Lucho De Vettori, PhD, MS, PFS, MM31384. Owner/ AMP Specialized in Fitness, Nutrition, Clinical Exercises & Rehabilitation Therapies
"I will lead you to a longer and healthier life!"
Fitness has been Lucho's life-long passion! Since he was a kid, he enjoyed joining his Dad's workout every morning, running on the beach, surfing the Pacific waves, doing Pull-ups on the monkey bars, and Push-ups before taking a swim. Lucho always had that sense of wellness that he learned through example from his family. Lucho began practicing martial arts when he was a kid, where he learned to develop respect for others and a stronger Mind-Body consciousness. Along with martial arts, Lucho also practiced a variety of sports such as, rowing, surfing, soccer, tennis, scuba diving, skydiving.
In the late 80's, Lucho joined the Navy where his values of respect, integrity, and compassion became more ingrained as he helped his colleagues to surpass all physical challenges. Those values and experiences layed down the foundation for his career in the health industry.
In 1994, Lucho received his first certification as a Physical Fitness Specialist from Dr. Cooper at the Cooper Institute of Aerobics Research, and gained extensive experience working with athletes at the Gym. He has since acquired multiple degrees, certifications, and recognition in the areas of Alternative & Natural Medicine, Fitness and Nutrition. Lucho has worked closely with Fawcett Memorial Hospital directing senior wellness & fitness programs since 2004, Progressive Health-Plex & Physical Therapy (2004-2013), The Gasparilla Inn & Golf Club (2007-2013), and now at Beach Life Wellness Institute developing and directing specialized fitness, rehabilitation and nutrition programs.
"I understand the Elements Of Physical Well-being (Breathing, Hydration, Nutrition and Exercise). These physical elements are not just essential for a functional Healthy Body, but also a very important factor in keeping a Healthy Mind. The combination of a healthy mind & body enhances your Inner Power which leads you to a Positive State of Mind and allows you to Create What You Want.
