Strength Beyond The Gym

My mission is simple: help people build strength, confidence, and discipline that carries into every part of their life, not just the gym. Fitness isn't a quick fix here, it's a way to prove to yourself what you're capable of. I show up for every client the same way, ready to help them take the next step forward.

A Community First

I'm not just selling training programs or apparel, I'm building a community where people support and push each other. Through education, community events, and quality gear, I make fitness approachable for beginners and challenging for advanced athletes alike, so everyone has a place here, no matter where they're starting from.

Todd Verdell Jr. | Founder & Head Trainer

In 2019, I started FitGorilla with nothing but an idea and a refusal to let other people's doubts talk me out of it. A lot of people told me not to do it, saying there wasn't enough in it for me. But this was never about the money. It was about helping people change their lives, one step at a time.

The name FitGorilla comes from something I believe deeply: everyone has that gorilla inside them—the strength, the discipline, the fight—they just don't always know how to bring it out. That's what I set out to do, one person at a time, whether that's through training, apparel, or simply showing up for my community.

Since founding FitGorilla, I've built more than a business—I've built a community that puts people before transactions. My work and story were featured in CanvasRebel, but the real proof is in the people I train every day across Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Cecil County, proving to themselves what they're capable of.

I didn't build FitGorilla to sell fitness. I built it to help people discover the strength they already have and give them the support to keep moving forward.
