I've lost 64 pounds to date working with Big Al and couldn't be more thrilled! He's as dedicated to my success as I am. I've never had this level of support with my health and fitness goals. He's diligent and detail oriented and created a workout plan that challenged me but also respected my limitations.
As a veteran in the fitness industry I have been helping, motivating and inspiring people to increase their health, performance and/or quality of life for over 26 years.
As a graduate of the Military Sports Academy and being certified through the International Alliance of Professional Athletes Trainers, NSCA and NCCPT, I have been working with a broad variety of individuals from professional athletes over weight loss candidates all the way to severe medical post rehab.

Sports and fitness have been my pathway to health and opportunity since I was a teenager in Africa, my passport to professional sports in Europe and bodybuilding. Being a fitness trainer allows me to share my expertise and experience with others seeking to improve their health and enjoyment of life through a healthier lifestyle.
I started my career in personal training 8 years ago when I was adopted from the Adopt-a-Bull foundation. I have successfully retrieved many toys, and believe that exercise and training is just as important for dogs as it is for our owners. My daily responsibilities include welcoming guests, ensuring visitor safety, and demonstrating how reducing stress can lead to a happy, healthy life.
For most people beginning an exercise program can be stressful. My goal is to take the stress out of it and provide you with the motivation and tools you need to live a stronger, healthier and more energetic life. Anybody, given the proper guidance, motivation and support, can reach their goals! I couldn't ask for a better career.

My goal was to lose enough weight for surgery and Al made sure to help me not only meet those goals but excel them. Ive currently lose 63 pounds! Everyone Ive met here has been helpful and encouraging. Cleanliness is super important especially during COVID times but rest assured cleaning is taken very seriously. After coming here I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I came to Al The Motivator to get help with my Achilles, arthritic knee and lower back pain and to get back into shape. I have Only been coming here for a few weeks, so far, and I am noticing a difference. He is a great personal trainer and it is fun working out in this very clean and well equipped gym.

I was looking for a gym with a friendly atmosphere and personalized training routine to help me avoid the dreaded effects of aging. The Motivator has been perfect for me. I've improved physically and enjoyed many laughs. Big Al and Oscar oversee everything and work very hard to see that each client's needs are met and that the environment is comfortable. My trainer, Lance, is the best!! And yes, the gym is very clean.

If you were like me and avoiding going to the gym The Motivator really lives up to it's name. When you go in for the first time you will immediately notice how clean the gym is and be greeted by a friendly staff. Al really listens to what you need and works to help you hit your goals. The other great thing about this gym is that all the staff and clients make it an easy going atmosphere with no judgements. Al’s knowledge really shows as he customizes your workouts so you leave feeling like you hit your maximum potential during each session but without risk of injury. So if you are procrastinating

I started going this gym to get some motivation! Everyone in the gym is awesome. They’re super friendly and personable. The gym is always immaculate and very well maintained. I look forward to my workouts now. I have issues with my neck and soreness in my shoulder. Al has introduced me to a technique to help with these issues and I have never felt better. After massage therapy, chiropractor visits and physical therapy, nothing ever helped. I’ve been going to this gym since May and feel the best I ever have. The trainers make you feel like family and the dynamic is more than comfortable. Ill

I have worked with "The Motivator" for 4+ years and have been very happy with my results. He always stresses proper form to prevent injuries and quickly measures my limits to maximize workouts. Plus he has provided great nutritional advice that has helped my metabolism.
The trainers on The Motivator Team are quite possibly the best and most respected in Tucson and they have great, well maintained equipment that is very well organized. The whole group keeps their clients quite motivated! The atmosphere is awesome and the gym is incredibly clean!
