Aaron McDaniel – Personal Trainer in Las Vegas
Personal Trainer in Las Vegas – Hey! My name is Aaron, and this is my story: It all started in the year 2011 as I approached the end of my junior year of high school football. It was a Friday night. Eager to make a play on kickoff coverage, I ran down to tackle the returner, I knocked him out of bounds, we slammed into the ground then I quickly realized I couldn’t move my left leg. Luckily, I was on my team’s sideline. I suffered from what I thought at the time, was a major leg injury but turned out to be a simple quad contusion.
No problem, right?…I thought it was the end of the world, but it only took 3-4 weeks to heal. Therapy with my athletic trainers and coaches involved some of the most painful experiences of my life but I’m thankful for it. I ultimately made a full recovery and continued playing the sport that I loved.But let’s backtrack.I’m originally from Rockford, IL. Growing up, there wasn’t much to do but be outside, play sports and get into trouble. After getting into trouble with the law as a kid, it didn’t take long to realize that was a dead end. I can confidently say, choosing organized sports saved my life.Fast forward:Prior to receiving my bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology at Northern Illinois University and becoming a Certified Strength & Conditioning Coach, I worked in an automotive factory, in fast food, even dabbled in car wash management.
When I tell you nothing is more satisfying than helping others like the way my coaches and trainers helped me, I mean it. During undergrad, my favorite volunteer opportunity was the CATCH Program, a childhood obesity awareness and nutritional education program in Sycamore, Illinois. Also, being one of the leaders of the NIU Exercise Science Club was an amazing experience. It put everything into perspective and prepared me for coaching in the real world.
Once I graduated and relocated to Las Vegas, I worked as a physical therapy technician. I immediately knew I wanted to pursue a career working with athletes that may have gone through what I went through. The path I’ve chosen requires patience and resiliency. There are plenty of ups & downs and the work is never done, but I am blessed to be in a position to help others and I look forward to helping you on your path to greatness!
Adam Schindler – Fat Loss, Transformations and Fitness Longevity
Fat Loss, Transformations and Fitness Longevity – Hi, name is Adam and I specialize in fat loss, transformations, and fitness longevity. I have over 20 years of training experience. My personal training journey began in the United States Air Force back in 2003 as a PTL where I would design and facilitate group training workouts for my flight in the Cryptologic Systems Group on Lackland AFB.
Upon separation from the Air Force in 2008 I trained and competed in professional Mixed Martial Arts from 2008-2013 while facilitating strength and conditioning classes in the gyms I was part of, along with coaching specific arts such as wrestling for MMA, adult and children’s BJJ(GI and no Gi) and Muay Thai Kickboxing. In 2010 I spent 3 months training Muay Thai in Puket Thailand at Tiger Muay Thai completing the Advanced Level Training Course.
I retired from fighting in 2013 and coached MMA and grappling while finishing my Geography Degree at Texas State University. Upon graduation with my Bachelors of Science in Geography I took a job as an online nutrition and weight loss coach through an insurance provider and moved to Las Vegas. I coached online helping hundreds of clients achieve life changing weight loss through daily habits and lifestyle change from 2015-2019. In 2018 I began coaching group fitness once again in person and went back to full time in person training in 2019.
When the pandemic hit I created an online fitness program where I’ve helped over 100 clients change their lives through online workouts, nutrition coaching and daily accountability. I still facilitate this program to this day.
In 2022 I wanted to shift back into more in person training to create community and develop positive culture with my peers. I took a management position at a corporate gym in Las Vegas and built a great team but less than a year later I concluded that I am much more valuable as an independent trainer than I am managing other trainers careers, so I came back full time independent training her at Self Made Training Facility.
Now that I have just entered my 40’s in the best shape of my life, it is my goal to help every person that I work with to develop a lifestyle, a mindset and work ethic that will keep them strong, vibrant, and active for life. I want to extend not just the lifespan of every person I work with, but the health span of their life. My goal is to teach you how to be in the best shape of your life and the best version of yourself but it is also my goal to provide such an amazing atmosphere and experience that once you learn how to do it on your own, you’d still rather do it with me.
Give me a call or DM me on IG to set up a meeting and consultation.

