The GFP Story: From San Diego Trainers to New Jersey Fitness Empire
Vince and Vanessa Gabriele’s story started like many great partnerships do—unexpectedly.
They met in San Diego, two fitness professionals who shared more than just a passion for health and training. They discovered a common vision: to build something different in an industry that had forgotten about the people who needed help most.
Everywhere they looked, gyms were chasing the same young “crossfit” type crowd. Programs designed for 25-year-olds trying to look good at the beach—not for successful professionals trying to stay healthy, energetic, and strong as they got older.

The Most Important Time Of Your Life To be Fit
Adults over 40 face a perfect storm of demands that make fitness more critical—and more challenging—than ever before. They’re in the prime of their careers, often in leadership positions where the pressure is relentless and the hours are long.
They’re raising children or supporting aging parents, sometimes both simultaneously. Their stress levels are at an all-time high, their metabolism is slowing down, and their bodies don’t recover like they used to.
Yet this is precisely when they need their health and energy most—to perform at work, to be present for their families, to enjoy the success they’ve worked so hard to build, and to avoid the chronic diseases that derailed their parents’ generation.
The cruel irony is that when fitness matters most, it’s also when finding time for it feels impossible. That’s why adults over 40 don’t need another generic gym membership—they need expert guidance designed specifically for their unique challenges, their busy schedules, and their refusal to accept that their best years are behind them.
The best gym in the world…for You
They moved from San Diego to NJ and opened Gabriele Fitness in 2008. It quickly became the place where successful adults over 40 finally found what they’d been searching for: expert trainers who understood their bodies, their busy lives, and their goals. A community of peers who were equally committed. And results that actually lasted.
Women who reclaimed their energy, strength and vitality. Men who reversed years of decline and felt stronger at 50 than they did at 40. Parents and grandparents who could keep up with their kids and grandkids again without pain or exhaustion.
GFP became the gym that doctors recommended to their patients. The place successful people joined because everyone they respected trained there. GFP wasn’t just a gym anymore—they were THE trusted fitness experts for adults over 40.
18 years later and after thousands of lives transformed…The amazing team of trainers at GFP is at the top of their game, doing what they do best: Personalized Training for adults over 40.
An Impossible place to get hired
Fewer than 2% of applicants ever make it onto the team. The selection process is deliberately brutal: multiple interview rounds, live coaching assessments with real clients, extensive testing on training adults over 40, and rigorous cultural fit evaluations.
Even experienced certified trainers are regularly rejected because they don’t meet the standard. Why so selective? Because Vince and Vanessa refuse to compromise on coaching quality. Every trainer at Gabriele Fitness is an exceptional educator and problem-solver who understands that working with adults over 40 requires expertise most gyms simply don’t demand.
Sharing What Works
As Gabriele Fitness grew into one of the most successful gyms in America, something interesting started happening. Gym owners from across the country began reaching out, asking the same question: “How did you build this?”
Today, Vince and Vanessa teach thousands of gym owners from all over the world the fitness and business strategies that transformed their single location into an industry-leading authority. After authoring 12 books, speaking all over the country and hosting the #1 rated podcast in the fitness business space…they are considered fitness industry legends….and they happen to be right in your backyard.
