Our Team

Owner

 

​My name is Peter DiStefano and I am the owner of Pulse Fit Training. I grew up being very involved in sports and fitness. I played basketball, baseball, football and always found myself working out in the gym. Sports, exercise, and health were my passion and I wanted to figure out a way to make a living utilizing all of these to some degree. I went on to college at Salem State University where I received a bachelors in exercise science and acquired my personal training certification from the American council of exercise also known as “ACE”.

It all begun in 2012-2013 where I started personal training and group training in a corporate fitness club. I was able to help individuals meet their fitness and health goals. I would work with young kids, athletes, and adults. I loved having the opportunity to help someone feel good not only physically but mentally as well. When I started my journey, I knew that one day I’d want to run my own business helping more people.

So in 2019 I opened Pulse Fit Training and it was the best decision I could have ever made. I can help clients with 1on1 private training, group training and nutritional accountability. I love operating a community-based gym where all the customers know one another and create good relationships amongst each-other. There is no better feeling than motivating someone to reach their goals and truly feel like you are making a difference in the world. I genuinely love what I do and feel grateful to have the opportunity to change people’s lives.

Trainer

My name is Lauren Howe and I have been a certified group fitness instructor and personal trainer since June 2021. From 2010 to 2020 I was a second grade teacher in Everett, MA.

 

When Covid hit I chose to stay home and raise my two babies Olivia and Cameron. While being a stay at home mom I decided to go for a career I've always wanted, fitness instructor. I have always enjoyed working out and educating others so I decided to combine the two and fell in love.

 

I started my career at A Mom's Village where I helped women regain their strength and confidence while navigating motherhood. Now I continue teaching at Pulse Fit Training where I get to work with both men and women who are at all different points of their fitness journey. Seeing others crush their goals and show up for themselves makes me so happy and I am truly grateful I get to be a part of that.
