Today we’d like to introduce you to Ramiro & Elidet Alvarado.
Ramiro & Elidet, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
7 Days before the birth of our first child, I was fired from my job. That was the day I decided I was never going to work for anyone else ever again. 19 Months later Abba Fitness was open for business.
I have consistently been training clients since the early 90’s and now seemed like the perfect time for me to never get fired again. Most people would have been paralyzed with FEAR of the uncertain. For my Champion wife and I, we knew that we were not living our full potential and this was just the right time to start living our destiny.
With my background in athletics and being trained by coaches that produced Olympians, National Champions, World Champions, and World Records, training others full time seemed so natural. Along with 30 plus year of personal experience and a Degree in Nutrition our program seemed to be a great fit for the community we serve.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Our obstacles came in the form of things that we could control. Like time management, improving our limited belief, and how we could grow as a person.
People see success like they see the tip of the iceberg and our business was no different. If you saw us now you would say “WOW opening a gym is easy”. We knew that we had no control over external circumstances. So, we focused our energy on the things that we could control and ultimately change.
The reality for us was for 6 years before opening the gym we were doing our boot camp outdoors year-round. At times, we had only had 3 clients. Overcoming limited beliefs about who we were as people and how we wanted to impact our community took time. It was a process but more importantly it meant we could not quit on our dreams or quit on the people who entered our lives.
Please tell us about Abba Fitness.
The secret to our program is that we guarantee positive results. We can validate this because it has taken over 30 years of my life to perfect. Sure, there will be some elements that you might find familiar. “There are only so many ways you can do a biceps curl”. What makes our program unique are the small details that takes years of discipline, practice, and patience to perfect.
We have created the perfect training program along with accountability for our clients. All they have to do is show up and do the work.
If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
If I could start over and change one thing I would suggest to myself and anyone that reading more in areas of personal development are the keys to long-term success.
