Trainers at Lift ATX
María Rodríguez has been an active participant in the fitness space since 2014. She found a passion for movement through yoga in 2012, then found strength and conditioning through CrossFit. She taught both by 2016, which is when she started competitively powerlifting. She held her own powerlifting specialty class in Tacoma, Washington and ended up coaching her clients in bigger competitions as well who would have never thought to be competitors!
María has been training people from all different stages, making sure her clients feel safe and empowered to explore their strongest side through strength training. She believes there is no gender, no limit, and nothing too big to dream up when we’ve untapped into our truest potential.
“Experience is the teacher of all things.”
