Denice Trevino
Certified Personal Trainer (N.A.S.M)
Group Fitness Instructor
As a personal trainer, I believe in helping individuals improve their way of life by incorporating a healthy lifestyle. I focus on the importance of exercising daily and eating healthy. Most individuals get one part down, but battle with the other. Coming to a balance with both components is difficult, but I enjoy doing what I do to change lives.
I hold a National Certification from the American College of Sports Medicine as a Personal Trainer. Upon graduation from the University of Texas at San Antonio, I knew this certification would lead me in changing lives. I have a Bachelor of Science in Health and Fitness.
In addition, I help our local children by implementing a fun fitness program for children aged 2 to 5yrs old in preschools throughout San Antonio. Child obesity is affecting children and needs to be prevented. As a mother, I know the impact of having a healthy lifestyle can do to a child.
I love to run and workout daily to maintain my health and that is what I teach my clients. I specialize in circuit training and corrective exercise. I also help my clients by going with them to the grocery store and improving their diets.
As a trainer, I value the impact individuals receive by proper guidance achieve their goals to improve their health.

|  Hi, my name is Deon Duplessis, Certified Personal Trainer at Bella Women's Fitness. Six years ago I weighed 245lbs. My eating habits were horrible. My health was declining and I lacked confidence. I can remember it as if it were yesterday. I needed help but was too intimidated to ask. One day, while at the mal trying on clothes when I realized the denial I was in. Reality shook me to pieces when even size 10 wouldn't fit at all. I went to the next size, and the next. I had justified, rationalized and minimized my eating patterns and lack of exercise. I sat in the dressing room, knowing with every fiber of my being that I had to do something different. Who was this person looking at me in the mirror? Having to leave with a size 20-22 dress, I made a vow to myself that I was worth whatever it took for me to get control of my life once and for all. Six years later, I have not looked back and have no intentions to do so. I went from a size 20-22 to a size 5 in 14-15 months with exercise and nutrition. I don't believe in diets. I am firm believer in lifestyle changes. I joined a gym and made the commitment to not only join, but to follow through with whatever was suggested from professionals who had lived through similar circumstances. I hired a personal trainer and it was by far the best investment I have ever made. I lost a 115lbs. My energy increased. I gained great muscle tone and I felt great. After dropping to a size 5, I wanted to challenge myself. I continued to train for the Texas Shredder Classic in 2006 Figure Competition, I placed 4th and was so proud of myself and the hard work that I put in, considering where I had come from. I must say I am not the same person I was six years ago. Today I am more conscious of what I put in my body, and when I look in the mirror, I like who's looking back at me. |
