Hello. My name is Joe Abadilla. I started StartLive.Fit. I am a NESTA-certified personal fitness trainer who is passionate about helping people to discover the amazing, healthy, happy person that lives within all of us. I do this because I’ve been through my own journey and faced challenges that went beyond weight loss or muscle gain or physical fitness.

Joe is simply an amazing personal trainer and a true gentleman. I’ve been working with Joe for over a year, and he has helped me gain stamina and strength while developing lean muscle.
Joe has many professional tips and tricks to overcome back, shoulder and arm injury which I’ve benefited the most. Joe has kept me motived to workout daily via the goal-based program in addition to live personal training. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a personal trainer.

So happy I met Joe at Startlivefit a few years ago, he’s been the driving force in my fitness journey. Awesome boutique studio with all the right equipment - you can workout either at the studio or at home.

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
I want to lose weight fast! If you want to keep it off, you don't want to lose weight fast. You want to lose weight in a gradual, safe, and more realistic way. By doing this, it will be easier for you to keep it off in the long term.
By educating clients how to develop attainable fitness goals, I am able to assist them in accomplishing their goals.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
It's not a secret! Everyone knows this. You have to move and eat the way you want your body to look. This is the most general way I can answer this. It all depends on your goal(s).
What do you love most about your job?
I love helping people! I love how my clients would text me like... "Joe, I can't believe I carried heavy slab of rocks from my car to the backyard by myself. It was like the farmers walk that we do during our sessions." I enjoy improving the daily lives of my clients by assisting them in becoming stronger and healthier.
What inspired you to start your own business?
In all honesty, I never set out to be a personal trainer and start my own business. I just wanted to change my own life. But then a friend told me that I should try to help other people transform themselves too. After all, I wasn’t the only one out there struggling. So, after a lot of research, I decided to go for it. I enrolled in the National Exercise & Sports Trainers Association Personal Fitness Trainer (NESTA -PFT) program. In August 2012, I passed the certification exam and became a certified personal fitness trainer. I immediately knew this was my calling. I became passionate about motivating and helping my clients reach their goals by teaching both the techniques that I learned professionally at NESTA and from my own personal experiences.

After 10 years, I'm still hard at it. I'm actually just about to finished Kinesiology/Exercise Science Degree at De Anza College (Cupertino, Ca) and at same time running my personal training business with full of enthusiastic clients. I love my clients. They are like family to me.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I used to do all of my personal training in person before Covid-19. Covid demonstrated to me that I can assist folks from all across the country. Since then, I've made the personal training online (zoom or in-app)  to make it more accessible. This allows me to assist others who don't live in my region or who do but don't have specific time to exercise due to their busy lives, while also providing a safer option. I recognize that everyone has their own background, ambitions, and desires, as well as their unique sets of limitations. As a result, we expanded StartLiveFit to help more individuals in more regions.
In-App Personal Training
If you prefer to work out at home and on your own, the In App plan is the way to go. Once you signed up you will have access to the fitness app for training on-demand, no matter where you are in the world. Perhaps you’re in the park during your lunch hour or on a tropical beach in the Bahamas – whatever you’re doing, I’ve created the ultimate hub to track your progress through photos, weigh-ins, measurements and quick chats with your personal trainer.
The In App plan is more than just a workout plan – it is specially designed to become your resource center for the best practices and techniques for your exercises, as well as a communications hub for speedy communication, so you can make the most out of every session.

Virtual Personal Training
Why go to the gym when the gym can come to you? During your virtual personal training sessions with me, you’ll embark on an engaging and effective workout that is completed from the comfort of your home – yet nothing short of exercise variations and full of real-time feedback. Like Anne here, she enjoys her workout in her own home and sometimes her office. She doesn’t have to drive to the gym and loves her privacy.
We can connect via:
Facetime
Zoom
Messenger
Skype
I understand that going to a physical gym can be a feat in itself – so why not save yourself the time and stress by finding a virtual personal trainer like me? Now committing to your goals is easier and more achievable than ever!

Hybrid Personal Training
The hybrid personal training approach combines online and in-person training to offer you the best of both worlds in terms of results. We will continue to meet in person on certain days and virtually on others.
During our hybrid sessions, I’ll give you with specific coaching and strategies to help you accomplish your fitness goals – whether you want to lose weight or develop muscle mass, your wish is my command! Get the attention, motivation, and results you deserve to boost your confidence and overall well-being.
