Elite Personal Trainer in Chelsea, 10011
-
-
If you're living or working in Chelsea (10011) and want to work with a personal trainer who brings elite-level results to your doorstep, I’m here to help. My name is Alex Folacci, a certified personal trainer, two-time national decathlon champion of France, and one of the most recognized longevity-focused fitness coaches in New York City.
-
Chelsea is one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods, home to creative professionals, tech leaders, and entrepreneurs who value high performance—not just in business, but in health. Whether you live near Chelsea Market, take walks on the High Line, or work at Google NYC, I offer private personal training that aligns with your goals and schedule.
-
Since 2015, I’ve trained over 500 men across Manhattan, including many in Chelsea. I work primarily with high-achieving men over 35 who want more than a temporary transformation. They want to build a lifestyle that supports longevity, energy, confidence, and physical mastery. That’s what I deliver.
-
My background as a world-class athlete in the decathlon means I’ve trained in all disciplines—strength, endurance, agility, coordination, and recovery. I hold both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Exercise Science, and I design every program to be precise, functional, and tailored to your body. Whether your goal is to drop 30 pounds, improve posture, increase lean muscle, or simply get back into peak shape, I’ll guide you there safely and efficiently.
-
My sessions take place in your private residence, luxury building gym, or even outdoor spots like Hudson River Park or Chelsea Waterside Park, depending on your preferences. I bring all equipment, manage progression, and adjust the plan based on your real-time results.
-
But this is more than fitness. I also integrate biohacking and longevity strategies to help you perform better in every area of life. I work closely with Dr. Kuo, New York’s leading longevity physician and founder of Extension Health, to align your fitness plan with your internal health metrics. From optimizing inflammation and hormones to improving brain clarity and recovery speed, we build you into a high-functioning version of yourself.
-
My reputation is built on results. I’ve been featured in Sports Illustrated, Business Insider, and DailyMail, and I recently set the New York State bench press record (drug-tested) in 2024. I’m also a lifetime natural athlete, meaning every result I help my clients achieve is built on consistency, science, and clean methods.
-
Every session is private, structured, and adapted to your schedule. No two clients are the same, and that’s why I avoid the generic “fitness template” approach. Your lifestyle, job stress, travel patterns, and current condition all influence how we train. I’ll make sure it’s effective and sustainable.
-
Whether you're decompressing at The Rubin Museum, commuting via 23rd Street Station, or managing a fast-paced lifestyle near 10th Avenue, I help you build a stronger, healthier body that fuels your success long term.
