About Derek Batista
 In 1991 my fitness education began in a small intimate gym called Butch's Fitness Fitness World owned by none other than Butch Nieves. Over the years Butch and I became close friends and when he decided to start a new fitness venture he asked me to come along with him. So in 2005 I became a certified fitness professional and began my exciting new career in fitness education. Over the years I have learned so much about the body but more importantly I learned about the power of the mind! The old saying "If you can conceive it you can achieve it" certainly hits home for me. Believing you can achieve something is without a doubt the most important factor in becoming successful in life and I consider it an honor and a privilege helping our clients believe they can achieve their fitness goals. I feel blessed being able to wake up every morning and walk into Mr Americas Personal Training and see with my own eyes the desire and determination of our clients. I myself had to show determination to get back into prime condition. In 2007 I had to have both my hips replaced due to a congenital condition called hip dysplasia. Rehabbing my hips was no easy task but I knew that if I worked hard and remained patient my recovery would be rapid. Today I feel better than I have in over 10 years and I am grateful to be in the position I am in helping everyday people realize their fitness goals. To say that I love my job is a tremendous understatement and I am looking forward to see what the future brings to our industry called fitness.

About Kristen Massey
 Kristen has been working out since she was 12. It all started in her parents garage with Dad's weight bench some dumbbells, a stationary bike and some good old fashion push ups and sit ups.
When she was old enough Kristen joined her first gym and that's when the training really took off. Kristen says I watched and read everything I could get my hands on and studied to become a certified personal trainer. I began training harder than ever and competed at the age of 19 in women's body building.
I had always loved fitness and finally decided to make a career out of it.
I have had various roles in the fitness industry from group exercise instructor to membership sales to General Manager but always coming back to training.
Why you ask? Because I love helping others achieve their goals and challenging myself as well. I push others as hard as I push myself. I expect 100% from myself as well as from my clients and I guarantee satisfaction. Like the motto of our studio No Excuses for me or my clients !
As well as being a current figure and fit body competitor I have also successfully run both full and half marathons as well as biathlons. I believe in always setting goals and taking things to the next level and push my clients to do the same.
