Tony Cacciola of One to One Personal Training Deemed Westchester's Top Trainer
(
PRLEAP.COM) November 23, 2008- Harrison, New York- In business since 1986, Tony Cacciola, owner of One to One Personal Training, began learning about physical training when he was only 12-years-old, he currently holds a lengthy resume.
Cacciola said he was tired of being the scrawny kid who got pushed around a lot. Due to the lack of work out facilities in the area, Cacciola started piecing together equipment in the basement of his parent’s home in New York.
After five years of self-training, the ambitious teenager decided he wanted to study under Vince Gironda. "Gironda was the best personal trainer in the world. He opened his gym in 1946 in Studio City, CA and had trained stars such as Clint Eastwood, Robert Blake, Michael Landon, James Garner and Cher. He and Jack Lalane was the grandfather of all exercise." said Cacciola. "Giranda was known as the miracle worker."
However, studying under Gironda was a dream at the time. Cacciola said his lack of celebrity status got him rejected and left with one option. "The only way I could obtain access to the gym, was to work at night cleaning the equipment without pay. But in return, I was taught to work out the correct way."
Although required to prove his dedication, cleaning the gym’s equipment paid off. "After a few years, I became a manager and trainer of Gironda’s physical fitness center," he said.
Cacciola then began to work with manufacturers to customize and build equipment designed in such a way, that each customer’s workout is tailored to his or her body.
Cacciola has managed Jack Lalane’s in Wayne, New Jersey, the European Health Club and Westchester Weight Loss Center for Women in Scarsdale. He is also the owner and operator of the Unique Fitness Center in Harrison.
The trainer also adds that his own personal technique of using the color red has proven to be successful with his clients. "You will notice that red motivates people." And since Cacciola has 35 years experience and has trained more than 1000 clients, this technique has proven successful. He himself was trained by the current governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
One to One Personal training sessions are exclusive and have been beneficial to athletes, new mothers, and even a few celebs wanting to get back in shape. "I am targeting a market that involves anyone wanting to improve their health," said Cacciola, confirming he will not reject anyone due to their lack of elite status.
The training sessions are one on one, which enables Cacciola to strictly focus on the development of one client at a time. "As far as we know, there is no place where you can have the entire gym to yourself. It’s just me and my client. We really help clients individually," hence, his reason for opening up One to One Personal Training.
