Angelique

Hi, I’m Angelique. I grew up as an obese athlete, playing baseball, basketball, and softball, never focusing much on my health, and instead emphasized family first over everything. Years ago, I decided to take control of my health when I finally reached 310 lbs. I slowly began my fitness and weight-loss journey. Over time, I lost 110 lbs through my self-developed nutrition and fitness plans. Through my fitness journey, I discovered a passion for weightlifting and powerlifting, which I showcased often on my social media channels. Eventually, this led me to start training others upon request, which showed me a new career path in the fitness industry as a personal trainer. In 2018, I decided to quit all my jobs, pack up my car, leave behind my family and friends, and relocate to Houston for better living and potential career opportunities in the fitness industry. I eventually became acclimated to life in Texas and Houston and studied for and passed my PT certification. I am now an American Council on Exercise (ACE)-Certified personal trainer. I am experienced primarily in bodybuilding and powerlifting style workouts, which I can teach clients using good form, practice, and consistency. My passion is helping others achieve their fitness goals through body transformation. I pride myself on ensuring my clients feel comfortable performing any exercises/programs in the gym, can meet their fitness goals, and maintain it long after!

Arien

Hello, my name is Arien and I am a certified personal trainer. I became interested in fitness when I was 16 years old because I had always fluctuated from being overweight to very skinny, and always with little to no muscle as I was younger. Going to the gym started as a hobby, and eventually it became an activity that I was truly passionate about and very much enjoyed. As I continued to go to the gym and work on my strength, I realized that I could not only better myself, but others as well. As I continue my journey, I hope to spread my knowledge to others and help them better themselves so they can feel more confident.

JOSHUA

Hello, my name is Joshua. At the age of 17, I started my career in fitness, first as a student of combat fitness and conditioning, thanks to the training I received in the Marine Corps. Throughout my enlistment and my time in college, I maintained an open mind in the realm and culture of fitness and health. Health is a diverse and growing field that continues to evolve, and that growth and evolution creates a variety of approaches to obtaining and maintaining health; which I use to cater to and meet each clients’ individual needs. As a trainer, I do what I must to consistently achieve my clients goals and my own goals in health and strength. I use tried-and-true methods of movement, stress, and recovery to help my clients. The bottom line of all this is that I love what I do and want to share it with you.

Troy

Troy Daniell, Jr. Houston Gym, 1999 I.P.F.A. Certified 2004 A.S.F.A. Certified 2021 Well, I’m back, and I should have never left, but sometimes you can’t see the forest for the trees. There have only been two things that have been completely consistent in my life, my Catholic faith and the unconditional affinity that I have for helping others achieve the impossible (in their minds). I have been blessed with the opportunity to study under two of the greatest in the fitness industry in Houston, John Langman and Johnnie West. The owners of Houston Gym are the only reason I have had all the opportunities & level of success that I have experienced for over 29 years. Thank you both so much!!! My personal training business has been able to thrive for so many years from four principles: ONE, EXPERIENCE over three decades of knowledge in all aspects of fitness & using the latest techniques in strength, conditioning, nutrition & anti-aging capabilities to lead you to the healthiest lifestyle possible. TWO, PERSONAL training is self-descriptive. Therefore, YOUR program is designed, engineered, & sharpened for YOU to maximize YOUR abilities. THREE, DEDICATION to the never ending pursuit of reaching the pinnacle of YOUR health, physical, and mental competence (think greater than ever, because it’s there)!!! FOURTH, DRIVE, you can’t buy it, manufacture it, or instill it. YOU HAVE IT, or you don’t!!! Why are you still reading this??? Come get me & let’s start building YOUR new lifestyle TODAY!!!
