Jesse Garling,
Fitness Director

As a teenager Jesse got his first job at a car dealer in East LA.  He was assigned to picking up the front ends of cars that needed work so that the dealer could repair his lift system.

He likes cats, hates salesmen, but finds himself to be quite the charismatic.

He needs advice concerning HIS diet!!!!!

Please DO NOT bring red Kryptonite to your training sessions.  We cannot be held responsible, especially for the Honduran Red.

Everybody loves him because Jesse parks his ego outside the gym (in either his Monster Truck/black Mercedes/ candy apple red ‘Vette’ or Vintage Harley) depending on frame of mind.

He doesn’t like people but does believe he can “fix” them.

We are all afraid of him; when he came in to interview for the first time he missed the door and walked thru a brick wall.  That was good enough for me.  The hell with people skills!

His painting work is mainly in oils with an occasional acrylic.  Do Not Bring up WATERCOLORS while on our premises.

Seriously, the guy has the most serious commitment to his craft and to his clients/our members that we have ever seen.  He listens intensely and matches his training style and delivery to the methods that you have found successful for yourself in other areas of your life.

Steve Rising,
Senior Partner

After failing to make the cut in a walk on bid for the Jamaican Bobsled team at age 57, Steve figured it was time to finally move out of his parent's home, complete his dual associates degrees in Quantum Physics and Golf Course Maintenance and give up the rigors of academic life after 36 years at Community College.

His part time career as artistic and dance consultant for the Crazy Horse (a major Cleveland exotic dance organization) had somehow become stale and he needed a new challenge. The only obvious path for a man of his talents was an Anytime Fitness Club Franchise.

He has lost 330 lbs, meditates for between 16 and 18 hours a day, and has found true peace in our little fitness business. You will generally see him sitting in the "stance of the locust" somewhere around the open exercise and warm up area. Feel free to break his trance or even play a little joke by moving him to a different part of the gym.  When he wakes up you can listen to him tell everyone he has levitated.

So long as his medication is taken consistently, he is a great guy to have around!
