Kathleen Gauthier
My name is Kathleen Gauthier and I am 26 years old. I am a
full time mother to a beautiful one year old daughter, and a
devoted military wife. I own my own business as a
hairstylist, and specialize in wedding and event hair and
makeup. Growing up I have always been athletic, however my
passion for fitness started when I joined our local gym in
2009, and it has only gone uphill from there ! My interest
in competing sparked when I was doing hair and makeup for
one of our local shows. Seeing all the incredible physiques
and hearing everyone's journey of hard work and dedication
was truly inspiring for me, and my husband as well. Last
year he began training for two pro shows in the fall. Being
by his side through all of his competition prep only to
watch him succeed on stage was something unexplainable! I
figured this spring would be my chance. I competed in the
bikini fitness class on March 16th at the OCB Green Mountain
Thaw in Brattleboro, VT. I took first in all three classes;
as well as taking overall champion in bikini debut. I also
competed on March 29th at the OCB Liberty State Natural in
Syracuse, NY, and placed fourth. I am very excited to be
sponsored through IREP Athletics. I have the opportunity to
be a part of an amazing team, while receiving customized
training to achieve my physiques full potential. Thank you
so much IREP for bringing me on to your awesome team. I
can't wait to see what the future holds !Derek Fugate

Daniel Woods
My
name is Daniel Woods and I'm originally from Ticonderoga,
New York. I am currently Active Duty in the United States
Air Force stationed in Great Falls, Montana. I began to take weight training seriously in 2011 while deployed to the Middle East. I grew up my whole life always being the small kid. Once I started seeing results I was completely hooked. I have decided that I will be separating from the military to follow my passion in becoming a personal trainer. I am a Certified Personal Trainer through International Sports Science Association, CPR and AED certified through American Heart Association, Personal Training Leader certified through the United States Air Force, and Self Aid Buddy Care First Responder certified through the United States Air Force.
There is no greater feeling than reaching goals that you once thought were impossible. I am happy to be part of team I.R.E.P. Athletics. They are helping me live my dreams and become part of something great. I love helping people reach those "impossible" goals, and getting them to realize just how strong they truly are on the inside and out.

I am a 34 year old Personal Trainer and Fitness Director
at Concourse Athletic Club, also the owner of ETX Fitness.
In my years of elementary through high school. I competed in
a variety of sports; soccer, baseball, basketball, cross
country, and track and field. It wasn't until 2003 when I
joined a gym and began weight training for the first time.
That I really developed a passion for personal training and
bodybuilding. I became a NASM certified trainer in 2012, and
could not wait to start helping people. Through many
experiences of others and some of my own I decided to
broaden my training knowledge in nutrition and corrective
exercise. In 2013 I became a NASM CES specialist and
received my Precision Nutrition certification. To take that
even further I am currently enrolled in Life University
seeking a degree in Dietetics, to be completed in 2017.
I am also proud to be a P4P Muscle Athlete, and now a member
of the IREP Team.
Competition History:

2nd Place Open Medium Bodybuilding
2nd Place Novice Bodybuilding

I am currently training for the DFAC World Finals in Miami
on Nov 1 2014, and hope to get my pro-card this year.
I believe in perseverance, motivation, and the right
knowledge are all you need to reach any goals no matter how
tough they may seem. I also believe in the "natural way."
Natural foods, natural competitions, and natural supplements
are everything that I live and stand for.
Joe Manning:
I am a lifetime natural bodybuilder and co-founder of P4P

2015 as I prepare for bigger, national level contests with
the goal of winning an overall title and obtaining a natural

and am very happy with the results I am seeing. I am excited
to continue to take my training to another level.
