My name is Rafael Alejarra. My background as a physical trainer began in Brazil, where I was raised and first gained experience. As a trainer, I had both the opportunity and privilege to work with several of the greatest athletes in the fighting world, such as: Rodrigo Minotauro, Rogério Minotouro, Ronaldo Jacare, Andre Galvao, Phil Barone, Edson Draggo, and Robert Drysdale, among others. I have also been very fortunate to work daily along side Wanderlei Silva, to whom I owe a tremendous amount of my success as physical trainer, for believing in my potential and giving me the chance to be at his side in some of the highlights of his career. I would also like to thank all of the above mentioned athletes, who gave me the opportunity to show them my work and methodology. I would like to give special thanks to my great friend and main athlete, Wanderlei Silva.
