Welcome to Camino Training
A New Path: Introducing Camino Training
My name is Alex Saucedo, but you might know me as Sauce. As a Santa Barbara native, this community is my home, and one of my biggest goals has always been to create real impact within my community. Like many, I took that ability to move and perform for granted until acute injuries and reduced activity led to nagging pain in my back, knees, and shoulders. Dealing with that discomfort was my wake-up call; I realized that living with pain truly sucks, and the right movement is the key to lasting change.
This personal journey didn't just fuel my curiosity—it launched my career. After starting in high-volume settings that focused more on quotas than on client well-being, I quickly sought out places where I could deepen my expertise. I spent four years at specialized facilities like THE LAB and P3. This is where I truly learned to see fitness not as reps, sets, and different exercises but as the art of restoring pain-free movement through intelligent progression. My work there was intensely focused on addressing complex needs: preparing clients for athletic competitions, guiding individuals through post-surgery rehabilitation, and developing comprehensive programs to manage chronic conditions and prevent injuries like muscular, ligament, and tendon issues.
My biggest takeaway was this: high-quality movement demands high-level, dedicated attention. It's the small, nuanced details that make the difference between progression and stagnation. This insight is why I started Camino Training. It’s a dedicated, new venture built to give you more than a traditional workout. It's my commitment to applying that rigorous level of care to restore your proper movement, build resilient strength, and develop deep, lasting trust in your own body.
The Camino Difference: A Concierge Experience
Camino Training is a private concierge personal training experience, designed not just as a workout, but as an elevated experience. The name, Camino, which translates to 'Path' in Spanish, reflects our core philosophy: that your fitness journey/path must be as unique as you are. We offer Santa Barbara a refined, highly personalized approach to wellness, dedicated to intentional movement, peak performance, and lasting, sustainable results.
Camino provides a truly catered experience for discerning clients who value precision, longevity, and intelligence in their programming. Rooted in trust and individualized attention, every program is meticulously built around you—blending mobility, strength, and intelligent progressions to profoundly elevate how you move, feel, and live. We guide you to perform your absolute best, inside and outside of the studio.
Camino’s approach is very meticulous. One where we take our time to collaborate and work closely with our clients to identify their true starting point and build a personalized blueprint for growth. By taking the time to understand how our clients move, we provide the tools and guidance to not only achieve their goals but also to rediscover what their bodies are capable of. Beyond the studio, we are equally dedicated to fostering sustainable success by assisting in the vital work of habit building and lifestyle optimization. We extend our support to help clients intelligently gauge their sleep, recovery, nutrition, and daily activity—analyzing whether current routines are truly aiding or disabling their ability to achieve their objectives. This deeper dive involves providing education on how intentional habits, robust routines, and refined processes can fundamentally reshape their entire wellness approach and solidify lasting results.
The Camino Philosophy: Our Core Pillars
We focus on three core pillars that establish our comprehensive movement principles: Performance, Strength, and Mobility. These pillars guide the customized, rigorous care we provide.
Performance: Reclaiming Dynamic Movement
At Camino, performance is defined as moving with the power, speed, and agility that the human body was intrinsically designed for. We elevate your training beyond basic, static exercises by masterfully reintroducing essential, dynamic patterns: impact, rotation, jumping, and sprinting. These elements are not simply for enhancing athletic ability; they are the path to helping clients reconnect with the natural versatility and deep resilience of their bodies.
Strength: The Architecture of Resilience
Strength is the undeniable foundation for progress—in both peak athletic pursuits and the demands of daily life. At Camino, we focus on cultivating strength that is simultaneously functional and sustainable, empowering you to handle every physical challenge with absolute confidence. Through our progressive, intentional training, we meticulously create resilience that supports more than just heavier lifts; it fuels superior performance in every dimension of movement.
Mobility: Control, Ease, and Confidence
True freedom of movement extends far beyond simple flexibility—it is rooted in control, stability, and balance. Our specialized mobility training is meticulously designed to expand your effective range of motion while significantly improving joint health and the quality of every movement. By seamlessly integrating mobility into the core of every program, we enable clients to move with greater efficiency, substantially reduce injury risk, and unlock the ability to train—and live—with profound ease and unwavering confidence.
Your Journey: Selecting Your Path
At Camino Training, we recognize that true, lasting transformation is not achieved through shortcuts—it is the result of committed immersion and long-term habitual mastery. Meaningful results demand a full investment in educating yourself on the profound capabilities of your own body. With this philosophy guiding us, we have designed exclusive training packages that dedicate the time necessary to build meaningful change, ensuring you not only meet but far exceed your personal movement goals.
We offer three distinct experiences, each meticulously composed to align with your commitment level and lifestyle:
The Premium Immersion: Our most exclusive offering, designed for the client who is unequivocally committed to accelerating change. This package delivers a high-touch, all-encompassing experience, meticulously structuring the habits that guarantee long-term, powerful adaptation.

The Remote Performance Protocol: Curated for the individual whose life demands unrestricted agility. This package provides bespoke programming and high-level guidance, customized precisely to your functional specifications and designed to deliver elite results, no matter your location.
All Packages include:
Initial Deep-Dive Assessment: A meticulous, multi-point functional movement screening to establish your true starting point, identify specific imbalances, and create a precision blueprint for growth.
Precision Programming: Detailed, periodized programming based on current sports science, not just generalized routines.
Specialized Adaptations: Expertise in corrective exercise and movement analysis to ensure long-term joint health and prevent plateaus.
Holistic Integration: Structured guidance on sleep, recovery, and nutrition—the 23 hours outside the gym that dictate 80% of your results.
Seamless Digital Integration: Access to your customized daily program, instructional videos, and progress tracking, all delivered via a private, dedicated training app.
Collaborative Care Network: Direct communication and consultation with your physical therapists, chiropractors, or physicians to ensure our programming perfectly complements your overall health strategy.
Education as Foundation: Every session is an opportunity to not just do the movement, but to understand it, giving you the tools for lifelong, pain-free mobility.
24/7 Direct Line Support: Full access to reaching out about any questions, comments, and/or concerns you may have.
I am more than happy to provide an intimate, detailed breakdown of how each package is composed and how we can perfectly integrate your chosen journey into your personal schedule and availability.
