For the past four years, Joseph V.

While Lazo has mastered his craft, it is not something he always had his sights set on. Prior to delving into the fitness world, he modeled for A-list brands including Calvin Klein, Hugo Boss, Y-3, and DSquared. A career off the runway followed, and Lazo worked behind the scenes as a buyer, a manager of high-end Miami boutiques, and sales representative for Prada. Still, Lazo knew there was something else he was meant to achieve.  

Lazo’s signature workout combines elements of CrossFit, Muay Thai, and functional mobility and movement to give his demanding clients—many of whom come from the upper levels of the business and entertainment world—the sort of world-class workout they need. 

Fitness Tip: “Stop using alcohol as a social lubricant crutch, and cut it out entirely. It's has absolutely zero benefit to getting the body you want.”
