Mikes abilities extend beyond training athletes.

Corrective Exercise is one of Mike’s biggest passions. Working with those who have suffered injuries or have general mobility issues is something he takes very seriously.

Working from home meant we could vary snack and coffee breaks, change our desks or view, goof off, drink on the job, even spend the day in pajamas

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading source="post_title" font_container="tag:h1|font_size:18|text_align:center" use_theme_fonts="yes"][vc_column_text]Hello there!My name is Raymond Barcenilla you can call me Ray. Originally from New Jersey I moved here to Las Vegas 14 years ago. Im pretty much born and raised on the west coast but I still hold dear my east coast roots.I specialize in Weight loss, body transformation, marathon training, Spartan Race, Hyrox training, boxing and Kickboxing.One thing that I realized very early on, I had a strong passion to be a teacher in whatever it is I know. I loved to teach those who are willing to learn whether it be weight training, boxing, kickboxing, spartan race anything fitness related.Once I found out I can make a career teaching people that they are stronger than they realize, I went out and got certified to follow my dreams.I have been a personal trainer for 4 years full time and I truly love what I do. I took the full leap into personal training once I got furloughed from my full time job during the pandemic. I had very humble beginnings as a trainer. Training people with very minimal equipment in my garage, with masks on.I realized the enjoyment and fulfillment I received from helping people reach their goals is what I want to do with my life from then everything changed for me.My fitness journey started like many others journeys. I was a young kid who was bullied about my appearance, which lead to bad body image issues, honestly I still battle with these same issues. Which overall killed my self esteem so early as a kid.I found the gym at a young age of 13 years old, it absolutely altered my life from that point. It gave me the confidence and increased my self esteem. At 16 I found myself in my first boxing gym, and then my life took another turn. I have been a life long martial artist since that point, training in many disciplines, but the self confidence boxing and Muay Thai have given me, Truly saved my life.I now train in Endurance sport competitions such as marathons and a life long goal of doing an Iron Man.If you are looking for a trainer that understands life is hard, but you are stronger. A trainer that will help believe in you even when you dont believe in yourself. A trainer that will push you hard. That understands the fitness journey is not linear, it has bumps and bruises on the way.If you’re ready to train, committed to your goals.I am your guyShoot me a DM on Instagram @Ray.B.Fit[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
