Vincent Torre - NASM Elite trainer

Bio

I am a personal trainer certified by the National Academy for Sports Medicine (NASM). As long as I can remember I have always been involved in sports and fitness. I played soccer, baseball and football from a young age up through high school.
I am  currently in my 9th year of career firefighting, formerly for the New York City Fire Department and currently for Jersey City. In my years as a firefighter I quickly learned how being healthy and physically fit was not just a way of life but was a necessary part of my job. I began training the in-house firefighters for triathlons and other sporting events as well as helping to train them for job related tasks.

I own and run Beautiful Bodies Boot Camp and offer personal training in Northern New Jersey.
