About Thomas Dasta
My Bio
I was born and raised in Gainesville, FL. I grew up a very skinny kid and was picked on in grade school. My nickname was "Bones" as I graduated from high school weighing only 128 pounds. I had virtually no self-confidence, especially around the opposite sex. I always loved the idea of being muscular though, but never really believed I could achieve it. I was also struggling mightily with anxiety and depression throughout high school and beginning of college. It wasn't until around 20 years old I happened to be in a bookstore and saw one of Arnold's bodybuilding encyclopedias that I really decided to make a change.
Thumbing through that book and seeing all the pictures of those 70's and 80's bodybuilders really inspired me. I decided to give this lifting weights thing a shot. Other than the Arnold book, I really had no one to help me. I made lots of mistakes with exercise form and incurred a couple of minor injuries at first. Through lots of trial and error and even getting sick from overtraining, I was able to find the right balance of proper weight lifting and nutrition. I went from 128 pounds to 205 pounds of solid muscle in just a little over a year! I even competed and got 3rd place in a bodybuilding contest at age 21! But more importantly, my severe anxiety and depression was virtually gone! I felt amazing on both the outside, and the inside. This led me to want to help as many people as I can enjoy the fruits of personal fitness so they too can feel great about themselves!
Knowledgeable Training Expertise
With 16 years of personal training success and experience, 8 bodybuilding competitions, and a BS in Exercise and Sports Science from the University of Florida, I’m capable of analyzing your body and creating a program that suits your needs. I’ve trained every type from an 11 year old all the way up to an 86 and 90 year old couple, whom I still train! This has given me knowledge and expertise of the human body at every age level. However, my primary clientele and niche has been the 50-75 age group. I have always loved working with older adults.
Your Success is My Goal
I take your fitness goals seriously. You are an individual and not a number like at big gyms. I’m not one of those trainers who as soon as the session is over will forget about you until the next session. I’m here for you every step of the way. As my client you can choose from private training that best suits your needs from options such as in home, small group or virtual training.
I understand that beginning any exercise program is the hardest part. I also understand that people are busy and don't want to have to think about exactly what workouts they need to do. My goal is to take the thinking of it away from you, so all you have to do is just be ready to work hard. You will have a customized workout plan catered to your individual goals. Fitness is all about making small daily changes that lead to big results. I will guide you in these small changes to your physical activity, nutrition, and state of mind. I will always encourage and motivate you throughout your fitness journey. Age is just a number. You’re never old, you’re always a legend.
