Helping Women Look and Feel Their Best

Since 2004

Rod Cortizo, Founder

Rod's passion for health and fitness began as a young boy. He watched his mother struggle with her weight and thought, there has to be a better way.

By popular demand, he created Rodsquad in 2004, when many of his clients were having massive success with his body transformation challenges. Many of those clients experienced life-changing results and still participate in Rodsquad today.

A graduate of Fitness Institute International, he received his CPT-S (Certified Personal Trainer Specialist), and went on to get certified by NSCA (National Strength and Conditioning Association), ACSM (American College of Sports Medicine) and ACE (American Council on Exercise). He is also a Certified Lifestyle and Weight Management Consultant.

After owning his fitness studio in Boca Raton, Florida for two decades, Rod and his wife Kate launched their online course, LEGACY, enabling Rodsquad to impact the lives of women and families around the world.

Rod is currently available for private in-person training in Boca Raton, FL.

A Note About the Rodsquad Training Staff:

Each member of our all-female training staff holds multiple industry certifications, as well as aĀ bachelors degree in a relevant field at minimum. (Our head trainer holds a PhD in Biology.)

Most importantly, they are RodsquadĀ® certified fitness trainers.

Even with prior professional training experience, each team member spends several weeks (and sometimes months!) working under Rod directly, absorbing his two decades of experience, and learning the RodsquadĀ® methodology and programming, before ever training a client independently.

As a result, you will experience unparalleled attention to proper form, lifting technique and detail throughout your training here at Rodsquad.