Heather Hernandez – Boxing Trainer
NCSF Personal Trainer – My name is Heather Hernandez. I’m a boxing & fitness trainer, born & raised here in Las Vegas, Nevada. I grew up playing sports, basketball & softball and have always lived a very active, health conscious life. I went on to receive college scholarships in basketball, softball & track, where I studied psychology & exercise science while attending school in Oregon.
I then moved back home to Vegas after I was done with college. This was the first time in my life I had no sports to participate in, my mother had unexpectedly passed away my freshmen year in college and so, again, for the first time in my life I felt extremely lost with no direction or purpose. I started working at my local gym and was recruited to join a women’s tackle football league and started boxing. Although I loved both of these post college sports, and being apart of a team again, boxing is where I really excelled the most. I was a natural and boxing really became my outlet to channel all the anger & depression I was still feeling from my mom’s passing.
I got connected with an extremely high level coach who saw something in me and so he took me on. He was a national champion in Cuba, where he was from. He then came to America where he had a successful pro boxing career. He allowed me to join his team which was all guys, both amateur & professional. I was the only girl on the team but I held my own. I trained & conditioned with them six days a week for two hours a day throughout the years of my fighting career.
At one of my fights a USA National Boxing Coach saw me & recruited me to come and train at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs! This was one of the happiest moments of my boxing career but unfortunately about six weeks later I blew my knee out playing football, fully torn ALC which required surgery and a long road to rehab.
I had surgery and then returned to sport a bit too early, against my doctor’s recommendation but I was just so eager to get back to boxing and was also again being recruited for a Los Angeles women’s tackle football team. Due to returning back to my sports too early, I re-injured my newly operated on knee again and this time had to really sit my ass down for a while to properly recover.
This was about a two year process but through it all I really grew my passion for coaching and passing all of this knowledge & experience onto others, whether it be athletes, former athletes and also your regular every day people just looking to lead a healthier life style and become their most happy confident selves! It’s been a hell of a journey but I wake up every day feeling blessed and happy for the opportunity to teach and help people as much as I can with these gifts.

Joe Tavare – Personal Trainer in Las Vegas
Joe Tavare – Personal Trainer in Las Vegas –
A Fight Trainer, A Life Coach, A Transformation Mentor: Meet Joe TavareIn the vast landscape of personal development, Joe is a veteran in the fitness world, known for his exceptional ability to guide individuals towards transformation. A passionate fitness and self-development coach with over a decade of experience. He has trained a diverse array of individuals from professional fighters, professional athletes, military members, business executives, high school wrestlers, adults looking to lose weight, and kids development camps.
At heart, he feels he is just like many of you. Joe’s own life journey has been a testament to his resilience and determination. He faced challenges that would have broken most individuals. In the beginning he struggled with weight issues, tipping the scales at 326 lbs. Through dedication and perseverance, he transformed himself and eventually competed at a lean 155 lbs in mixed martial arts. In the peak of his fighting and fitness career, life threw him a curveball: a devastating car accident that severely damaged his L4 & L5 vertebrae left him without being able to walk. This setback could have ended his love for physical fitness, but instead, it pivoted his career. No longer set on just competing, he now dedicates his life to coaching and training others, helping them achieve their best selves both in person and online.
As an NPC Judge and a guru in the art of bodybuilding, he sculpted bodies to perfection. “I keep an all-natural approach focusing on calories, protein, hydration, and individually tailored workouts based on each individual’s needs.” The amount of focus and dedication to training for bodybuilding is very difficult and grueling but also very rewarding. Joe has found that many of his regular clients chose to try a show as a goal after they have trained with him for more than a year because of the results they have gained and never realized could be reached. He also has seen clients use the show as a way to try something new and conquer fear of being in front of others.
Joe’s expertise isn’t just limited to the fitness gym. He’s been honored to train fighters in strength & conditioning, rehabilitation, and fight strategy. Additionally, he’s worked on hand-to-hand combat and jiu-jitsu programs for the military and local police. He has developed approved exercise / stretching routines for office workers as well as provided private jiu-jitsu and self-improvement sessions for business executives in multiple major cities including Seattle, Austin, Tampa and Las Vegas. When it comes to safety, bodyguards and security teams come to him to learn risk mitigation, self-defense, and the art of de-escalation or what’s fondly known as ‘Verbal Judo.’ He’s even been honored to have taught self-defense seminars to police and first responders. One reason he is so versatile and sought after is his approach to training each person based on their unique body type and mental state. Whether it’s for group sessions or one on one, each program is handcrafted based on individual assessments and overall goals, making each a custom personal plan.
Beyond the physical, over the past seven years, He’s expanded his services to encompass self-development and has been referred to as a fixer. While health and fitness remain at the core, he works closely with clients on building self confidence, refining speech patterns, and enhancing body language. He focuses on transforming individuals into leaders, teaching them to command trust and respect from their peers as well as themselves. Together, he helps set goals, carve out milestones, and introduce systems of consequences and rewards, ensuring his clients are as mentally fit in their personal and professional lives as they are in their physical selves.
No matter where you are on your fitness or personal development journey, Joe is here to guide, support, and celebrate with you every step of the way. Let’s embark on this transformational journey together.

Raymond Barcenilla – Personal Trainer in Las Vegas
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 guy
