We were impressed by Yessica Martinez the first time we met her. With her immediate success in powerlifting, her natural talent for Strongman, and her online diligence of sharing training information with anyone who listens, Yessica has a lot to offer.

A resident of Miami, Yessica works at a mental health facility and studies psychology and social work at Florida International University.

While we were in Florida, she took time to sit down with us and talk about her entry into the strength world, her early success, and what she wants to do in the future.
