About Rafael
Hi there! I’m Rafael Hernandez, and I’m proud to be part of the 10 Fitness team, a place I truly believe is the best gym in the area. My journey in fitness and nutrition began five years ago, and since then, I've become a certified Nutrition and Fitness Coach through ISSA.
What drew me to 10 Fitness originally was the quality of the facilities and the community here—it’s simply the best, and I always strive to offer the best to my clients. Professionally, I'm known for my ability to connect with people, motivate them towards their goals, and inspire personal growth.
My passion lies in interacting with individuals and assisting them on their journey to a healthier life. Seeing the transformation in someone's life as they improve their health, self-esteem, and overall lifestyle is incredibly rewarding. I excel at providing new perspectives on health challenges, crafting practical strategies that are more than just quick fixes. My clients appreciate the personalized encouragement and continuous support that help them achieve sustainable changes.
When I’m not at the gym or coaching clients, you can find me indulging in outdoor activities, hitting the books, or studying at home. I’m deeply committed to personal growth and continuous learning, which drives everything I do.
Originally from Honduras, I’ve had the opportunity to live and work in various countries including South America, Spain, and now the United States. I came here seeking to better myself and take advantage of the numerous opportunities available for personal and professional development.
Volunteering is also a significant part of my life. I regularly volunteer as a medical and educational interpreter, and I'm passionate about providing nutritional education to the community through free digital resources.
A quirky fact about me? I'm quite bad at telling jokes—and often, I’m the one laughing last after I’ve had a moment to analyze the punchline!
I don’t have a single favorite book, movie, or podcast because I believe in constantly seeking new knowledge and experiences. But what I’d like to be remembered for is simple: as a kind, respectful, and inclusive person who dedicated his life to serving others.
