Petethe personal trainerGoals:
Pete’s goal is to be awarded “The Personal Trainer of Year!” Pete pays his bills working as a telemarketer. When he is not trying to sell rubbish nobody wants, he is always trying to think of different ways to enhance his training programs. Pete’s passion is personal training.
Pete is known for his somewhat controversial training exercises and has a strong rapport with the local police and law enforcement agencies. Pete knows this is because his training programs are cutting edge and have never been heard of before.

Everyday her co-workers are on her back to get rid of her current personal trainer and find a new one but Kaela is concerned that she may hurt Pete’s feelings. This year her greatest goal is to break up with Pete.
