Our December ‘Manager of the Month’ will see you end the year on a high note!
Let’s change the month and as you know also the coach. And that’s it December is perhaps the most special of the year, the month of Christmas, of celebrations, in which we close our list of achievements and focus on what is to come. But it also has its negative side, because it is the moment in which we lose the most good fitness habits, lost between so much nougat, holidays and big dinners. That’s why we need the help of Virginia Torres, @vir_iron_trainer in networks, who will take care of accompanying us during these four weeks. Virginia has a degree in Physical Education, personal training specialist and technician in sports nutrition and integration. He is also CEO of Wild Point, a digital platform for athletic training.
To get to know her a little better and know that you are putting yourself in good hands, we talked to her. She told us a little about her beginnings in the world of sport, what motivates her the most to continue, projects…
How was your relationship with sport born?
From an early age I practiced all kinds of sports (rhythmic gymnastics, basketball, canoeing, badminton or bodybuilding) but it was in the first year of my degree in Physical Education that I started giving group lessons in Sports Centres. From that moment I began my training to become professional in all the collective activities that were successful at the time and I found myself with a master’s degree in Management and Management of Sports Facilities.
Where does your motivation to train come from?
I would define it more as my daily investment in long-term quality of life. If I want to reach old age in good health to continue enjoying life, I need good muscle mass to protect my bones, fill my body with healthy and nutritious food, and get daily cardiovascular activity to have a strong heart.
What’s the biggest challenge you’ve faced recently?
Well, it was the creation of my company with my partner. Wild Point It’s a dream come true. I share my knowledge and experience in the field of sports and health with everyone.
What is essential to start training?
The first thing is to do a preventive self-assessment to know where to start. Be aware that if you can’t train, have an injury, have no discipline, or lack the motivation, you can’t start on your own or “do what the other guy does.” The key is to always hire a professional.
What advice would you give to someone preparing to train with you?
The first thing is to enjoy each day and each progress. You have placed yourself in the hands of a professional who knows exactly what you need. If we do things right, the results will come out yes or yes.
What are your current or future projects?
My current project is to make my clients experience my same passion for this world. But I have one pending dream and it is the following: I love giving classes to a big group of people, so my future goal is to move all over Spain organizing big fitness events. Hundreds of people train with me, feel the music and do their best.
