John Olivas
I coach people who want to get stronger and need their workouts to fit a real week. Some of my clients train in West El Paso. Others train at home with a pair of dumbbells and a plan we build around their schedule.

Where we start
I grew up playing sports and later managed TruFit in El Paso. As a husband and dad, I know what it’s like to have a training day disappear from the calendar.
My first question is simple. On a normal week, which days can you actually train? Then we talk about what you want to do, what equipment you have, and the foods you like to eat.
If you’re coming back to lifting after 40, we’ll start with sessions you can repeat. If you already lift, we’ll look at your current routine and decide what to build on. Your check-ins tell me when it’s time to adjust.
Before you start
Can I train with you in person or online?
I offer personal training in West El Paso and online coaching for home or gym workouts. Ask me about local availability.
Is this a good fit if I’m new to lifting?
Yes. Tell me about your experience in the intake questionnaire. I’ll use that starting point to choose your exercises and plan your week.
What comes with the online plan?
Self-Starter Coaching is $49.99 per month. It includes a personalized four-week workout plan, nutrition guidance with calorie and protein targets, and a monthly check-in. Hybrid Coaching adds weekly feedback and adjustments.
How do I get started?
Choose your coaching option, subscribe, and complete your intake questionnaire. If you’re asking about the free first month for our first 100 members, contact me before subscribing.

How I coach
I use your goals, schedule and equipment to plan your training week. Your food preferences guide the nutrition side. At check-in, we look at what felt manageable, what got in the way and where you’re ready for a change.
I’m John Olivas, founder of Olivas Performance & Wellness. I grew up playing sports and later managed TruFit in El Paso. Today I coach people here on the West Side and online.
As a husband and dad, I know how quickly a busy week can squeeze out a workout. If you have three days and a pair of dumbbells, that’s where we start. If you already lift in a gym, we can build on the exercises you know and enjoy.
