Meet Saul Rivera of Sr Elite Fitness

Today we’d like to introduce you to Saul Rivera.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Been lifting weights since the age of 12 never thought training people would become my profession. As and adult I worked as a mailman for the United States postal service made a decision at the time that ended my career, destroyed my marriage, and cost me two years of my life along with my freedom and memories with my children. This bad decision led me to prison and forced me to reevaluate my life and what I would be doing moving forward. Since I had a good physique, competed in bodybuilding I decided to train people so I can make money immediately out of prison with something I thought I could possibly do well. Immediately I started helping many individuals transform their physiques and I’ve been helping individuals transform their lives ever since.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Many ups and downs something self inflicted some situations inflicted by others. Living here in downtown is hard because despite you helping people with their health and bodies people don’t see training as a true profession or skillset. Figuring out you worth and earning what you deserve can be an obstacle. With that being said you will run into a lot of individuals with big egos and that isn’t always easy. Learning how to adapt to people and situations can be an initial struggle

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Im an in person trainer as well as an online coach former bodybuilder competitor who’s competed at the national level. When it comes to training I do it all. I’m a well rounded coach who can help with strength training, powerlifting, mobility, as well as rehab. I’m know for transforming women and helping them avoid getting plastic surgery. I’m also known for my workout intensity for myself and for my clients. What’s sets me apart from others is the speed I help my clients achieve results. What’s sets I am most proud of is the amount of people I helped transform physically but also mentally as well because everything you do in the gym is mental and the discipline you apply to your health and physique can be applied to other areas of your life. I want readers to know about my brand is that it promotes lifestyle change not only in the body, also in the mind, and spirit if they choose that route. As far as services you can get meal programming, training programs, as well as mindset coaching in person or online….

What are your plans for the future?
My plan is to continue building my brand and helping other individuals men and women who have made poor decisions like myself to be become the best versions of themselves. I would like to be able to train individuals who are trainers and coaches my training styles so I can provide jobs to them where they won’t have to look for clients themselves. Sometimes people just need a head start with help and guidance and I want to be that instrument that helps them.
