Bergen County Dad Left Job He Hated To Open Personal Training Biz -- And He's Killing It
Aaron Seaton was tired. And not in the fulfilling, gratifying kind of way. It was 2016 and he was working a job in architecture that took him to all corners of New York City, and then back home to New Jersey. After a better life, Seaton risked it all. He walked away from his stable career to open a personal training business, TailorMade Bodiez, with no guarantee of success. It's been two years since Seaton took the leap of faith, and his business is rapidly expanding across Bergen County, most recently to a newly-renovated studio in Englewood. And yeah, he's still tired -- especially wi…

Taut Bodies, Shiny Trophies? Nice, But Not What Hawthorne Fitness Coach Is Really After
Hawthorne bodybuilding coach Guy Del Corso has too many success stories to put a number on. He's turned hopeless amateurs into thriving professionals and transformed terminal cancer patients into champion athletes. He even gave last year's Ms. Olympia the single piece of advice that changed the trajectory of her stunning career. The taut bodies and shiny trophies, however, are not all that the 62-year-old is after. That, he says, is more than skin-deep. "The most fulfilling thing is not about winning," said Del Corso, a retired champion bodybuilder and Mr. New Jersey 1988. "…

CLIFFSIDE PARK, N.J. – Carlo Filippone grew up in an Italian household in Cliffside Park, working at his father’s pizzeria. “You can imagine what I was eating all the time … pizza, lasagna, baked ziti,” recalled Filippone, who has had long careers in both bodybuilding and cooking. At 21, he said, he made a “conscious effort” to learn about proper eating and eating for bodybuilding – frequenting libraries and bookstores. What he learned “didn’t match” with the way he grew up.
