Who? Guaro what?

I‘m a Strength & Conditioning Coach. Venezuelan-born and raised but US-educated and trained. I coach athletes to make them stronger, faster, more explosive and agile. Consequently, I’m all about sports. Lifting weights, eating ungodly amounts of food, and in general all the regular guy stuff.

I’m also big into languages, electronic music, fashion and sports business. Some of which may or may not fall under that “regular guy stuff.” Deal with it.

I say funny shit think I’m hilarious. And even though sometimes my humor may come across offensive, it’s not. I don’t mean to directly insult anybody. I do like to speak my mind which inevitably may lead to you thinking I’m kind of a hater. But I try to hate with and within reason. Make you work harder, become better.

Respect my opinion. I will respect yours. If I find it great, I may even pass it on and you will receive credit. If I find it super ignorant and borderline ridiculous, I MAY make fun of it. Hey, you gotta take the good with the bad.

Lastly, I’m incredibly proud of being from Venezuela. We happen to be in more important places than you realize it. Hence my fanaticism for writing about successful and proud Venezuelans, both in and out of sports. I plan to leave my mark as well.

You can call me Vinny, Guaro, Barquisimetano, dude, man, Pana, Bicho, Estrella, Soldado de la Patria (aka @greivisvasquez), Vincenzo, Vineyard….I don’t care. You can reach me at @vinv22.

What is a Guaro?

Guaro is an informal descriptive term for people from the Lara State, in Venezuela. Guaro is also used by inhabitants of Lara, Yaracuy, Portuguesa, and Trujillo to refer to people (ie “ese guaro”) much like “bloke” or “dude” is used in UK and US English. Also, in those regions, Guaro is an adjective used to describe someone who talks (or says) too much. Guaroloco (crazy guaro) is traditionally said of mischievous or extroverted people. It’s relatively easy to recognize the people from this region of Venezuela because of their extensive use of the word guaro and its derivatives.
