Performance & Recovery, Elevated

AJ brings 8 years of personal training experience and 4 years specializing in assisted stretching, with a coaching style rooted in kinesiology, accountability, and results. Known for creating an environment that is both supportive and challenging, he helps clients build strength, improve movement, and build confidence. At just 26, he is opening his second gym, The Lab, built around a bigger vision of fitness—one that values recovery, mobility, and overall well-being just as much as performance. Driven by a passion for transformation, his goal is to help clients feel better, move better, and become stronger both physically and mentally.

At The Lab, Julio brings a personalized coaching approach focused on helping clients train with purpose, move better, and feel stronger in everyday life. He brings eight years of experience in physical therapy settings, along with over two years of hands-on mobility and assisted stretching experience from StretchLab. Through his work alongside Dr. Troxell, Julio has developed a strong understanding of pre-rehab, post-rehab, chronic injury considerations, and performance-based training. He has also worked with clients actively in physical therapy and higher-level athletes, helping bridge the gap between recovery and performance. His coaching style is built around strength, mobility, confidence, and consistency, with the belief that training should be simple, effective, and fit into a full, enjoyable lifestyle.
