Trainer to the stars, Osmin Hernández, wants to get you in shape!

If you want to keep your New Year’s resolution to get fit and lose weight Osmin Hernández, host and trainer of nuvoTV’s reality show Operation: Osmin, can definitely motivate you! Osmin, considered by some as the world’s most psychotic trainer, believes in extreme training. “He takes it all very personally. He’s very intense. When it comes to fitness he’s a genius,” says producer Eric Evangelista. So how extreme is extreme? Just watch his show and you may see Osmin’s trainees push a car or run in on-coming traffic. “I call it the super-hero work-out. It’s about impact and training people in life situations,” says Osmin. “In the beginning my clients think I’m crazy but in the end they love me because they lose the weight and it changes their lives.”

This Cuban native understands how tough life situations can get. After disagreeing with the regime, the then 19 year-old Osmin, ranked the number one Marine in Cuba, feared for his life. He built a raft with 6 tires and a piece of rope and navigated through 90 miles of shark infested waters to eventually end up in Miami, Florida. Once he was settled in, Osmin kept up his training while working at different jobs. Then one day while running on the beach, he met Gloria and Emilio Estefan and from there his future as a celebrity trainer was made. His list of clients includes the Estefans, Mark Wahlberg, Mickey Rouke and others.

Now he wants to get you in shape. “The mission of my show is to send a message to everybody. You have to take care of yourself. There is no excuse.”

Osmin Says:

The world is your gym. You can exercise outside, at home and at work.

Eat fish, salad and water for 30 days. It’s very simple and it works.
