Artie Gardella, Synergy Senior Fitness, Owner

​

At the age of 35, Artie Gardella had an awful mental breakdown, the result of a very high stress level career that expanded over 15 years with hardly a break.

After struggling with too many medicines seeking relief, Artie finally turned to health and fitness as part of his recovery.

Artie was no stranger to the healthy lifestyle … his mother was a vegetarian and health nut before eating healthy was popular. His father, Danny Gardella, was a professional athlete who played for the New York Giants. So eating right and exercise was something he grew up with and eventually strayed from.

After losing over fifty pounds and feeling great, Artie sought certifications in his various exercise disciplines and eventually developed his own business and started a second career with Synergy Fitness, Inc.

As time went on, Artie G., as he is known in the fitness world, became very interested in studying the aging body with it’s special needs, and began to focus his attention solely on developing exercise routines for the senior community.
