Team Rockstar Fit was founded in 2008 by Trina Gray, a passionate leader in fitness, recognized worldwide. She’s the IDEA Leader of the Year, CEO Award winner and multi-millionaire entrepreneur.

Team Rockstar Fit is a top mastermind group for women in fitness in the US, CA, UK and France. We help women partner with Team Beachbody to create a fitness income online. It’s fun and rewarding.

Trina helps women smash income goals, work for themselves, set their own hours and collaborate with others. There is no need to navigate the industry alone. Partner with a best-selling brand, get coaching from a top mentor and set your career on fire.

She works with personal trainers, fitness instructors, studio owners, as well as fitness enthusiasts who want to launch into the fast-growing industry.

Women who seek her help do so because they need direction and are lacking the right tools and mentorship to grow. Women work with Trina because they trust her and like her reputation as a woman with integrity and strategy.

If you go by the definition in Webster’s Dictionary, Trust is defined as a belief that someone or something is reliable, good, honest, or effective. Trust is everywhere, it is within our families, or marriages, our teams, our friendships, and our workplace. When trust doesn’t exist a disconnect will take place and mostly create failure. In my interview with Al, together, we will talk about not only how important trust is, but how to build trust amongst your co-workers–your team.

Lori Patterson, US Army Veteran, 36 year veteran of the fitness industry and mom of three is the CEO of VicteliB and the creator of the nation wide, group personal training program, Boot Camp Challenge®.

After finishing my military tour and wrapping up college, I continued on with my career in the fitness industry. I started training clients one-on-one and in groups. And, while I loved my job , I felt something was missing. I thought how can I combine the fun, team atmosphere of group training with the added benefits of personal training AND make it affordable for everyone?
And then, it hit me. I would combine the team camaraderie, group motivation and cohesiveness I learned in the Army, with the assessments, nutrition, and sciences from personal training to create a program. And, I did. And, I called it Boot Camp Challenge® (BCC). Boom!.  Fast forward sixteen years. The program, BCC, is now being launched in 25 states. We have thousands of campers experiencing our program live and over a million app users from 60 countries working out with us. So, that is my story. And, I feel super blessed to have served my country AND the fitness industry.
