant with Gabe's humor and motivation.

Try him, you will see results and like him!”

Annette (elderly woman who kicks butt)

“I've been working with Gabe for the past couple months and I can confidently say his guidance and routines that I now use at the gym have helped me tremendously. One of my main concerns was doing exercises correctly to avoid injury and able to get the most out of a gym routine. His knowledge is absolutely superb, I learned so much about how my body and muscles function as we went through each exercise. I would highly recommend GCAL Fitness not only weight loss or athletic goals, but also having the knowledge and understanding of what you're doing when you're at the gym to get the most out of your workouts.”
