Roseanne Trapasso
GYMGUYZ Owner
GYMGUYZ Greater Middlesex is owned by Roseanne Trapasso, a former Fashion Industry Executive. Growing up with an active household, Roseanne has been a dancer since the age of two and continues to stay active as a mother to two boys. To commemorate the 10 year anniversary of her father passing from cancer, Roseanne decided to start a GYMGUYZ business to help the communities within Middlesex County stay active and motivated towards maintaining a healthy lifestyle. “As a mother, I know how hard it can be to stay active and find the time and motivation to exercise," says Roseanne. “I want to offer my community an opportunity to stay active and healthy with individualized workouts from the comfort of home.”
Reason Why You Became a Personal Trainer :
I had my first son right before Covid-19 and gyms and the world as we knew it shut down. I found it so hard to find the motivation and time to exercise especially when gyms didn't bring back childcare after Covid. Fast forward to the birth of my second son, I vowed to take care of myself first and hired an in-home personal trainer. Having had the service firsthand, I know that it works and believe in the product. I felt the best version of myself not only physically but mentally, which inspired me to become a Certified Personal Trainer. Specializing in Women's Fitness has given me the knowledge and skills necessary to cater to the unique physiological and fitness needs of women of all ages and abilities.
Fitness Interests & Hobbies :
Pilates, dancing, fashion, and staying active with my two young sons

Reason Why You Became a Personal Trainer :
I had serious ankle surgery and was told that I would never run again. But between physical therapy, teaching myself to walk, run, and squat again, I am currently running 4 races a year! These events ultimately pushed me to become a personal trainer myself to continue to work closely with the community. Becoming a personal trainer has been one of the greatest life changes for me as it has allowed me to work with different clients from all fitness backgrounds and abilities (Autistic, Cancer, Diabetes, and more). I like to show my clients how to tap into the mindset of all goals are attainable if you are willing to work hard. "Failure is not an option," because once you start it's your destiny to finish and reach your goals.
Fitness Interests & Hobbies :
Powerlifting, Learning new movements and seeing those that I train obtain their goals, Cooking, Video Games and Golfing.

Reason Why You Became a Personal Trainer :
When I first began noticing that I was overweight, I was totally lost and confused as to how I let myself go and how I would start my journey of getting rid of my unwanted weight. I wanted nothing to do with a gym but decided that I had no choice if I wanted to live and actively be involved with coaching my sons' sports. After I surprised myself by accomplishing what I thought was the impossible, I decided to become a certified personal trainer myself. I wanted my friends, family, and the entire community to experience the "great feeling of reaching your weight loss goals by working out and eating healthy." I am excited and ready when you are! Remember "HEALTH IS WEALTH"

Reason Why You Became a Personal Trainer :
I became a personal trainer to help spread happiness and joy through exercise and nutrition. About a year ago, I was diagnosed with MS. With my passion for fitness and nutrition, I turned what some may say is a disability and weakness into a newfound strength. I learned how important nutrition and exercise can be with someone living with a disability. Yoga in particular aides wonders to the nervous system. I hope to create a better life for you in the long haul and help you feel confident in your own skin!
