Who is Paul Wassily?
Paul's story starts at 17 years old, when he lost 80 pounds and completely changed the direction of his life. That transformation didn't just change his body, it changed everything. It taught him what he was capable of and sparked a passion for fitness that never left.
Shortly after, the fitness manager at local Spectrum Club in West Hills encouraged him to pursue his certification. Paul studied hard, passed the exam, and landed a personal training position the week he turned 18, the same year he had been on his way to 300 pounds. The rest is history.
