We recently connected with Luis Estrada and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Luis, thanks for joining us today. Was there a moment in your career that meaningfully altered your trajectory? If so, we’d love to hear the backstory.
I had been a personal trainer for 3 years before Covid hit for the first time. With gyms and health clubs shutting down, I saw a need for people to still stay health focused, and get relief from isolation. I started TeamEstrada online coaching where I would help clients across the country lose fat, build muscle, create healthy lifestyles and habits, but most importantly plug into an online community where they could feel a sense of belonging. Other people just like them across the country going through the same struggles but leaning on each other to keep chasing after goals, have positive support along the way, and never feel alone even through the midst of shut downs! This is where I want from just a trainer, to a physical and mental health coach!
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I am a 26 year old Transformation and Health coach. I help men and women build their confidence, create healthy habits, and achieve the bodies of their dreams! I offer online services where I build a strong relationship with each client and personalize meal plans, training programs, internal health protocols, and plug into a community of positivity and support with others chasing their own fitness and life goals! This is a monthly subscription based off the clients needs and with my background in primary care as well as years of internships and mentorship’s, I can help accomplish almost any fitness and health goal! I grew up in a way where health was not a priority and it left me feeling insecure and with a lot of anxiety. Fitness helped me take control of health and eventually my life and led me to want to help others rebuild their confidence and truly live a life they can be proud of! If you’ve wanted to get into the best shape of your life and feel more fulfilled in your day to day, I’d love to help you get there!
What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?
Truly the best way I’ve been able to build my reputation is by stacking client wins! Over the last 7 years in business I’ve helped over over 400 clients lose over 40-60lbs and build muscle, confidence, and healthy habits that will last a lifetime! I share their stories and testimonials on social media as well as my own story! Being 150lbs myself when I first started, I’ve grown over the last 8 years to be a very athletic 220lbs and even won the Mr. Tampa competition in my bodybuilding federation this year! Results speak and testimonials go a long way! I truly want to reach and help as many people as possible accomplish their goals and live fulfilling lives!
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
I truly feel that when you find your purpose in life, there’s no going back. I went to school for physical therapy, and that did not work out. I went into the medical field in primary care and I learned a lot, but I didn’t enjoy it either. All at the same time I was doing personal training and coaching, and this is what I kept getting called back into. Truly building relationships with people who genuinely wanted to improve their lives. I fell in love with teaching my clients become the best versions of themselves and I truly can’t imagine doing anything else again. This is what I’m called to do, to be of service and help guide people towards their fitness, health, and life goals!
